Hi, Welcome to my blog. Let me introduce myself. I was born in Brookings, South Dakota and grew up in the Northwest (Washington State) but have lived and traveled all over the world. When I was in high school my father took a sabbatical and we went to New Zealand and Australia where we lived in each country for several months while my father did research on weeds. On our way to New Zealand and Australia we traveled to several other countries in the Pacific and Asia. It was a great time and I fell in love with traveling. It was always my dream to go back to Australia to live which I have never done but have gone back for several visits. Several of my children have also gone and visited friends for several months at a time. Later, after I was married the 1st time my father was working in Lesotho, Africa. My husband and I planned a trip to go and visit my parents as well as travel the world for about 9 months. So we set out with an 8 month old baby to travel the world. We spent 6 weeks in Europe then went to live with my parents for 4 months in Lesotho. On the way home we visited friends in Australia and New Zealand. By the time we got back I really had the travel bug but it was time to raise a family. We continued to travel in the US and sometimes overseas with our children but nothing like what we had done before.
While I raised my children I decided to take on my second love which was animals and living on a farm. We bought a farm in Washington where I raised my children and had everything I had wanted to have as a child but never could. Later, when I married my second husband we moved to his property, took all of our animals with us and rented the farm. We now live a little closer into town than when we were on the farm but still have 30 acres, 5 horses, 20 or so sheep, a llama, 4 dogs, a undisclosed number of cats as they keep multiplying and live in the barn.
I love the farm and animals but as my 5 children grew up and left home I began thinking of what my next venture would be. That travel bug keeps on biting me so I needed something that I can take with me where ever I go. It was then that I started looking at the internet as more than a place to play. I realized that I could work on the internet doing marketing and actually make a living. It was a great idea but I knew nothing about websites, internet marketing or anything having to do with it. SEO, traffic, banners, text ads, social networks, social bookmarking, html, php and on and on, they were all a foreign language to me. I started reading an educating myself. As time went I fell in love with marketing on the internet. I was learning something new each and every day and the people that I would meet were really special. I could never have met people from all over the world any place else.
I am still learning about internet marketing and think I can learn for years to come as it is always changing. I am now one of the founding members of a group of ladies that call themselves The A-List Ladies. The A-List Ladies teach other women the concepts of online marketing so they too can enjoy the lives they so richly deserve. We share with each other, learn from each other and help other women learn how to market successfully on the internet.
In this blog I will be sharing things that I have learned on my journey of internet marketing. I would encourage you to share as well.
Thank you again for visiting my blog and hope you enjoy the content.
