I LOVE IT!!!
Hi Guy's,
My name is Ben and I'm in the middle of reading the book and it's blowing my mind!
Honestly, I'm half way through it and it is BY FAR THE BEST book about entrepreneurship I've ever read.
I've leaned a ton about myself, where I am in my journey and where I need to be. It's as though the book was written just for me. I keep finding I'm saying to myself, 'I get that' or 'I've experienced that', and 'I'm going through that now!'
MJ - thank you for putting your book out there.
So as this is an introduction, here's a bit about me...
I'm a self taught web designer/marketer who got myself tied up in a 50/50 business with someone who's only knowledge was how to sell, he knew nothing about web design/marketing. So he'd sell the service, say things he shouldn't due to a lack of knowledge, put lme in difficult situations - and then take 50% of profits.
Needless to say, that business no longer exists!
Anyway, I've always understood the concept of 'separating time from money' so I no longer build websites for others, choosing to either build sites that produce recurring income or buy up high traffic/low income websites, and improve/optimise them and increase their passive income.
I'm also partner in a local dog walking/pet sitting company that I run with my wife which we do because we love it. The income from this business is attached to time but this is a lifestyle CHOICE that is afforded to us by the income from the websites that I own and maintain.
I'm fortunate enough to have a good life - I'm no millionaire and I have a LOT to learn so hopefully this forum is the place for me.
I look forward to meeting you all in the forum!
Best,
Ben Doyle
