Hello everybody!
My name is Athanasia and this is my story.
I have been working as a waitress for more than 10 years. I am very tired of my job ,for many years now, and I have always dreamt of having my own business. It just never felt right for me. Busting my ass for a low salary and then being exhausted the rest of the day physically and mentally. And on top of that having to put up with a cranky boss.
So one day I was just googling and I bumped into something called affiliate marketing. It sounded very interesting and I started to search even more, and then I found you guys :) This is something totally new for me and I'm willing to put all my energy on it, and make it happen!
And so, my journey begins..
Update 2017/04/20
Many things have changed since I joined WA.
Best of all: I quit my job one year ago, that means 7 months after I joined WA.
Joining WA has been life changing because it introduced me to a whole new world.
It all started when I created my first website. I started wondering what's behind the visual part of it and I decided to take some classes in HTML and CSS.
Now I am studying Front-end development :) I really love it because there are so many directions that you can choose and because it's an endless source of knowledge and opportunities.
Thank you WA and thank you Kyle and Carson. You helped me understand that everything is possible and that I can take whichever direction I choose in my life!

Hi Athanasia,
I so totally love your name it's so beautiful..
Thanks for the follow, it brought me to your bio which I enjoyed as well.. The start of your bio, minus the waitress part, was exactly how I ended up here. I keep reading so many people's posts and what nots, and keep seeing people writing how they are not making any money, and that worries me a lil'... Okay a lot... I do realize that most, maybe all of them are doing the niches part of WA, and I am going towards the promoting part of WA.. The boot camp part of it I should say.... I am doing so because I just started learning about and practicing mindfulness and don't think that I'm that great at writing and or sales... and mindfulness and soon yoga I just kow are going to be my passions... I just love everything about mindfulness already. I do think that I could drive people to want to check WA out.. It just might be a lil difficult when I can't tell them an amount of income income to help entice them some to want to join... Anyways, I guess where I'm going with this is, I just really hope that I can still get people to join, because I do believe and truly feel that WA will be one of the best investments and opportunities that I will have done for myself.. I mentioned that I thought mindfulness and yoga will be the cure all for everything, well I think I'm going to be adding WA to that list as well....
Thanks for listening to me babble on, but I did want to ask you , what is your niche or niches, if you don't mind?
Well I'm gonna go and call it a night, since thats what it is... Lol! I know not to funny, it's late. But I did want to message you back before I went to bed. Have a great night and message me anytime!
Until then,
Ttfn.
Teresa Lynn.

Hi Terese,
Thank you :)
I understand your worries. I believe that the key to success is to be original in whatever you do and write, to be you. And of course posting content regularly, good keyword research and all the things Kyle mentions in the training.
Something else that is very important is feedback on your website and constantly learning and improving your skills.
I truly believe that if somebody doesn't give up and do all these things, will eventually succeed.
My website is about how to make meditation a daily habit. I struggled for many years with that and that's why I decided to write about it. If you scroll down, here on my profile page, you will see a link to my website on the right bottom.
Have a nice evening and don't hesitate to write again,
Athanasia

Hi Athanasia,
I really enjoyed reading your bio and especially your 2017/04/20
update. I became a Premium member within this past week. I particularly liked how you quit your job only 7 months after you joined WA. I love the specifics in your story. I would like to follow you because of all you wrote.

I'm taking you up on your offer to help with my website! It appears to me that the design that I selected is nothing like what I have when I pull up my new website. What did I miss? Thanks, Athanasia

Hello Paul :)
The themes looks different when you activate them because you have to add your own images to your header, background etc
In the gallery they are being displayed with images just to show you how it will look when you have done your modifications.
I apologize for the late response. I am on holidays right now thats's why.

Isn't the theme like a background picture understanding that content is added on top of it? I don't see that picture on my website.

The theme is like a wireframe that you need to add content-colors-pictures to. It just gives you the structure of the layout.

When I open my website, shouldn't I have my theme as the opening page; the background picture? I don't, not at all. I have another, a basic one.

No. I opened up Site Rubix, then selected, I believe, Site Builder. I then got to the point of choosing a theme and I did so. Does that make sense?
Athanasia

Yes. Next step is to add background picture, header picture, colors etc so that there will be something to show.
Do that by going to Appearance-Customize.

I don't think I'm to that point of selecting all of the above. When I pull up my website, I get a black and white page. In the middle of it, it says, "Hello World". I didn't choose that page. I chose a colored theme with a desk and computer. I believe it is named "Winsome". Athanasia, I don't want to pester you. I feel as if I've taken up more of your time that is appropriate.

No worries :)
As I said before, the theme doesn't come with the image, in this case "the desk and the computer".
You have to upload an image of your choice after you have installed the theme, so there will be something showing instead of just "Hello world".

Where do I find those images? Is all of this in the training that I haven't gotten to yet?

Thanks so much for the info, but more importantly your time. By the way, I've through the website questions (with your help). I'm now moving through C1.

Aloha Athanasia. Take pride in the fact that you do have a job and work hard at it. Be the best waitress you can be and take that same attitude as you move forward in the WA community. With patience and perserverence, you will soon be saying goodbye to your cranky boss. Best of luck on your journey. Gil

Hello,
Thanks for following, I followed you too. I think your story is very similar to mine, same here working a dead end low wage job I hate for about 10 years now, and looking for a better life with more freedom. Our solution seems to be it right here at WA with affiliate marketing. Best wishes
