Facilitating Momtrepreneurs

Recently I used strategic soliciting on Skype and was able to connect with a wonderful new friend: Lynne Lehmer, 62 year old Momtrepreneur, a self-taught online English Language Teacher at iTalki.

 
Networking at LinkedIn  brought me in contact with Terasee Morris, another Self Made Online English Language Trainer.

 
Together, we have decided to try our hand at repurposing a training programme at Alison, an Open Educational Resource. Our project is simple. We use the "21 Steps to a Web Business" as our training material and give FREE PUBLIC CLASSES on Wiziq. We facilitate any teacher who want to practice teaching online. They can collaborate with us.
  1. We shall facilitate budding online teachers: We have invited prospective online teachers to collaborate with us in teaching using this resource. We mentor the teachers into professional online trainers .
  2. We shall facilitate budding online entrepreneurs: As we Educate, Understand and Implement the "21 steps to a Web based Business" and work as directed by the trainer, Chris Farrell, we plan to implement the instructions step by step and set up our own Web based business. We have already registered Domains of Sebastian Panakal, Lynne Lehmer and Terasee Morris, for this purpose.
We have invited the attendees to watch us in action and learn from our mistakes. They shall set up their own web based business ONLY after we succeed at our attempt. This way, we could overcome skeptics and ensure all round success.

 
An Indian Story: An old farmer was in his death bed. He was so sad! His sons were lazy and had not learned how to farm. He murmured to his eldest son, " I've hidden a treasure in our land. I don't remember where" and breathed his last.

 
After the funeral, his sons started digging all over. They didn't find any treasure. They were disappointed.

 
The mother advised, "Why don't we plant something, now that we have ploughed the land?"
The sons followed suit and had a plentiful harvest.

 
Mother said, "This is the treasure your father mentioned"

 
Likewise, once we have our websites up and running, we are sure to find some creative monetization there, even if the advise of Chris Farrel doesn't work for us.

 
We have challenged ourselves to achieve. We have burnt our bridges behind us. We have made a public announcement, we are going to make money using the "21 Steps to a Web Business".

 
Succeed we shall. Watch us in action. Thank you.

 
Anyone interested in joining this learning journey can register themselves at Wiziq and attend our lessons on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8:00 pm, Indian Standard Time.
