Greetings and Welcome to my site.
I’m so glad that you are here. I appreciate you spending a few
minutes to learn a little about me and what I
do.
Since you are here at this site, then chances are you are
considering making a change in your life and
looking for a way
to do that. I hope my story inspires you and
helps you in your process.
My Story….
I’ve been a corporate professional for about 22 years. I began my
career in 1987. I’ve enjoyed my career and have
gained responsibility and skills along the way
to help me become a strong leader. I’ve grown as
a person and as a
professional as a result of my experiences. I am
thankful for that.
I’ve always been a bit entrepreneurial and it’s come out in my
career path as well as in my personal interests.
I have been involved with a number of home
businesses from MLM to vending machines to real
estate. My goal in the
past had always been to build a successful home
business for the future and to ensure a solid
retirement. I love a good
challenge and love to learn, so I really found
enjoyment in home business.
Over time, I had experienced some success but nothing huge to
really talk about. However, I kept moving
forward.
During that time, some things started to change a bit in my line of
work. I had gone through acquisitions,
restructures
and things over the years, but things began to
change. I took a pretty big risk (although an
educated one risk….a big one)
in 2003 and it did not pay out. I experienced
some transition as a result. The transitions
seemed to keep coming
(I’ll spare all of the details)
In fact, I have personally experienced more transition in the last
5 years than the entire 15+ years prior to that
put
together.
The Turning Point….
The turning point for me was when I was restructured out of my job
in late 2006 the day before knee surgery and was
faced with “8 weeks to no paycheck”….it was a
total shock…that completely changed my
perspective…..and my game plan.
I realized for the first time in my professional
career that I could actually lose my job. That
may sound funny, but I never
thought about it before (experience, track
record, promotions, references, etc…) why would
you? I found a good job
soon thereafter, BUT I also put focus on
figuring out how to be successful at a home
business at the same time!
The Breakthrough….
Over the years I have spent countless hours and thousands… no,
actually tens of thousands of dollars on
figuring all of
this home business “stuff” out. I learned from
trial and error. I experienced my first major
success in the fall of 2007.
I enjoyed what I was doing; I was making money
and having a blast! However, I wasn’t sure if
what I was doing was
going to last forever. I was promoting a
program, not a long term business. So while
experiencing great success,
I kept researching and learning more about the
internet, online marketing and home business in
general.
The Journey….
Like I said, I love to learn. Boy did I learn over the months! I
also spent a ton of money and countless hours
going
through courses, sitting on webinars and signing
up for coaching and training….on and on. I
literally spent all of my free
time in the evenings and weekends doing this…….
Yes, I learned how to market online. But I also
learned that most
people don’t want to go through what I did in
order to learn the same things! It’s not really
that hard….BUT it’s confusing
as can be! So it takes time- lots of time to
learn and then to implement.
I’m thankful that I’ve gone through this process, but coming full
circle now I realize that success with a home
business
comes down to this. Two things are
crucial:
-
The business must be simple
-
It must be something most people can
duplicate with modest effort
I have rolled my experience and effort into a long term,
significant business that is simple and ultra-
leveraged.
It’s structured with the new marketer in mind.
I enjoy helping new marketers and “not so new”
marketers who have
been caught up in all of the hoopla online and
are finally ready to just boil things down and
focus on one business.
Helping serious people find success is meaningful.
On the interest and hobby front…..
I am an avid Bikram Yoga student. My idea of fun
is 90 minutes in 105 degree heat doing 26 yoga
postures… twice!
My volunteer work is a priority of mine and I
just love it. I volunteer at the local animal
shelter near my home. I do
anything from dog training, to off site
adoptions and events to fostering ill or under
socialized puppies and dogs. Supporting various
sanctuaries and rescue groups is a big part of
what I enjoy as well. I really believe it’s all
about enjoying what you do and making a
difference.
Enjoy the rest of this site and respective

Wishing You Life’s Best,
Maureen
