Hi, my name is AJ. I have an MBA and have been in management and leadership roles in one form or another for the past 30+ years.
I am passionate about business, particularly analysis and project management. I also really enjoy teaching and writing, as well as video editing as a hobby. I look forward to connecting with like-minded entrepreneurs inside the WA community.
I currently live in Tennessee with my family, but we will soon be relocating to Oregon.
My goal is to transition into retirement as an online business instructor/trainer and travel the world with my lovely wife.

Hi AJ,
I noticed that you were listed as one of the Top Helpers for Lesson 2, choosing a niche. I was wondering if I can ask for your help in refining my niche.
I've always been passionate about encouraging people and personal development. Furthermore, I also believe that since most people spend most of their time at work, they should be able to be happy at work. I know a motivation niche would be considered too broad but that's where I'm stuck.
Can you help me, please?
Kind Regards,
Amoy

Of course. Anything can be a good niche depending on how you spin it.
Personal Development is one of the most popular topics (in fact, it is a field I have specialized in for years), which is good, but it also means it's one of the most competitive as well, which makes it challenging. Not impossible, though, so if that is your passion I say go for it.
Here's the catch...
You can't just come at it head-on with another generic website or you will get crushed by the more established competition out there.
Instead, think about how you can separate yourself from the competition. What makes you different? What can you bring to the table that is unique?
For example, arguably the most successful and famous motivational speaker out there is Tony Robbins, whom I have followed for years. But what many people don't realize is he didn't start out as an overall "personal development" coach. He actually began teaching Neuro-Linguistic Programming at a time when no one outside of psychology even knew what NLP was. He only branched out after he had a well-established and loyal following.
You should consider doing the same. Think about ways you can narrow down the niche to something much more focused, like a laser.
For instance, you mention in your bio that you are a mother of two. Perhaps you could be brand yourself as the go-to personal development person for mothers, single mom's, expecting mothers, etc.
Or, perhaps you have plenty of unique insight, tips, and techniques when it comes to working with children. You could brand yourself as the kid version of Tony Robbins and help this generation prepare for success in life before they even get out into the "real" world.
My suggestion would be to try and get away for a bit. Go to the beach, a park, or even sit inside your car in the Wal-Mart parking lot (lol), but just get somewhere where you can have some time to think uninterrupted.
Then, take a notebook and a pen** and just start brainstorming as many ideas like the ones I mentioned above. Ask yourself, "Who am I, what makes me unique, and how can I offer that to the world?" And remember my motto:
"You can get anything you want in the world as long as you help enough other people get what they want." -- Zig Ziglar
**P.S. I strongly suggest you do this exercise with an actual notebook and pen and not a computer, tablet, or phone. Here's why... studies have shown that the act of writing by hand as opposed to typing into a laptop activates the creative centers of your brain more powerfully and helps with the process. Good luck and keep me posted :-)

Hi, AJ
Just now I did an experiment about adding an affiliate link to my Wordpress content according to your comment. It’s successful! As a new hand this problem has been bothering me for a few weeks. It was finally solved. You're a sensible online business instructor and trainer. Thank you very much!

Hi, AJ my name is CJ and I've been reading a lot of your comments here at WA and I'm stuck trying to set up my Wordpress site, I'm actually having a really hard time trying to figure out how to set it all up and I have found that you are pretty smart about all of this stuff. So, I was wondering if you know of any free info on WA that can help me with setting up my site or even another free training that could help me. Thank you, CJ

Hey AJ! Thanks for the follow. Funny, I've seen you around here so much that I thought we were already in network :-) I have returned the favor. Happy to connect here. I could be your protege, btw. Never got my Masters, but I have a BA and have held management & leadership positions for the last 20yrs. Definitely not looking to retire (yet) but needed a change of environment. Enter: the internet. Isn't online business fun?!
Take care,

Ha! Well, then, that makes YOU the smart one...the MBA is soooo overrated. lol
Seriously, it was fun and I made some great friends, but at the end of the day, all I got was a pretty piece of paper and a boatload of debt. It wasn't really worth it. You can learn literally everything I did from Josh Kaufman's book, The Personal MBA, and save yourself a few years and about $40,000!
I've been in management since I was 17, and one of the first lessons I learned was, "You can get everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want." I still run my businesses -- and my life -- with that same philosophy, and it's never let me down. That's all you really need.
And, yes, online business is a blast :-)

GREAT article. Your description of our journeys sounds like mine. Your writing style is much like mine so of course I thoroughly enjoyed the article all the way from solid info to humor. I would love to privately pick your brain on some subjects but (I realize I probably did something wrong) it was not obvious to me as to how I can ask a question. I prefer some privacy in that process if you are willing to point me in the right direction.
For now, I can honestly say that you article is something that all (relative) newbies should read first before we do anything else.
Here is a brief description of situation.
1. I can write. I think I am approaching 40k words.
2. I have good research skills.
3. I have what I feel is a good and humanly important niche.
but
4. Since September 2018, I have done a lot of the above with very little results and certainly no sales = no profit.
5. To me it seems like I have most of the components but I am not feeling like I have it put together properly. For example, writing articles/blogs: where do they serve me best? Why I am not getting any useful info/help from all of the Google tools, and I am one of those people who spent a chunk of money buying Google Ads with NO positive results. I almost feel like since I insisted that Google change my campaign to actually represent my stuff and not advertise something completely unrelated, that I have been unofficially BB'd by them.
So, I think I have good pieces and now I need some site organization followed by substantial dose of site glue. Naw mean?
I would appreciate hearing from you.

I am not a computer savvy person. Keeping that in your mind, Can you suggest me how can I achieve this in a simpler way?
Any FREE program or software that can help me in this regard?
Thanks,

Absolutely!
First, here is a recent blog post I wrote about productivity for writers. Best Productivity Tips for Writers At the bottom, you will see a link for a free video course I created. I used a combination of video footage, still photos, and PowerPoint slides, much like you are describing here. As you will see, I appear nowhere in the course, and my wife even did the voiceover. So, yes, it can be done. :-)
As far as free software, there are several good choices out there.
I am quite partial to Blackmagic's "Davinci Resolve". It is my go-to software any time I need to create video. It's free and its extremely powerful.
However, a word of warning...
One, there is a huge learning curve, so it's not good if you have no editing experience and need something right now. I've been working with it for a couple of years now and still haven't used it to its full potential.
And, two, although it is free, it is a true professional program, even being used in Hollywood to make some of the biggest blockbusters in the last few years. Thus, it requires a LOT of computer resources. If you don't have a strong system -- think gaming computer, not Chromebook -- it may not run properly.
That said, here is a link that I found that reviews several different programs. I am sure you will find one that will work for you.

Hi AJ! .... I'm really getting excited about building this website and am up to level 2 where i have to be a premium member to press on. But I'm still not sure if it's for me. So can you tell me if i can unsubscribe after this month if it doesn't suit. Cheers Bobby

Yep. And I believe the first month is still $19, so it's a real bargain. You'll get a full 30 days to view the entire program. You can most definitely resign if you don't find it is for you. And while I wish you the best and hope you do stick around, I also know it's not for everyone. So, consider this just a "vehicle". If not this, please look for something else that is more what you're looking for... Just don't ever give up on your dreams, friend :-)

Hi AJ, I'm a bit stuck and the only help line i could find was for premium members. I'm at the training stage where i need to engage the SEO, and when i went to my website it has no Home Title or description, meaning it's not there. Can you please advise a possible solution. Cheers Bobby

When you say "add SEO", what exactly are you trying to do? If you have activated the All-In-One SEO Plugin like the training says, you shouldn't need anything else, so I'm not sure what you're asking. Sorry.

Yes that's it activate the "All in one SEO" ....... when i opened my site to do that there was no Home Title or description on the dashboard, possibly meaning the site was not there!

Ah, okay. Yeah, same dashboard and Appearance, but this time go to Plugins. Find your AIO SEO plugin and make sure it's activated. It should already be there as WA uses it as their default; but just in case, if you don't see it, just use the plugin search function to install it and then activate.

Did that AJ but the web site format that i selected in the initial stages does not show up. I will attach a photo of what my site looks like and you will no doubt know where I'm at, I possibly didn't apply the web layout right at the beginning. Sorry I can't attach an image as I'm not a premium member yet.

AJ it is an honor to be followed by one of the top 50. I've been following you for a while, already. I got to visit Oregon many years ago and it became one of my favorite places, especially the Columbia River. That area is stunningly beautiful - the mountains and forests are deep green, the river is obviously very deep and fast-moving, and there are waterfalls about every 500 yards.
My plans to possibly relocate there never materialized, so I am jealous. But I am doing a lot of travel in Central and South America, and I highly recommend you start that part of your life as soon as possible!

Yeah, I actually grew up in the Willamette Valley, so we are really looking forward to going back. It was awesome as a kid. From where I lived, I drove 45 minutes to the west and I was on the beach. I drove 45 minutes to the east and I was in the mountains. And, yes, we are hoping to do all kinds of travel, South America included.
If you ever need anything just give me a shout :-)

Thanks for the follow. I found your profile very interesting. I also was a project manager but in Engineering. Fortunately my job involved travelling to many countries. My wife came with me on some that enabled us to have a company subsidized vacation!
Sadly I suffered financial losses in the Great Depression followed by Binary Option scammers. Although our retirement enables us to live a comfortable life we would like to do more traveling. WA is one path towards that goal. We do have much in common. Oh, and we live in LA.
Congratulations on your brisk progress in WA. All the best in your ventures.

You need to research it and take it slow. If you are just moving around standard keywords you're probably okay. But if you are using a brand name or something similarly trademarked you will be setting yourself up for a lawsuit.
For example, if I have a domain called "BestBaseballTips.com", and you decide to make "BestBaseballTechniques.com", you're probably fine as those are common usage words.
On the other hand, if you create a domain called, "AwesomeJeepReviews.com" or "HowToBeatGoogle.com", that would not be okay since those are trademarked names.
It's the difference between, say, the word "football" and the term "Superbowl". One is generic, the other is a brand.
Make sense?
If you need more guidance and would like input, feel free to PM me with your idea(s) and I'll throw in my .02 cents.

We live about 25 minutes outside of Nashville, but we'll be moving back to Oregon this Summer.
And, yes, I've had a "bit" of business training... I started out as a direct marketing copywriter back in the 90s, and at this point I've got more degrees than a thermometer. lol
Fat lot of good it does me, though. The big problem with having all that is that no matter how high I rise in an organization, I'm still chained to a boss and a job. That's why I'm here now. I'm looking to develop a string of passive income affiliate sites so I can retire and spend the rest of my days traveling with my lovely wife. :-)

I love your logic, I love your plan, I love Oregon. Have lived in northern California most of my life, and frankly I now realize it's way too dry for my comfort.
It didn't used to be, but I wont go there. We're not suppose to get political if you know what I mean. It's one of the NO NOs.

To put it into context, we have people that are selling 2-bedroom houses out there, moving to Nashville, and are now basically living in a mansion. That's crazy!

Hi AJ.
I hope you are enjoying WA and learning a lot! My brother has lived in Oregon, it is a great place to live. We were just in Nashville for Christmas. We have a son who teaches at Ole Miss, they have four of our five grandchildren. We were together in Nashville and had a Grand Ole Opry Christmas!

Awesome. The Opry is one cool place. I'm sorry I missed you :-)
Yes, Oregon is great. My wife and I actually grew up there (after her parents moved her over from England), so in essence, we're really just going "home".
If you have any questions or need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. We have a great community and we're all here to help.

Hi, AJ, and thanks for the follow!
I'm also looking for like minded people to JV here in WA.
We all have different skills and resources. If we share common goals, it makes sense to join and multiply our possibilities of achieving these goals.
I can do analysis and project management, but I can't focus enough on them because I don't have the passion. On the other hand, I can think outside the box and find creative ways to do things.
My goal is to push my limits while am down here, bend some rules if necessary, enjoy the ride and help others to do the same.
Cheers
Richard

Welcome to WA. Thank you for following me. I'm following you, too.
I'm originally from Boston and lived in a city named Medford. I believe that's how you got Medford, Oregon.
Have you ever been to Northeastern US? New England area? Much more charm than Pacific Northwest, lol.
Portland area much like my home state.

Looks to me like you already have your Niche locked down.
Awesome, some of the largest markets online are in the Making money online niches and Leadership.
So you would have a lot of value to bring to the marketplace
Great to meet you and thanks for adding me to your network have done the same.
Welcome to the WA Community and platform and will look forward to your success

Never get stuck in the mud, if you do reach out for help its all about keeping up with the momentum.

Hi AJ, Welcome to the Wealthy Affiliate platform.. I am sure you will enjoy your journey here with us. The education and training is second to none and the walk through videos that Kyle presents are clear and concise. There is also a live webinar every Friday night (canadian time) with out trainer in Jay Neill (rank 3) and there are questions and answers that come in from the community and Jay himself answers questions at the end of the 1 hour session. If there is anything I can do to help you please feel free to contact me and I will do all I can to assist you to achieve your goals. Just an aside - that is a drastic move - Tennessee to Oregon - where in Oregon are you moving to... I lived in Tide River for a couple of months - right near a river - was simply beautiful

Wow! Thank you so much for the compliment.
Even with my background, I still have my doubts because I've never really been too tech-savvy. All of my business knowlege comes from the old brick-and-mortar days back when dinosaurs roamed the earth (lol), so I'm still trying to wrap my head around the online world. The training here has been wonderful so far.
I truly appreciate your vote of confindence; it means a lot. :-)

Thanks. We likely won't be going until May or June. I grew up just south of Portland, but spent most of my military days up in the Seattle-Bremerton area (I was stationed at the submarine base in Bangor), so we haven't really decided quite where we want to end up yet. We're considering various cities along I-5, and maybe even crossing over into Washington a bit, like Vancouver area, but who knows. :-)

Hello and welcome to Premium. This website is full of wonderful helpers and I have learnt to always use the search tab at the top of the desktop, the answer is usually in someone's free training. Type in topic, rather than long question.
There is an answer to just about every question, all you need to do is ask..
Aside from the Certification and Bootcamp courses, there is heaps of extra training. Check out the training classrooms as well as the live events. There are current as well as past events in here. You can find both these tabs on the left-hand side
Start playing with tabs and boxes on your dashboard, there is so much hidden information, just keep looking for it.
Enjoy Wealthy Affiliate. There are lots of people here only to happy to help you along the way with encouragement and helpful tips. Wealthy Affiliate is about training, but that is just a small part of this wonderful community. If you participate as well as train, you will gain so much more.

Welcome to WA and Premium;
You will find at WA a huge amount of information that it is almost overwhelming. Sometimes the first impression is to think, "I can't do this!"
But you can! The great thing about this site is there is step-by-step information about how to go from zero to having a wonderful website which you can monetize into a wealth-producing asset you could sell or pass on to your kids.
There is also a wonderful community here that can help you to really accomplish great things.
We are not in competition here either so there are always great people ready, willing, and able to help if you get stuck.
Many other "opportunities" and certainly scams out there would have everybody promoting the same thing so you are in competition with everyone else! - Not nice.
I am hopeful you will seriously give this a serious try and I am sure you will be pleased with the results.
Dave.

Welcome to Wealthy Affiliate. WA is a great community. In addition to the online discussions and articles that member's post, the official training is fantastic. There is so much to learn. I am here most days. I learn something new every day.
I've been a Premium member of Wealthy Affiliate over 18 months now, and I don't regret one day!
I'm a business analyst myself, in my day JOB.
Keep moving ahead. However your day may be, take a little step forward. Some days you'll make significant strikes, other days you will not, but do something every day, however small in building your business.
You will read many stories of WA members succeeding with their online goals. Some have achieved this in a few months, for others, it has taken a couple of years. The common theme for those that have reached their goals is taking action. Everyone who has succeeded has taken small steps every day. Do something, however tiny, every day, and you will reach your goal.
Pace yourself and enjoy your journey.
Best wishes,
Paul.

Hello and welcome to WA Premium!! You will not regret your decision to go Premium!! The information available here is never ending!! And the training is incredible, and you won’t find anything like it, anywhere else!! Take it ALL in!!
Follow the training! I cannot stress this enough. Do not skip around. Do the lessons in the order in which they are. As well as the tasks that follow each of those lessons. I often jumped ahead in training, on my own, to only later really regret it. Take my word for it, it’s not worth it.
Go at your pace. Slow and steady is my new rule. You'll find you can't wait to learn more in the following days. You’ll want to learn more!! It ignites a new passion within you. It did me! Gave me back my purpose for living! There were a few lessons that I had to watch twice. If that's what you have to do, do it!
And soon you will have yourself an awesome website. Amazing direction, and the tools that you need to succeed in whatever it is you want to do!
You CAN do this!!
Be awesome! Be amazing!! And be successful!!!

Just a quick update...
I just completed my first article, not including the About Me page, of course. I would love to get everyone's opinion on the new site and my first article (link on the right below).
When I did the keyword research, my QSR was a tad high over what is recommended, coming in at 136, but I went ahead with it anyway because the AVG was extremely high at 9369, and more importantly, I felt a "What is..." article simply made the most sense for what I am trying to accomplish.
BTW, I'm still in the building phase, so I already know I don't have an opt-in--haven't reached that lesson yet. :-)
Cheers.

Hello AJ and Welcome To Wealthy Affiliate.
Since you joined you may well have come to the conclusion that internet marketing is a steep learning curve.
You must keep referring to the training (it does get updated from time to time).
If you get really stuck on anything then can I suggest you browse some of the 460 blogs I have published within WA.
Feel free to send me a message anytime you get stuck and I will endeavour to point you in the right direction.

Hello AJ,
I think you are going to find out quickly that WA will hope teach you everything you need to know to achieve your goals you have mapped out for yourself on your profile page. The only thing left is for you to take action LOL. I’d like to be one of the many members here at WA to congratulate you, on making what I believe to be an excellent choice toward a sustainable profitable website for securing your financial freedom in the near future, and that was upgrading to premium here on the WA platform.
I hope your stay here is long and very lucrative. I believe in leading by example although my back ground is not affiliate marketing directly, I have been involved in organic SEO marketing (that’s what is taught here) for over 15 years. So, if you ever need any additional help please don’t hesitate to ask I will be more than happy to answer any questions through PM’s that you may have.
I think you are going to see there is plenty of training on this platform rest assured it can seem overwhelming at times, but just work at your own pace, and go through it one step at a time: you’ll do just fine. Here are some locations that you can find addition training besides the two training modules:
1. Straight above in the black WA tool bar (the gray box just right of the WA icon) is a “Search Box” that has a cornucopia of information anything A-Z about online entrepreneurship, website design, and other aspects relevant to your new online business. You can find all that information and so much more hidden in that gem.
2. “Live Events” tab on the left – here you will find Jay’s weekly Webinar advanced training they are held on Friday evening 8 pm US Pacific Standard Time is when the live events happens or you can wait about 12 hours then (under the same tab) the recorded version will be available to watch.
3. “Live Chat” tab on the left side - if you cannot find your answer in any of the platform’s resources you can always ask in the member’s 24/7 “Live Chat” (please remember these members just like you).
4. “Help Center” - Issues with billing problems or membership inquiries should be addressed under this tab. This is where you will submit any ticket for site support also. Here you will also locate your premium coaches Carson, Kyle, and your referral affiliate.
WA is a “NO SPAM ZONE”, they consider posting your Domain name/URL/Social Media links/links to your own blogs/logo/company name without being asked to do so, as “self-promoting or spam” here, and this action is not allowed anywhere on the platform. Here is a link the Kyle’s posted copy of the WA rules: Spam is a NO NO! There are a couple of spots that you are allowed to openly post your Domain name or URL (but no logo’s or company names are to be posted anywhere on this site) on the lower far right of your profile page there is a spot just for them (not in the profile introduction itself) you can also post your social media links there on the lower right area as well, and then for your URLs there are 2 platforms which can be found by clicking the websites tab on the WA home page and they are site feedback, and site comment.
What most members do is put all there personal links in the lower right hand corner of their profile page then when you ask someone to look at your site they will know right where to go to find the link as long as you are both following each other.
Once again Welcome to this wonderful community!
Affiliate marketing is our priority: where content is KING and consistency is the KEY to your SUCCESS

Hi AJTrimble1! Congratulations on your decision to upgrade your WA membership to premium status. I did the same about a month ago and I can truly say that I have no regrets. I came to WA as a complete "newbie" with no idea as to how to create a website. Since that time I have been able to create a site and actually have it ranked by Google! Trust me, if I can di this, then I know you can as well. There is much to learn but there is always someone there to help you out then you get stuck. The support you get is great and there are many WA affiliates waiting to help you. I wish you much success in your endeavors here with WA!

Thanks. I have dabbled with these things for years, but found it was often more frustrating that it was worth. I will be the first to admit, trying to go it alone using YouTube videos only leads to failure.
I truly cannot believe how simple everything has been here.

Thank you.
It has been an absolutely fantasic experience thus far. Even had a slight "hiccup" with a site and Support got back to me within minutes, and after trying a few things and a couple of false starts, they had me back up and running in less than 10 minutes.
After going through a few other hosting services in the past, which often left me more frustrated than not, if this is the level of service we get here, I'm in for life! :-)
