Hello! Damon & Rita here

- You see others building their dream businesses and you yearn for the same
- You feel frustrated that time keeps passing and yet, no progress
We help you launch and grow your online business
Starting an online business is a lot like launching a rocket. It’s that first stage which is most difficult. The breaking free from Earth’s gravity.
But rather than fighting gravity, you’re fighting basic human tendencies, like procrastination, perfectionism, information overload and overwhelm.
We don’t pretend to be perfect or have all the answers, but we do know these struggles.
We’ve spent too many years on the wrong path, focusing on the wrong things, perfecting things that don’t matter and almost giving up on everything repeatedly. It’s why we started this website – to share what we’ve learned to help you overcome these obstacles!
It doesn't have to be difficult
There are very few prerequisites for starting an online business. People from all walks of life (different educational backgrounds, income level, time constraints) have found success and without a doubt, you can too. Getting started is mostly about following steps and just getting something out there. It’s a matter of:
- Knowing what to focus on next
- Taking action and doing it
Where things get mucky is finding the advice you can trust and effective blueprints you can follow. THAT is potentially the most disastrous step in your online business journey.
We believe you deserve the opportunity to pursue your dream lifestyle. To create a life of freedom, happiness and fulfillment. But when you’re working a full-time job, juggling kids, exercise, social life and a million other responsibilities… who has the time to figure this all out? Or the energy?
The truth is, we didn’t know any of this stuff when starting out. It’s been an ongoing journey, paved by our own stubborn determination to figure out what works. We want to save you that headache and share exactly what worked for us.
Your time is limited and valuable. But you shouldn’t have to sideline your dreams. We’re passionate about helping you build your ideal life. One where you are the boss and in control of YOUR time.

Who are we to teach this?
Damon in 10 seconds: programmer, certified digital marketer, Wordpress fanatic, productivity ocd, Firefly fan, husband
After buying a house and sports car at 20, Damon left his comfy desk job to become a freelance programmer. He then spent several years bouncing between gigs, a startup, trading lots of time for money and eventually delved into digital marketing. In 2009, he launched his first blog and soon after achieved his first profitable month.
The road from there wasn’t all uphill, but that’s life - and the basis for creating this website.
Rita in 10 seconds: entrepreneur, teacher, photographer, polyglot, Stranger Things addict, wife
Rising from humble beginnings in a remote, mountain village in China, Rita put herself through university while supporting her family. She went on to start an international trade company in China - a country not conducive to independent thought and business startup due to heavy government restrictions. Some call it, starting a business on “expert” mode.
Transitioning to online business in 2013, Rita went on to find her own successes in teaching, video marketing and simply inspiring others with her own struggles and accomplishments.
