I’m hearing from a lot of people who are discouraged. They have been trying to succeed online for a long time, have spent much of their time and money and don’t have the results they wanted to show for that investment.
The product they are promoting did not convert. The blog they got with their business opportunity looks like every other blog out there. And they don’t know how to update it or what to say.
I get it because we have all been there. I am no exception.
When I first stared online I had to learn HTML the hard way. I’m talking about a text editor and literally writing the code.
And this was after two years of what doctors call “post concussion syndrome”. Not fun that one.
I struggled for days (sometimes weeks) to make a simple squeeze page or write a sales letter.
And creating and selling a product and setting up a download page? Forget about it! 🙂
But I made it through and today own over 12 websites, employ 6 people and have a strong business.
How did that happen? I believe it’s due to two things.
- As a man of faith I say with gratitude that we have been blessed.
- I was willing to take things in baby steps.
Let’s focus on point 2 for a moment.
When I say baby steps I mean just that. I believed then, and believe now, that I could do anything if I had a good step-by-step checklist to follow.
A roadmap. A blueprint if you will.
Today I’m hearing people say they can’t do this or that because they don’t have the education or they are too old or they have just failed so many times they are discouraged. When you graduate from awol academy you will have everything you need to start a career in digital marketing.
If that sounds remotely like you let me share this …
It is never too late to start again.
You can do anything if you take it in small baby steps.
To help you take those baby steps I’d like to share one of our internal checklists. This is what we use in our company and share with members of our sites.
You can download it here free. No opt in or purchase required.

If you have a blog, try using this to install a plugin on your site today.
Not sure which plugin to test on? I recommend Yoast. You will see exactly how to find it in the checklist.
I hope you find this checklist helpful.
I hope too that today’s message has encouraged you, if even just a little, that you really can do anything you try to do if you take it in small steps and never quit.
I’m 60 years old and a high school graduate.
If I can do it, you CAN do it too!
Be well,
