My journey so far!

So I guess it's time to write my first blog in here. I feel like getting to this point has probably taken me much longer than it would have most other people, but I got here eventually!

Until a few weeks ago, I've been working full-time in the Travel Industry, which involves lots of planes, hours in a cars and evening and weekend work, often not having a day off for several weeks at a time. I wanted out! I'd tried a couple of MLMs but my working hours made the required 'consistency' too hard, so when I read about WA I thought this could be a better option.

Fitting in training whilst I had a few spare hours in hotels or at airports, my progress has been slow. The most frustrating bit being that by the time I get back into a session, I'd forgotten what I'd already learnt! I'm now trying to write notes as I go so I can refer back to remind myself.

My niche is cruising, this is the industry I know best after 6 years working for a cruise line and it's an industry which is booming in Australia. I also have many contacts within the travel world so when I have my site monetized, I can promote it within this industry, to help Travel Agents learn more about the various ships. Having resigned from my job now, I'm in a privileged position of continuing to cruise with my fiance who works on board, giving me more time to make WA a priority and continue to gain knowledge on my subject.

My success is very simple - I'm not a techy person and had no clue how to build a website. Just having my own domain live, looking like a proper website, with a few articles live is a massive achievement for me!

My biggest goal for the next 3 months is to start making some money!! Beyond that, I'd like to be earning enough to cover my monthly expenses/reach my previous salary...if not more.

I'm loving the community that WA has, the help that everyone offers, and the support I feel is always available - particularly to such a novice! Thank you in advance for reading :)
