Today I begin something new.
This is my first blog here.
I began writing this with some questions for anyone who reads it, but I think it is better to simply use this blog as a flag in the sand...this is where I began.
As of today, I've done probably in total about 10-20 hours of research on this particular industry(probably not enough to be as confident as I am about taking this on). I have only just now found out about WA and feel like it is exactly what I need to get my feet wet. As I set sail on this voyage, I expect to encounter rough waves and headwinds, and may very well capsize at sea. It wouldn't be the first time I've tried something and failed. But I feel safe. I feel excited. I feel ready to begin. Hopefully I look back at this post a year from now, unemployed, working from home, and no longer having to hug my little girl goodbye as I head out to trade more time for money. As great as that sounds, I also fully expect to be working still. But that certainly wont change if I do not change what I am doing.
Here's to the future.

Hi Drew and thanks for your first blog.
Sometimes we just have to draw a line in the sand and make a decision that today that we are going to do something that can improve our lives and that of our family.
We have just celebrated one year in WA and the progress we have made has been amazing.
We had no experience at all and today have made such great progress.
Follow the training and take action and you can be in the same place this time next year.
All the best and have a great week
Darren & Nicola :)
Thank you.
If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take you to get your first site completely up and running? How long before you saw profit? And how long before it created a livable income...if you are there yet? I know results are work based, but I would just like to get a gauge to go off of for setting expectations.
Hello Drew and thanks for your message.
We are still working on our first site as we have another online business we also operate.
We are starting to see income but it is nowhere near what our other business does.
In time we do expect our websites to become the main source of income.
We have just finished our first year in WA and expect this second year to be the year of breakthrough, this is the same with most others here.
It all comes down to how much time you can put into it, everyone is different.
Hope that helps
Darren & Nicola
