My First Days and Ongoing Experience at WA

Lemm

It's been about a week now since joining WA (on August 1, 2013). I must confess that among all the self starting business I've investigated and joined, this is truly the best I have seen.

What has impressed me most so far is a "sense of community" where people are able to help each other. It is so much easier than say an MLM business where it could take days before you can get some help. Here at WA, everything seems to be at your fingertip. Furthermore, the top people (owners and co-owners) are willing to deal with the newbie's on a one-to-one basis, something that you don't see so much in a hierarchical MLM network.

I also find it very friendly here, where people can really feel free to ask questions no matter how "dumb" it may seem. For example, on my first day, I asked what does "affiliate" meant. One of the members replied, "a commissions only salesperson". Although most members here may not see that as anything to brag about, it certainly meant a lot to me.

Finally, the information and training is really clear and invaluable....and it's free for the first level. WA is willing to train you for free without any obligation whatsoever. I look forward to experiencing much more here at WA (and spreading the word to the people I know who are seeking for help to manage it financially in this world).

Update May 23, 2014

It's been about 9 months since starting at WA. I am more than satisfied with my premium membership at WA. The two most valuable things here at WA are the huge database of correct knowledge (using articles and videos) needed to do business on the internet, and excellent customer and peer support behind it. For it is one thing to have knowledge and have no one to help you implement it. Here you get the whole WA community to help you to answer to your questions, helping you to set up your website, reviewing your webpages, and getting ideas and suggestions.from other members.

When I compare this with setting up a store with inventory, having to manage stock, paying huge rent, having to beat the mad rush to the store every morning and then rushing back after closing, having to hire staff, worrying about what would happen if I got sick, inability to take a few days off or go on a vacation at anytime, I would choose an online internet business any day.

Not only is an online business easier, quicker, cheaper and take less time to setup (now that there are online internet tools to do it so quickly), from marketing to final sale, but the online business continues to do receive orders 24 hours a day, well after normal business hours. For many online businesses (especially affiliate businesses), you can take off a few days for vacation or sick leave and set your own schedule. There is no inventory control, no real-estate to look after and in many cases, no extra staff needed.

I've been able to take some of the knowledge I've gained here to help an existing online business. Now, I look forward to setup new websites from scratch using the wisdom here at WA. The other thing I really like about WA, is that the premium membership includes full hosting with virtually unlimited number of websites you want.

Thanks again to the owners of WA (Kyle and Carson).
