Online Marketing Success

How do you think you can help other members in the forums?

Every business relies on marketing and advertising, and more importantly, effective marketing and advertising. I have experience in these areas that I can bring to the table and help other forum members to get the most out of their marketing efforts. As the internet evolves and changes, we must change with it. I'm constantly learning and trying to better myself, both personally and professionally. I believe it's important to help others and share the knowledge you have. With this philosophy, I strive to be a leader by helping and guiding forum members in the right direction. I don't claim to be a guru, but I hope that other forum members will be able to benefit from the insight that I have.

Another qualification I have is being a Certified Proofreader. It is vital to present yourself in a professional manner when writing on the internet. I'm happy to help forum members in this area as writing effectively is a big part of online marketing success. They go hand in hand. No one likes to see grammar and spelling errors on a website. This could make or break a sale.

What do you like most about the EvanCarmichael.com Forums?

It's a real sense of community here. There's such an entrepreneurial mindset that members have that we can all learn from each other's ideas and experiences. I like that members are more than eager to go above and beyond to help other members with questions and provide insight on a specific topic. No one looks down on another member. It's these reasons that I believe the EvanCarmichael.com Forums stand out from other online forums.

What does your business do?

My primary business involves providing resources and guidance for those that seek to work from home on the internet. You will find many work from home ideas and jobs on my ReplaceYourSalary.com website. I also provide articles, tools, tips and resources for online marketing success on my Work From Home Resources Blog that I update frequently. You can also find a free newsletter that I provide that will give you proven methods to build a successful online business.

As a Certified Proofreader, I also provide proofreading and editing services on a freelance basis. Those that would like to take advantage of my services are encouraged to visit my Professional Proofreading Services page to learn more.

I also own a couple of other websites as well. One is Nintendo Games Center which provides news, reviews and releases of video games for the various Nintendo consoles. If you're an avid gamer or just like to keep up to date with new releases, you can find trailers and reviews for the newest games as well as other Nintendo resources.

Why did you want to become an entrepreneur?

Ever since I was in high school I knew I wanted to work for myself and own my own online business. At the time I didn't have a passion to follow and started up a retail website in hopes of making some money. I failed miserably due to the lack of guidance and ignorance in how to promote my website. I lost thousands of dollars that I had to pay back when I got a job out of high school.

Although I had failed, I learned many lessons and gained experience that others my age hadn't. I learned what it took to start up a business, tips on online marketing success, how to register a business name, and all the other legal requirements associated with operating a business.

Now I have direction, a true passion and the mindset of an entrepreneur to be successful at whatever I decide to pursue. For me, becoming an entrepreneur was more than just working for myself and having control of my time. Becoming an entrepreneur gave me a sense of satisfaction and something that I could be proud of.

Who is your favourite entrepreneur?

There are many entrepreneurs worthy to look up to. One that comes to mind is Bruce Berman. Bruce is a down to earth guy that has always had an entrepreneurial mindset. With over 25 years of experience, Bruce provides training for almost every aspect of business that you may encounter, with real-life examples including his own experiences. I have learned a lot from Bruce by just reading his book. I also own Bruce's aggressive wealth audio collection that is jam packed with useful and practical advice.

What is your favourite business book?

“I Got Here. You Can Too!” by Bruce Berman. Bruce is a true millionaire with more than 25 years of business experience that any aspiring entrepreneur could benefit from.

What is your definition of success?

Success has nothing to do with the outcome of your business. Success has everything to do with you. Success first begins with you and your attitude regarding your business. Success is the amount of time, effort and focus you put into your business. Success is knowing that what you're doing will have a positive effect on your business, and more importantly, on your life.
