My Journey So Far


aj and dave walker

OK so I am going to recap on where I am up to with my journey to online wealth and freedom.

I spoke on a previous post of the need for a mentor, and how I did a lot of research in finding my first mentor.

That first mentor advised students not to enter the Internet Marketing niche as a newbie, because you have no credibility in that area, no social proof, no previous success in the niche.  So, of course, I took the advice.

But I had no idea which niche to enter! I did loads of research on target markets, and decided to enter the parenting niche.

I thought this is an area that I know about and can speak with authority, and could be lucrative.  BUT the key was that I was not passionate about the subject!

Now don’t get me wrong – I’ve been a parent for 23 years and love my kids – but did not want to talk about being a parent!  I wanted to talk about Internet Marketing, because that is where my current passion was and still is.

In other words I was not passionate about my niche, and I believe that this is CRUCIAL. You must be passionately interested in what you are talking about, otherwise that lack of passion will come through in your writing.

So – write with passion is my advice today folks!

However on the positive side during my time with my first mentor I did learn loads about how to set up my blog, which plugins to use, how to set up analytics, write powerful posts, write my first ebook, set up a squeeze page, set up a shopping cart.  So I learned the basics, which has allowed me to quickly set up this blog.

I hope that this time my passion for the subject will shine through!

OK so we are up to the point where I found my new mentor!

This is only a couple of weeks ago and I have since set up this blog following his advice. I have been advised to set up a blog in my own name, in the Internet Marketing niche, and to tell my story – which is EXACTLY what I have wanted to do from the beginning.

Who is this fabulous person, I hear you ask – ALEX JEFFREYS, of course!
