Hello all,
I have been lingering this forum for almost a year, but never joined because I wanted to be an "official" business owner before I finally did.
Some quick background on me:
I own two e-commerce sites. One in a very specific niche, and one in the clothing industry.
My path??
2003-2008: College student and freelance graphics designer and web designer. Started and owned several websites, Ning social networks, and phpBB forums, viral marketing material, etc during that time. Experimented with just about everything web..
2008-2009: Worked as recruiter at staffing company right after graduation for 6 months. Laid off, and now pursuing my dreams! Until my saved money runs out.. I have until middle of October before I have to start looking for a job to pay the bills..
Right now, I am living lean..
My short team goal: Have my two e-commerce sites bring in $1200/month profit by August 1st. Attainable? Very possible, my internet marketing skills are quite polished. SEO, viral, 2.0, you name it, I've done it before and honed them done.
My long term goal: Once I have these sites paying my bills so I don't have to work. I will focus on starting the "HUGE" venture. My goal is to be at least a millionaire in net worth by 27 (2.5 years from now) and driving around a Lambo.
Anyways, that's my short story. I do have a personal blog that I've tracked my entrepreneurship moves since college, but I am reconstructing it, so I won't post a link yet.
