I have been saying that I am leaving Wealthy Affiliate for a while now. And after all the blog posts encouraging everyone to stick with the stuff. How could I do that? Well, if anyone asks you what is going on with Carl Dill you can say, "He's Yearly Now."

Why I Went Yearly


Why after deciding to move on to something else did I decide to go yearly? There are several reasons. Perhaps it is the familiarly with the platform, or the support that I have always received here, or the friends that I have met here. I am pretty sure it is that... The friends that I have made here.

But mostly it is the fact that I do not have time to learn something new. I needed to buy myself some time. So I bought a Yearly Premium Membership. And I am able to focus on the things that are most important to me at the moment.

Buying Some Time

It is much easier to use the platform that I am familiar with and have grown accustomed to. I am too busy building a strong foundation for my Team to be distracted by learning something new. The last several months have proven profitable and I do not want to sabotage that distracting myself. We are adding new customers and Team members almost daily and much of my time has been used connecting and encouraging.

Time to learn quickly is not something that I have. But by buying myself some time, I can learn daily and more slowly. Which of course is the pattern that WA sets forth. Learning daily and applying what you have learned.

Adding New Members

The platform that we have built to promote our business and products is working phenomenally well. As I said we are adding new customers and new members almost daily through the automated system on our website. Much of what we have learned to do, we learned here. The SEO and traffic is top-notch and I am super proud of all our authors.

They are beginning to see the results of it. Almost every day I send out several emails saying CONGRATULATIONS to our team members. Congratulations for a sale. Congratulations for a new business partner. Congratulations are fun to hand out.

Congratulations To YOU

Congratulations to you for being here. I hope you have been paying attention to the lessons and soaking it all in. I hope you are applying what you have learned. It will pay off in the long run. This online thing is a long run, it is a marathon and not a sprint. Do stick with the stuff! And if I do actually leave a year from now please know that I will always be thankful for Wealthy Affiliate.

And I am thankful for you dear reader. Thank you for reading this brief post all the way to the end. I would love to get your encouragement, your insights, your going-or-staying struggle confessions. I would love to hear from you. Please do comment below. Okay?

Kind regards always.

And continued success to you! I wish you all the success that you're willing to work for. ;0) And that you're here is proof you're willing to work for it. Cheers.

Great post Dancing Carl, I am happy for you my brother!
Sorry for such a late response, just so busy!

Great decision to go yearly!

Mahalo and Aloha Carl!


Frank

Mahalo and Aloha back at you brother. Let's catch up soon.

Yes, we will. Merry Christmas Carl! It's OK to say Merry Christmas....right!???

=)

frank

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you too! Yes!

Some natives get restless when we say things that was y'know OK back when. Never know whose lurking. LOLs!!

Take care my brother!

Hello Carl,

I'm glad that you are staying at Wealthy Affiliate, although I don't think you were serious about leaving?! Congratulations on going yearly, this shows your total dedication.

I wonder where you will be this time next year Carl, wishing you all the best and hoping that we can speak soon.

Roy

LOL -- I guess I have said that I am leaving so many times I can see why you would think I was not serious. No I am serious. Unless I get some referrals here and then decide to stay. If that is the case a year from now I will do both, offering options for I WA people here. There are options. Having said that too -- I am glad to be staying and hope to continue building some mutually edifying relationships.

Good morning Carl, thank you for your reply. It's interesting what you are saying Carl and if something isn't working there is no point in doing it! However, if we follow the Wealthy Affiliate training, take action and are consistent, I believe that we can be very successful! However, another point is that we do need time to take action and if we are married or have a family and a full-time job, this can be very difficult to manage.

My Webmaster joked with me and said: "you used to make a lot more money online before you started dating your now wife"! (I hope my wife doesn't read this!) The reason I say this is because I did have a lot more time to work online, I also had an off-line business and I still have an off-line business today, but it's much harder to work online now, so I do understand what you're saying, especially with family commitments. I actually thoroughly enjoy every second of working online, however, I also thoroughly enjoy being outside with my off-line business.

I know the Internet marketing stuff works, I remember back in 2009 my Webmaster helped me build a website and literally within a few days we were making money! It really is amazing what can be achieved online, but I really think the biggest key is taking action and consistency is huge.

Have a great day Carl.

Roy

This is great feedback Roy. Thank you.

It's a pleasure, Carl.

Enjoy your day.

Roy

Yes fired up! I have made more in the last 3 months than in the last twelve. I cannot wait to see what fate awaits! Lol Thanks Mark.

Thank you for sharing your reasons for staying and I am glad that have decided to stick with it. All the best moving forward Carl.
