Hi I'm New Here, My Name is Steven James :)

Hello!

I'm new here, well not new exactly; I was a member here 12/13months ago but I went away, now I'm back, focused and with marketing running through my veins.


I can't find any kind of "Introduce Yourself Here" thread so I'm posting this here, sorry if it is in the wrong place.


I've been away from this forum for a long time, I've been away from serious marketing for a long time and I've been 'out of the game' for a long time also. - I've been depressed and not living a great life... You know when your depressed and nothing seems to go your way, you get lazy and don't bother with anything as you no longer see the point, then you end up losing everything to the point where you realise whats going on, then you get jumped up and motivated and sort your damn life out?

^Thats me. Basically.


My name is Steven James. I'm 19 years old and I'm from the east of England.

I started learning marketing a few years ago and had it on lock and mastered within a year. I was making money online from everywhere*.

*=
i) Promoting ClickBank and CJ Products on Blogs, Facebook, Websites and MiniSites.

ii) Promoting Adult Affiliate Links and commission links for Car Insurance Quotes to Facebook groups with over 500,000 members.

iii) Selling my own products teaching people how to make money the same ways I did. (i+ii)

iv) Selling products teaching all I know, Sales Copy Writing, Article Writing, Relalationship building skills for lists and forums etc.


It's a long story but ultimatly I lost everything. By everything I mean everything, including my mind and commen sense. Not going into too much detail I was let down by someone I loved very much and i couldn't deal with it properly. I would have rather lost everything I owned than lose this girl and I did, but I lost both, played, gutted, now I'm over it.

My God it feels good to be back, I feel happy and all overly energetic inside!


I've spent the last month getting everything material and on the outside world sorted out. For me this mean't getting a flat, getting my diet sorted out (and getting my appetite back!), getting back into boxing and getting an internet connection.

It's all sorted now .


Weirdly enough, throughout the whole time I was depressed I kept having ideas and making plans and strategies to make money which I knew would work, I've made money before, I know what I'm doing (and I'm f**king good at it) but just didn't do it?!?!

Now I'm doing it and theres no stopping me.

I've been on the net all week looking about and seeing whats happening and things havn't changed much atall, the game is still exactly the same and I'm here to change it.

I've realised that this is my life, and although I'm only 19, I do not want to waste it. I will be that millionairre before I'm 25, watch me!



Like I said I've done alot of thinking. Write now the next 12months is all planned out in my head down to the little details, I've got plans on paper, plans in my mind and the willingness to put everything I have plus more into this. Sorry if I sound like I'm hyping but you have to understand this is an exciting time for me.

To be honest I didn't even want to annouce my come back until I had some new solid products to release, but I haven't yet (I've got something in the pipeline), then I thought: I've never actually used my real name online. Sinse I was young I was taught to be carefull on the internet so I always used pen names.... but...

Here's my theory and infact my princapals which i now LIVE BY:

EVERYBODY LIKES SOMEBODY WHO IS STRAIGHT AND HONEST.

So, I've decided to be a marketer who never lies, not once. I will be and am completely 100% honest and truthful. This way I know that other will KNOW they can trust me, there will be no doubts. (Being disshonest is what got me in the whole mess in the first place).



Now, I'm sure you have better things to do than listen to some know-it-all teenager who has joined the forum, I tryed to keep this post basic and easy-to-read and to the point. I haven't checked over it 5 times so I'm not sure how this is going to come out, I'm just writing it as it comes out of me.

I just wanted to let you know what I'm about, who I am and that I'm here. I will get to know some of you well no doubt and look forward to meeting the Warriors here, take it easy. I'll see you online.

Take it easy, but above all: Work hard, put whats in your mind out there in the real world, then you will succeed.

Peace,
Steven James.


P.S - Write now I have nothing except knowledge and intellegence. In the markets I targeted; I KNOW WHAT WORKS so if you need any help or JV in areas I am strong then don't hesitate to ask. I'm deadly serious about business, but I'm a nice guy too and like I said my mission is to never lie, not once.

Now if you would please excuse me, I'm going off to create some Facebook Apps which spread themselves like wildfire.

    Good Luck to you Steve,

    You sound like you have it all sorted out now.

    Remember today is the only day that matters.

    Yesterday is gone so nothing you do or say will change it.

    Tomorrow depends on what you do today.

    So make every 'today' the best you possibly can.

    I admire your spirit. Go for it!

    Regards

    Karen

          Welcome back Steven! No, not much has changed here, the forum is still filled with wonderful, ornery, idiotic, brilliant, successful folks (depending who you're talking about...lol) and tons and tons of great info and ideas are shared here daily.

          Stick around! Your enthusiasm is obvious and you already have a strong base of knowledge which is a lot more than some people have when they start/start again.

          Go for it, Millionaire-to-Be!

    Welcome back to the world. I'd write you a nicer post but I see you're from England and I'm still hurting from the Ashes loss last week. Just kidding, sounds like you know what you're doing. I wish I was doing this at 19, keep it up.

    Hey Steve,

    Why don't you start by asking the WF Admins to change your profile name to your real name?

    Its a beneficial move for many reasons but also...

    The word "Predator" does not have good connotations... especially with the popular series "To Catch a Predator" about nabbing sexual predators here in the US.

    Plus "preying" upon people in any way does not have its place in "honest" descriptive terms.

    Not sure how you ask them to do it these days but I bet posting a ticket to the WF support desk would do the job.
