Greetings, Anne!

I decided to use this day to catch up with new followers, so thank you for adding me to your network.

How has this year been for you so far? What new things have you been learning?

All the best as you develop and grow your online business, Anne.

Hello Anna ... thank you for the follow. I worked with a guy who was from Switzerland. What I remember most about him was he took all his vacation time skiing in Switzerland.

I always assumed the foreign language I often heard when he was talking to his wife on the phone was Swiss. Having just Googled it I guess it was not. It was more likely the Swiss version of German called Schwiizertütsch. Is it true that Germans feel Schwiizertutsch is just gibberish?

You have a great writing style ... almost sounds like you're telling a story. I hope you plan to leverage this skill here at WA.

I wish you the best on your WA journey.

Salut Anne!

Je suis très contente de te rencontrer.
Thank you so much for following me. How nice to meet you. Me too live in the German speaking part of Switzerland. My mother tounge is Swedish, Swissgerman is my second language and I understand and speak a tiny bit French.

I see you have had a great start here at WA. I wish you continued success and very much fun building your business.

Looking forward to networking with you!

:-) Pernilla

Thank you for the follow. You can produce you website in English and German easily when you are ready. Go to Google and search Google Translate.
Then choose the languages and Google will translate for you. :-)
I wish you success in your online business. Have a great day. Dave

I really appreciate what you wrote about the starter’s journey. I can definitely identify with your article and of course with you from your beginnings. Thank you for sharing the link. Btw you write quite nicely. Just remembered my sister knows some French maybe she can read it for me. Your photos and website look good

Greetings Anne.......and thank you for following me. I love your writing style. Best of luck to you as you move forward in Wealthy Affiliates....looks like you've got a pretty good handle on things. Enjoy being a part of a wonderful community. I think we (the WA oldies) are all here for a lifetime.

It is such a pleasure to meet you Anne! I appreciate you adding me to your WA network, into your neighborhood within this thriving community!

I enjoyed reading your bio, very smooth writing style. I look forward to what this year holds for us as we move forward in accomplishing our online goals. So exciting to be a part of WA!

Hi Anne! Thank you for adding me. What a sweet bio, very nice. Wow French and German - two of the most intriguing languages - I was just telling my daughter how much I love the French language last evening. I'm working on learning Arabic now and I'm "old" too - hope I can learn French anyway!!

Wishing you the best of success!

Tant pis pour les ponctuations !!!!! je ne trouve pas.

Sounds like similar experience here with WA. I am blown away at the scope and nature of the entire platform. It is also clear that we are all not that different from one another other than distance and where we live. Lots of common ground here. Best wishes and regards, Great profile. Merci beaucoup!

Hello:
Thank you so much for becoming part of my network and I will be delighted to join yours. You seem to be enjoying your time at WA so far. That is great because if you focus on the training and get some help from the community, the sky's the limit. Good luck.

Hello N, wonderful to meet you! Thank you for following me and I'm following you now. Thanks too for looking at my website. I hope you and your son will join me diving one day... would be cool to have our paths cross.

What is your niche? I hope you are having lots of fun learning and I wish you much success in your online business. Please let me know if I can help you.

Kind Regards,
Monica

Hello Anne, I hope you don't mind me sharing this. I just came across it. I remember you asked a question before that maybe there is a solution here. I can't remember the exact details of the question. At last, my website in my language

N, I love your profile! Yes, 'like a child playing in the sand"!
Writing about these things I've had "upstairs" but never able to express on paper! The people!!
I've been to Svizzera ...did I get it right...italiano? Once, as a child, when I lived in Italy. Ticcino! Basel, Berne ...rode on a funicular, which was great fun for an 8 year old...long time ago.
I'm Old, too, as are many here! Ha!
Much success to you!
Barb

Your enthusiasm really shines through with your words, Anne! There is no doubt that you will go far in this online world, as far as you may want to take it...

Your background also is going to provide you a rich source of material and ideas as well as you get on with this online marketing business...

I most certainly am glad to have met you here, and I can only imagine the lifestyle that you have there in Schweiz! The family (a brother-in-law) has a chalet down there somewhere and in earlier days I would go there once a year...

These days I still have some close friends in Zurich, Geneva, and other areas like Basel...They come to Germany or we can happen to meet in such places as Dubai or elsewhere to share a beer and a laugh or two...

Take care und viel spass und viel gluck!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Hello, Anne! I have just noticed that I have not been following you here at WA and I will definitely start to do so right now! I wish you a ton of happiness, joy, and fun while you are on vacation! I hope you have a great time! And best wishes on your online business! :)

Your profile is lovely. I enjoyed reading about your history and what you want to do now. I can tell from your writings that you have what it takes to succeed!.

Thanks for making me part of your network. I will do the same for you. Best wishes in meeting your goals.
Barbara Pryga

Dear Anne, welcome to our WA community, you're on the right place to start an online business! Thanks for sharing and for accepting my invite, much appreciated. Seems you're doing very well, so keep on track and let's stay in touch.

Desmond We are here to help!

Hi (An)N(e)!

Thanks for coming by to my profile. I love Switzerland. I have been there on many many holidays - Flims - Davos - Grindelwald - Engelberg, Luzern, Lugano, Interlaken. Been in many places.

I am originally Dutch with Dutch mothertongue, but have still some far fetched German language knowledge and a lot of English and Norwegian since I moved to Norway.

It's great to start this exciting new journey, no matter how young or old we are. It is never too late to start something new or to learn something new. I have got lots and lots of knowledge and experience within the computer field, so you can always ask away.

All the best!

Steven

Welcome to WA - lots to learn here- stay focused - go through the Certification Courses first - you will get confused or frustrated from time to time - ask lots of questions - people are here to help you. 

HERE ARE 3 WA'ers Training Posts - they helped me - one is vocabulary you use here - one is a detailed use of your dashboard to find anything you will need - one is a plug-in to add to WordPress - that will help you build your sties. Hope they help - they did me Create Stunning Blog Posts & Pages With Elementor! Wealthy Affiliate 101 - Pt 2: How to Get Help and Support at Wealthy Affiliate Dictionary Wealthy Affiliate A-Z This one I wrote - deals with how to "close" for the result you want. How to sell online? the words to use. Stay with it - you don't need a wish of good luck - you need a plea to study the material and stay at it no matter what - it will change your life and hopefully the people you touch with your message.

Dave

Hello Steven. Welcome to WA. I wish you all the success you deserve. You are a honest and courageous man and I understand that you are looking for love. Let me inform you that I am very happily married first and I am here to work and I have extremely much to do because of the language and because of my lack of Knowledge.
I suggest you start with the training, take good care of your Family and one day you will find the one that makes your heart warm again.
Kindly

Shawn - Yearly Premium Member

P.S. Please check out my websites on my profile page to get an idea of what the Wealthy Affiliate training can do for you. Any feedback or comments would be greatly appreciated.

Fantastic self description. For me 24th August will be memorable as I just started off with WA as a premium member. Thanks to my mentor Gary Horton who gave me a clear picture of WA in advance. Well I am father of two marvelous boys. I am from India. Life now starts at the age of 54. So let's sail together to success

Hello Anne and welcome to Wealthy Affiliate.
Since you joined you will perhaps have realized that internet marketing can be a steep learning curve.
If you do get stuck on anything then can I suggest you browse some of the 350+ blogs I have published within WA.
You have decided to follow me and I will follow you as well.
Enjoy your day.
Robert Allan

Hi,
Welcome to Wealthy Affiliate. Thanks for the following. You seem so alive and ready to try anything new, what a wonderful attitude! Sue and I have been here for over 2 years now and it is just as exciting today as it was on the day we singed up. Hope you will feel this way too. Best in all your endeavors.
Bill & Sue

Beautiful profile message. You are living what I preach. Be Aware of today...this moment. Be there completely. Learn from that moment before moving to the next. Enjoy that moment. Find your passions in that moment.

From your profile, you were there -- did a great job of taking it all in -- and, now, can be fully present in the luxury of choosing to be a Premium WA.

As you know, I am making a huge leap into a cultural environment very different than any place I've called home. Our plan to move has changed many times this past year. Often, I find myself feeling I'm already there -- forgetting to focus that I'm out in the mystical countryside of west Marin 15 minutes from the ocean. It's heavenly. And definitely worth paying attention to.

My partner and translator, Jacques, grew up in Paris. His son is visiting his mother's family in Switzerland today. Coincidentally, we just got off the phone with him. He's having a hard time enjoying his vacation because he's encircling himself with stories that question if he made the right vacation choice; if he should be spending so much; what's it going to be like when he returns to his plushy law firm job. Good example of not being in Switzerland energetically. Hoping his 2-dad lecture put him back into a place where he can be more Aware of reality and take it all in -- before moving on.

Enough chatting...need to take in this beautiful, sunny day here. Thanks for following me. Will be watching your path to success with WA.

In good spirit,
Ross

Great goals.

Hey Anne,

Just checking up on you to see how you're doing here at WA.
I can't believe you've been here for nearly a week. What do you think so far?

In my experience newbies tend to have some doubts or fears. So I'd like to address them by having you reading the following: Is This Business Even Real? Are you terrified of writing? How To Pick A Niche That Leads To Success! Please read these short articles and let me know if it has addressed some of your concerns. Thanks,

Eddy with a Y.

Hello Anne,♫Welcome! Nice to meet you ツ I wish you a lot of learning pleasure and fun on WA. Thank you for adding me to your network.

From the start, I have written training for every issue I had problems with myself. I made an addition for After The Walkthrough. Also a list of 1001 niche ideas, a checklist with 25 points to go through before you publish a post, 101 blogging ideas when you get stuck and an A-Z WA dictionary. I just love lists:) It has been very helpful to a lot of people. I have listed them in one blog you can find on my profile. It's the first website link right under “Follow me on” (click on my picture to get there). I hope to help you with those.

If you have any questions, please reply to this message or leave a comment on my profile.
Success building your business in 2017. See you around, Greetings Loes

Hey Anne ,

I just wanted to follow up and see if you need anything. I see you've already taken action and completed your account profile! That's wonderful! It just goes to show you're able to follow directions and are serious about making this business work! Trust me when I say that's half the battle to success online! So you're part of a rare breed! However I see you haven't upgraded to the premium membership.

If it's because money is tight, I can hook you up. Read the following as you'll learn how others have been able to easily pay for this membership: http://bit.ly/afford_wa

At the end of the day you're obviously an action taker unlike a lot of people that may join this community and fail to do anything. As such you should be rewarded for that. So I wanted to give you a special bonus if you're thinking of becoming a premium member.

HOW TO CLAIM YOUR BONUS
-----------------------------------------------

If you join Premium within the next 4 days, here are some bonuses that I am going to be giving you:

(1) You are going to get a 59% DISCOUNT on your first month Premium membership (only $19)

(2) You are going to get personal and private access to me! If you ever have a question or need help with your campaigns, I will be there and even the owners of WA (Kyle & Carson) will be able to offer you personal mentoring.

(3) I am going to be giving a special "Diamond Traffic Bonus"

But only if you join in the next 4 days!

You're obviously not required to take advantage of this great offer. But the starter membership can only take you so far. It's clear as day you want to succeed. Otherwise you wouldn't have completed your profile. So I'd like to hook you up with the bonus above!

There is so much more in the way of videos, courses, live chat and private message capabilities that will help you get to the next level quicker. So keep that in mind. In fact, just check out the differences between the starter and premium membership here: The PREMIUM Membership - In a League of its Own! I think it will help you see all that you'll get if you take advantage of the bonus and discount I'm offering you. In any event, great job again for taking action and completing your profile!

Keep taking action because every time you do it brings you closer to your success!

Take care,

Eddy with a Y

P.S. Remember if you can't afford the premium membership, I can hook you up here: http://bit.ly/afford_wa

I hope things are going well. I know you are getting rolling within the training and there is ONE thing that always tends to confuse people and that is "what is my niche?".

I know, same thing happened to me when I started.

I just wanted to reach out and let you know that I am here if you ever want to run any niche "ideas" by me or you have any questions about finding your niche.

Get back to me when you get the chance! :)

Good morning Eddy,
I am on the way and I really like what I have seen and heard up to now. The first step was the most difficult... . As English is not my mothertongue I will work in French (I mean the content of my Website will be in French). Is this a Problem? Don't laugh lol.

Hey Anne!

Welcome to Wealthy Affiliate my friend! Just in case you forgot, I am Eddy with a y. LOL We met back on my blog: http://www.WorkAtHomeNoScams.com. I'm happy my babbling didn't scare you away and you had enough trust in me to give WA a shot!

Trust me when I say you made the right decision and you're going to love this community! You're on your way to building a long term online business like yours truly did because of the training and support here at WA!

That said, let's get you started on the right note so you can get the most out of your time here. As a new member, the first thing you should do is fill out your account profile. Don't even trip, it's really easy to do. All it consists of is the following simple steps:

(1) Add your profile image
(Can be anything you want. Just don't make it dirty. lol)

(2) Add a personal description.
(Let us know about yourself and why you're here at WA!)

That's it!

If you do these simple steps it will really show you're serious about learning how to succeed at this business and people will be more likely to answer your questions and help you if they see you've taken the two minutes to complete your profile. If you need help on doing this, watch the following video: Completing Your Account Set-up at WA - Adding a Description & Image Next you should definitely check out the "Get Started Here" training. This is going to get you up and running with your own website very quickly and has a lot of really easy to follow video training that is going to help this whole "process" make sense.

Here is a direct link to this training: Online Entrepreneur Certification - Getting Started Level 1 If at any time you need help, just ask. There are a ton of good folks here within the community that will be more than happy to help you out and within the first 7 days of your Starter membership you are going to have access to Live Chat, so make sure you check that out. Just remember people are more inclined to help you if you've completed your account profile as described above.

Anyways, I thought I would personally welcome you. As you can see I don't just promote WA, I'm actually here as a member waiting to help you! So reach out to me. Start by filling out your profile. Don't be shy. I won't bite.

I look forward to reading your profile and hearing from you. So go fill that out now. I really want to know more about you so I can help you achieve your goals!

Speak to you soon Anne!

Your buddy,
Eddy with a Y. (Get it right. LOL)
