About Christie G
Joined September 2008
I am a nurse living the small town life. I take care of elderly people, in a nursing home setting. I love that aspect of my job and I put my heart into it. I do not have any HUMAN children, but I do have a family of 3 canines and 3 felines. My youngest is a little Yorkie named Dexter, who is spoiled rotten. Everywhere I go he goes, unless it is in a car >>>that's just not his thing.
I bought a fixer-upper house a few years back and I just haven't been able to do a whole lot with that project, due to living paycheck to paycheck basically. I watch DIY TV and HGTV and any other associated channels, with the hopes that some day >>> I'll be able to afford all the projects I have stored in the back of my head, waiting to be initiated.
I kept seeing all those infomercials on TV about real estate fortunes, no money down real estate purchasing power, getting rich quick schemes and such. I didn't believe any of those scams, because as the old saying goes >>>> If it sounds to good to be true, then it is, but it did get me to thinking one day.
I have always wanted to work from home and make an income I could live comfortably on. I don't have to be rich, but I wouldn't mind either. Every since the internet came about, I have spent way to much time online, so I started to wonder, if there was something I could do from home and make a living from it, I bet I could find it there. To make a long story short, after much searching and investigating, I wound up at WA. It was the ONLY program, through all my investigating, that l felt was not a scam of some sort. I have been here a week tomorrow and I am very glad I joined. This is the real deal and I am sooooo glad I did not waste my money on any other program. I have absolutely no experience as an IM, but I am very motivated to learn. I gave the Bum Marketing Method a go last night and I wrote my first 3 ads

Congrats....if you don't mind my asking...which method did you use to get your first sale?? Was it a blog or an article?? I'm having a tough time getting going and getting my first sale. I'm in my 7th week of training now.
Keep up the good work....any words of encouragement would be appreciated!!
Thanks, Nicole

Hey bud...yeah things aren't going for well for me either. I wrote an article on Hubpages and it was unpublished cuz I put too many links in there and haven't had a chance to re-do it. Kinda still frustrated. And now it's getting to be Christmas and it's getting more hectic for me (I work for FedEx...and in Florida our season is also with the snowbirds!!) So I won't be having too much time for the computer soon. Which stinks cuz that is when I will be delivering what people are probably buying from you guys!!! lol
Aren't you glad you asked??? hahahaha

"Since it has been my lot to find, at every parting of the road, the helping hand of comrade kind to help me with my heavy load, And since I have no gold to give and love alone must make amends, my humble prayer is, while I live -- God, make me worthy of my friends."
Christie G Premium

I just wanted to make sure, that I did thank you for for your warm welcome u sent me, and that u got it this time. I share your sentiment>>>> It's not just about money. It's about freedom for me too and a lot of other people here feel the same way also, I have come to learn. Best of luck 2 u and keep smiling :o)

Hi ChocolateChip,
Hope all is going well w/ SR. After posting a long blog on blogger last night, I decided I am going to spend a bit of time on my lessons this weekend, so I do not get behind. I don't know how much quality time I will get w/ WA this weekend. My parents r coming in town tomorrow and I have to get the house ready for company. You know how it is, especially when Mom is coming. Want everything looking tip top. Anyhow, hope you r having A good weekend and SR doesn't give you 2 much headache. Talk 2 u later.

Thank you for the gold sweetie. I know how u feel, my friend. I am in the same spot. Still have not figured my website out.Have the site and a banner ...nothing more. Still haven't got my lens posted. Still have not made any money. Have 2 PPC ads and 3 free ads, but balance is $0. Guess that is the norm, for the most part, w/ us beginners. I am about to PM you.
We CAN do this. Keep the faith :o)
Christie
Christie G Premium
WOW ChocolateChip,
I did not notice how much gold I had when I was typing that PM to you. I was gonna give a piece to some1 for some help on graphics and then I saw my total and was shocked. Thank you so much for the gold my friend. I was getting low too. You're a sweetie. Talk to you later. Have a GREAT weekend.

Hello There My Friend,
I am about to start work on my second campaign. Clickbank still shows $0. I am just gonna try not to worry about it and just keep going. The more I get out there, the more chances of earning dollars I have. Everything is cool here, just working hard, as you are my dear. Some day soon we will hopefully reap the benefits of our dedication :o)

Hi Christie. I like your dog's name. It reminds me of a cartoon I used to watch - Dexter's Laboratory. I know, I'm corny but I love all things science. I was reading your blog and noticed that you were having some trouble with HTML and FTP. While I'm not an expert, I did teach myself how to write HTML and how to use FTP, so if I can be of any help don't hesitate to ask.

Hi Christie. I have about a half an hour this morning if you need me to help walk you thru your squidoo lens. I don't know what your time zone is - mine is EST and it is 7:20am Sunday morning. It's pretty easy to create a lens, getting traffic is the hard part. I have 4 lenses and might have had a total of 4 visitors - two of which were probably me. The best thing to do is just put it up (copy and paste), then just keep tweaking it little by little. Let me know if you want me to help and your online now.

Hi Christie, it's good to hear from you. I can totally relate about now having time for the 30DC. I was doing pretty good for the first couple of days, then I started applying the info and I had to go back and re-watch some of the videos 3 and 4 times. I also started making a cheat sheet, just kind of listing the steps needed and in the proper order. That takes more than what I got, but it's the best way, if not the only way, that I can even begin to understand all this. It's starting to click, but I'm still back on day 5 or 6. And I haven't looked at them for at least a week. It does seem that you can go at your own pace, which is very cool. I still haven't heard anything about a partnership, though.
Money is very tight here right now, too. Actually, my month for WA runs out on the 22, and I won't be renewing it very soon. But, the 30DC is free and all I do here is chat once in a while, so until I have more time (yeah, right, like that will ever happen) I won't be around for some time. I'll put my email address at the end of this message, feel free to contact me any time, just to say hi or whatever.
Oh hey, I found some videos online for something called the $50 Daily Challenge. It kind of seems like it's something along the same lines as 30DC, just done differently. In my opinion, so far, it's not as good as the 30DC, but there is only like 6 videos to the course and there's no pre-season or pre-challenge or whatever it was called. If you are interested in watching them let me know and I'll send you a copy (all together, they are about 210 MB, which I could zip individually, and they are in a .SWF format). Let me know.
Well, good luck in your money making efforts and I'll talk to you next time.
Bye,
John

OOps, I knew I was going to do that. I forgot to give you my email address. I'll send it to you in a PM. Bye, again.

Hello John,
Thank you so much for offering help w/ FTP, HTML and such. If you could just sit there w/ me, when I am trying to post my Squidoo lens I compiled, that would be great.....lol.... it has been written for some days now, but once again I got sidtracked terying to learn how to do Squidoo posting the best way. Eventually, I will get it :o)
Your daughters are lovely by the way. Best of luck to you and keep in touch w/ your progress. Have a great day.

Hey John,
How r u doing? I was just checking on you :o) I have not been doing that 30DC stuff. I just haven't had the time. I have been trying to get some things going to make money. I really hate it too. Maybe when I get my campaign going I can start watching some videos. They really are gonna be a big help, I think, but I need to start making money ASAP.Anyhow, hope all is well.

Good Morning :o)
My membership for WA will end on 12-9. I will be coming back when my finances get a little less tight. Other than that, everything is cool. I was going to go back to work, but the director of nursing said it would be after the 1st of the year before she could get me in, so I gotta wait. That will not help my finances either. I see Jill says you made some WA sells. Good job. Wish I could make a couple before I have to leave, so I would not have to leave. Anyhow, good to hear from you. I hope you and your son have a wonderful Christmas.
Keep Smiling :o)

Wow Wojo I went to your blog...Nice! I guess that is Wordpress. I still have not tackled that. Just do not understand it yet. I have it set up with a domain and one of Jeff Johnson's themes, but that is far as I have gotten. Oh my, I just thought of something. I will lose my hosting when I leave WA. Oh me. I have to go figure out what to do. Anyhow, there I go rambling. I just wanted to tell you nice work...lol
