I enjoy reading books, so I will check this out. If only I heard about PaidBooks decades ago, as I am always reading a book.

I am willing to show off my bald head and my grey/white beard. I hope I look somewhat trustworthy. Or at least mature. It's easy to be afraid to be 'exposed' on the internet but I don't want fear to get in my way. I hope that with my photo, people can see that I am a real person willing to reach out to others. 'Know, Like and Trust.'

Thanks for all the advise. This is what I am learning - don't promote your primary business on safe lists and traffic exchanges or even on social media but promote other traffic or advertising programs. I am a little surprised to learn that squeeze pages don't convert very well, as this is what I have been taught to build a list. But it seems that what does convert is to offer something first, such as a free report. This does make better sense and better business sense - offer a free sample to encourage people to give back, such their name and email. I do want to build trust and be honest.

I am Rick White and live in central Texas. And right now, we are experiencing the outerskirts of one of the worse hurricanes to hit the Texas coast. Even though I live hundreds of miles inland from where the hurricane hit land on the coast, we are still getting heavy rains and high winds. But we will get through this one and through hardships such as this hurricane, it just makes me more determined to better my life and to help others so as to make this world a better place to live. My wife is very supportive and we are grateful to have found honest and proven programs, such as Marketing Checkpoint, to build our online home business.
