Hello friends,
I am originally computer programmer and I started my career working for big commerce store in 1999 on their IBM - AS/400 machine coding RPG, Cobol and fixing "Y2K problem". Not long after that I realized that I need something more entertaining and more fun as I got bored watching black screen with green letters and could not see myself all life doing it! So I learned Flash and Photoshop and html coding etc and I changed my carrier to be web designer / coder. Worked for US company for 7 years where I became manager and had 5 great workers under my supervision. While I was working and playing video games at home at night I realized that I am wasting my time playing video games and that time spent playing games could actually be my time to make money online. I started to learn about internet marketing, SEO, SEM etc ... So 2003 I made first money online selling some t-shirts. I got better in making online money and promoting affiliate programs that 2007 was the best year ever for me where I hit $220k / year and I decided to quit my day job shortly after that. Not too long after that I got called by tax man to check how come I made so much money. That is when I learned that I should open corporation instead depositing all money on my personal account ... Since that time I have been on and off with day job but I still own couple of great websites in Travel niche. I am looking forward to open eCommerce store and to have my own products as well to learn more about eCommerce, dropshipping etc. I am as well here to share my knowledge with others on the forum and to help as much as I can! If you are in Toronto are send me PM lets talk! Its better if share ideas and we are surrounded by entrepreneurial minded friends
Cheers!
