The fact that you are 'here' assumes you know how to read, understand, use search bars and resources to find what you want, type, follow instructions, use the internet, organize, manage apps and programs (for reading eBooks), have a device of some kind (cell, tablet, laptop, computer), an internet connection, and can make decisions (what interests you and what doesn't) and more. Pretty impressive set of skills you have there, hey?!…and they are ALL you need to do what you want yourself, for almost nothing; within days! After being told it was SO hard, that I needed a college degree, it costs a fortune on your own and more for a 'professional', blah blah blah...for over a year by way too many people; I finally remembered that my brain works too, and did some searches of my own. And looky-looky; within days I had created and launched what is (apparently) impossible for us 'regular folk' to do! LOL Once my blood pressure settled back down to normal and my voice came back from all the yelling (at my laptop screen as I learned the hard way what I now show you how to avoid); I decided to write a short yet extremely informative guide that explains how to get from 'I wish' to 'I already did that' with YOUR goals and on YOUR terms, for almost any type of business, brand or personal message you have! I tell you the easy-peasy shortcuts I found after over 2 years of on and off again attempts, sighs, mild threats and uncontrolled laughter at things that were not supposed to be funny which will save you the pain, frustration and hopefully eliminate your need for a punching bag, (I AM KIDDING OF COURSE)! There are NO pictures, but if you are doing anything online it is a natural assumption that you have some creativity or talent and an imagination; so instead let each 1,000 words paint the scene for you, or better yet use a different device to refer to sites as explained so you can follow along visually (I explain why I don't use pics in the book). This guide walks you through a checklist of what you need, account setups, building your site, all related marketing, advertising, optimization, social media, possible legal and business tips to be aware of in several industries, and more to put you 'on the radar' worldwide Learn which sites and companies I use(d) and why I recommend them with links to some, what steps to take and in which order to make the most of your time, and a whole slew of shortcuts and pointers that will show you how to tweak your site/pages/posts using different free analytical and statistical services so your business/brand message is as clear and accessible as possible! Includes checklists for often unthought-of requirements for new (and existing) businesses in legal, financial, government, etc. issues; so that your "butt" is fully covered and you won't have to backtrack too often! Change YOUR perspective from "it is what it is" to "IT WILL BE WHAT I MAKE IT"...and NEVER GIVE UP! You could be ONE SECOND away from success, but you fail for sure if you quit now!
