Synopsis
In 2004 my wife and I began seriously studying Internet marketing. We built a small website selling nutritional products -- CactusCanyon.com. We had great success with Cactus Canyon and began developing other online businesses as well. Within a few years we were both able to quit our full-time jobs in education and now work from home! Kay was a special education teacher at the same school I worked at. Although we both enjoyed our jobs, we wanted more control and freedom over our day to day activities and, most of all, we wanted out of the rat race the Internet worked perfectly into the equation. Even from our country home in Oklahoma, we had access to millions of potential customers on the Internet. We had created an enormous opportunity for ourselves!I look forward to helping you get started with your own successful Internet business. My online businesses began with just a dream! What is your dream?
