About This Site…

Welcome to my site where I chronicle my adventures as a beginner internet marketer. I have been at this beginner thing for a while, yo-yoing between frustration and inspiration, dealing with the huge learning curve and the avalanche of pushy marketers who fattened my inbox from a cute size 2 to a bulging 200 and often left me dissatisfied.

So, I have walked away a few times now, overwhelmed and ready to throw in the towel.

Luckily, I’m persistent and determined. Like any business start-up, you have to keep at it, right? And yes there are many making a good living online doing what they love, so why shouldn’t we?

And That’s What This Site Is All About

…to help beginner internet marketers like me who feel overwhelmed learning the ropes and weeding through irrelevant or diluted information, products, and other challenges that come with getting started.

This site will only provide honest to goodness internet business building basics collected from my own experiences and research. In some cases, I will be blogging as I actually use products or services – in real-time. This has two advantages:

Watching as I succeed and fumble will help you decide on which strategies and resources to use without wasting valuable time going through everything yourself.
My real-time approach provides a true to life testimonial that anyone can make a living with an online business and internet marketing.

But remember: I’m no Expert

What works for me may not work for you. So use your common sense and gut feeling. I’m simply chronicling my experiences and proposing ideas, products or techniques that work for me and that are, to my best of knowledge, scam-free.

I will on occasion recommend my own and others’ products that I feel would benefit you the beginner online entrepreneur. Of course, I will act as an affiliate for others’ products I have tried and liked or that come highly recommended by a trusted, experienced source.

Quality Help, Honesty, Positivity and Integrity

Understandably, after being burned by greedy marketers and stumbling through mediocre products, I strive to produce an online presence that is honest, positive and has integrity – and most importantly that actually helps YOU.

Now About ME…

Hi! I’m Louise Mandar and I’m a freelance writer, bossy wife, frazzled mother, and struggling pack leader to my Jack Russell Terrier mix, Juno. (See picture below. Isn’t he cute?? I am a Dog Whisperer fan and used many of Cesar’s techniques. The results are pretty good…but that’s a discussion for another blog!). Back to the topic at hand…

Wanting the “Sweet Life”

My husband enjoys his career and I enjoy freelancing, but we still want to experience more in life. We want to build a cushy nest and lifestyle that will allow us to live to the fullest. As you already know, the internet has broken many invisible walls and served us up a whole new platter of tasty opportunities. I’m going to grab mine!

My Mission

To build myself a Sweet Life doing what I love (writing & teaching) while inspiring and empowering others to do the same.
