Genesis

So here it goes, I want to be financially shackles free…..I have been a subscriber of Martin Avis’ Kickstart Daily ezine for the past 4 years. Through him, I have learned that it is possible to earn money online as long as you have a real passion for it and is serious about its possibilities. I did start my own website called www.infosponge.net circa 2003.  The purpose of the original website was to share as a newbie on what’s happening in my world of internet marketing, with doses of inspiration and a weekly ezine titled Cuppa of the week or something along that line. That was when I was residing in the UK on a 2 year working holiday visa. Suffice to say, nothing came out of that website, and it was neglected as I lacked focus and what I truly wanted to do.

Back to present moment and 4 years later, now back in my homeland Malaysia, I have decided to get back on the horse’s back and give myself a good one (1) year to build an online business presence.

To quote from Martin Avis’s recommendation on this book for internet newbies “Licensed to Quit”

 One such book is ‘Licensed to Quit’ by Kickstart reader
and forum regular Tony Shepherd and his business
partner Sara Brown.Man it’s good. I’ve had the book for a few days now,
but haven’t been allowed to tell you about it until
now.Tony and Sara have been selling the book to their own
subscribers at a special discount before it goes live
on ClickBank. They have very generously offered to let
you have the same deal.Believe me, it’s a steal.What is ‘Licensed to Quit’ about?Part one of the book talks about the importance of
having your own product to sell, how you can quickly
and easily get one without having to do very much work,
and how to create a system to get the maximum revenue
from your work – even if you give it away for free!It is good, solid, tried and tested advice from a pair
of seasoned Internet marketers who only describe
systems and strategies that they have tested and proved
for themselves. There is absolutely no fluff and no
vague theory. This stuff works.Part two of the book gets into the meat of the system
that Tony and Sara actually use to launch their own
products and create hundreds or thousands of dollars of
income – even without lists to market to. Once again,
it is real-life information that works.Who is the book aimed at? Certainly newbies will find
it refreshingly easy to understand and apply. There
aren’t a whole lot of difficult concepts to learn, just
plain common sense. Advanced Internet marketers will
also get a lot out of ‘Licensed to Quit’ because it
teaches a fully-formed system that is easy to put into
action.Action is, of course, the key to success. Action to
apply the things you learn and action to grasp the
nettle and decide that Internet marketing is the way
forward for you.

Incidentally, for all those many Kickstarters who
bought the excellent “20/20′ course from Michael Green
a few months ago, ‘Licensed to Quit’ is a perfect
companion because it gives you an alternative method of
promoting your products that doesn’t rely on finding JV
partners.

This is a limited time offer. The discount will only
apply until Tony and Sara put the book on ClickBank at
the full price, so if I were you, I’d bite their hands
off!

His review of the book has inspired me to take a look at the sales page for the book and at $27, is not too expensive for me after the obligatory currency conversion but by no way its cheap either (RM95) for a 52 page e-book. The straight-forward sales page persuaded me to take stock of my life, after all my 2008 goal is to purchase my first property.

Initially, I was thinking of using my bonus to buy a Braun Buffel leather bag, but I rather think this is a better way to spend my hard-earned money, to learn and apply something that can make me more money.

So, I have just downloaded the book last night after paying with my credit card via Pay Pal, and printed it out just today. I will update on this blog my path to get the license to quit my job.

I want and will it to happen.

Merry Christmas!
