Hi everyone!
My name is Shawn, I am now 59 years of age and my family and I live in Ottawa, Canada.

--------------------------------
UPDATE as of October, 2020. I have now been retired for 4 months and absolutely loving it!!! It gives me that much more time to work on my website. Remember to ask members any questions you may have and if you have any technical issues, Site Support is fantastic!! Stay safe everyone!
---------------------------------

I joined the Wealthy Affiliate community in January 2016 when I was 56 years young. Over the years, I have looked at various ways to supplement my income, including different MLM companies. Nothing ever came of those and then I came across the Wealthy Affiliate program. I have to admit, I was both skeptical and intrigued at the same time, given my previous history. I did a lot of research (mainly looking for negative reviews), and to my surprise, didn't find any!!!!

I am looking to retire in the next year and in between the golf course and my family, I thought this would be a great opportunity to meet new people and learn about affiliate marketing and hopefully add to my retirement income in the process.

All the best to you!

Shawn

Excellent Shawn, I know you will achieve your goals. As you start seeing more progress and results, you will be able to spend more time on your business.

When I started out online, I had limited time because I was in school full time and I was able to achieve "full time" status within the online business world in a year. I totally understand that we all have "time" issues in life, but I absolutely know you can do the same and accomplish the same sort of success!

Take action on the training here, immerse yourself within the community, and ask for help when you need it. This is your sure path to your own personal goals and successes Shawn! :)

I have just one word...Wow! I took a sneak peak at your websites, I am just amazed. Everything is crystal clear and easy to navigate, but most importantly, they are bursting with information. I hope one day I can follow in your examples and be successful. To be honest, when I first saw your websites, I was kind of nervous because I kept thinking to myself "How am I ever going to do this?" I am a new premium member on WA, having joined only a few days ago, and I don't have all of the training down yet. However, after really navigating your sites and seeing the content that you present, it gave me motivation to just keep trying and not give up. If I can present a website even half as amazing as yours, I would be happy. Slowly, as I go through the training on WA (which is more than helpful, by the way), I know I can be as successful as you. Anyways, sorry I'm making you read a ton, but just wanted to thank you for inspiration.

Shawn, thanks for following me. Nice to see another Canadian who is close to my age here. We share a heck of a lot in common. I've tried various MLMs and nothing really came of them. I've dabbled in some party-plan direct sales opportunities, which I enjoyed more than straight MLM, but I want more freedom than you can have by building and coaching a team.

And I, too, am looking to retire next year. My sister-in-law lives in Ottawa, so if I'm ever out that way, maybe I'll show up on your doorstep! :)

Go Senators!

My pleasure Derek! It is nice to see a fellow Canadian in the WA community. It does sound like we have a lot in common with regards to trying out different ways to supplement our incomes.

Whereabouts does your sister-in-law live in Ottawa? Maybe we will run into each other if you pay her a visit! Whereabouts do you live?

Best regards,

Shawn

Hello, and thank you!

Being new to the community is both a challenge and a blessing. I think the challenge will be to me (and about me and what will work for me) while the blessing is when you get to know new friends and people who can guide you and advise you about what to do next.

I'll surely be bothering you with questions soon enough, for now, I just want to say cheers!

Hi Shawn,

I can relate to your boostyourretirementincome site totally! Your site is awesome looking!

So since joining WA and putting that site up, can you tell me if it has actually made you any significant revenue?

My WA journey is only just beginning. My SiteRubix site is just about complete for my niche and I have purchased my final domain for it. I am getting anxious to get my site moved and start generating interest, traffic and ranking. Like yourself, I am an IT professional for about 28 years now. I am aware of web sites and how to make money online, just not my specialty. So I am doing lots of training and learning all I can.

Being a WA member is a great place for me hone my skills. Everyone is great with help and support.

Thank you for helping me! My site is also posted n my profile page. I would appreciate your feedback.

Thank you,
Tony

Shawn,I am having such a hard time. I went back trough boot camp where Kyle says to choose 3 themes. I did that and now my company name does not appear on any of my pages. I am really lost as to what to do next. Don't want to bother you, just wanted you to know what is going on.
