Hi there.

First of all congratulations on a great site. It's inspiring to see so many people working together and freely discussing their ideas on internet marketing.

My name is Mark and I've been working on internet marketing for about 8 weeks (80hrs+/week) now fulltime. I am constantly amazed how much time this stuff can steal away from me - not that I'm complaining as I love it! I've been learning all I can in the shortest amount of time because I believe I can make a decent living from it - I really don’t want to go back to doing the 9-5 grind . My background is almost 14 years in the computer industry primarily on the technical side, support and project management.

So far I have my first eBook just recently finished which I am just starting to get out there. On the other side of the coin I have quality internet marketing DVD's, copy writing courses and a few other products. I'm hoping that I can get these products out in the marketplace as well at some stage.

I guess I'm in a bit of a rut at the moment however and so I'm looking for mutually beneficial and professional joint ventures. From looking through the forums here I am very hopeful!

As a side note, a few weeks ago I thought it might be a novel idea to create a blog to keep a journal of sorts of my progress so that others who are in a similar situation can read along and perhaps learn from my failures and successes. Feel free to have a look and add a comment or two if you like ;D

I look forward to sharing my experiences and speaking with you all soon.

Cheers,
Mark.
