Yes, on April Fools day this year, my boss came up to me and stated that my job was no longer needed. I was greatly shocked, especially after nearly 20 years of loyal service to him.
I came down to reality quickly realizing that in a few short sentences, I was no longer able to support my family, provide shelter, pay bills..and look forward to my retirement. I was very depressed as one can imagine. The drive home at 10 AM was not at all common; it felt out of place just as the whole morning had come to pass. The realization that I had enough savings to secure about 60 days of support for all our financial needs was falling short. There were always people coming up, and stating "Mike you need to get ready for any emergencies". The thought was passing, but I had worked devoted to a company that seemed to have no end, so what would ever happen. I had more than enough life insurance to take hold incases of death, yet now how was I going to even pay the premium? WOW, what an eye opener for a reality check.
My wife was home, she was off on Monday. Her normal routine was to what she has done for our 25 years of marriage, clean, shop, take care of her matters at hand. I opened the door, walked in and she stood in the kitchen. She obviously was curious why I was home? The words came out "I was just fired". She quietly went into the living room and I could tell she was upset. Tears came to my eyes, and we talked together. We had no solutions, the same questions came up from my wife, as that had just passed thru my mind on the 30 minute drive home from my employ.
In depression, many things came up in my mind. I could end my life, that would provide for my wife and kids, yet that would be cheating myself, and those who did care and love me. No, I would not take a cheap route out of my situation. It took about a week to get my thoughts cleared enough to really focus on how I would pull out of this temporary set back in my life.
I found and updated my resume, forwarded it electronically to literally hundreds of job sites. In fact, I considered sending out résumé’s out of state that would take me away from my family just so I could provide. There were no hits, emails were full of spam type offers that were not related to what I needed to provide for my family.
There were other options, which one was where could I go to work from home and make an income that would supplement or even surpass my earning from past employ? I started typing on word search thru the internet. I had literally hundreds of hits, sure was going to take some time to wade thru them, yet was determined to find a niche for making money.
It took about 2 weeks and had narrowed my search to one company. EDC came up the choice. The program was easy to afford, even though my income savings were very limited. It could be worked from home at my own hours, and the potential was great. Since my youth, I watch my Dad and how he provided, and sure it may have been tough on him at times, we always had food, and shelter. I was going to survive, I was going to continue to provide everything that my family deserved and that was that.
I made the choice. I went to an EDC Registration site, signed in and all started so very fast. I did not know anything about Internet Marketing period. The concept was completely foreign, as if trying to understand and write a language that I had no idea what it meant. EDC had promises in writing in more than one area about support, and step by step guidance, and more of the same. I went with my gut instinct that I was going to make everyone at EDC come through on that promise. Guess what, they did everything as promised. I received 3 websites, tools, software, capture pages, email response, and so much more, even online live support Monday thru Fridays.
It has been nearly 38 days since I have registered with EDC. I have learned more about marketing, and making websites, and directing traffic to my website than I ever thought I would know. In fact, in past week, I have 7 signed opt in registered people who are looking for supplement income. The money may come quickly, if all 7 sign in paid shortly, will be $7000 in commission to me and my family. I put a counter on my website, and in past 7 days have had over 800 visits to my site. I am amazed, and even if there are no immediate sales, I have learned that there is a way to survive even if one has no experience in a certain field like the internet.
The owners of EDC promise success if you follow their way to make this program work. I do thank Craig and Michael for having this opportunity to learn, and earn with their proven business plan.
Thanks for allowing me to share with you my story.
