Thanks for signing up for the free e-mail course and welcome to the Build And Succeed family! I’m your host, Alex Pino, and I’m super excited to be on this journey with you. In the following days you will be receiving emails from me regarding starting and growing your own blog, vlog, or podcast successfully.
This sort of thing may not be for everyone, but being that you are here I take it that it’s something you’re probably getting pretty serious about. I think everyone has at least one good blog, vlog, or podcast idea in them, but it’s totally okay that it’s not for everyone to do. Some people are truly so busy being awesome and living in the moment, that there’s just no time for them to do it.
As for me, I like almost everything about blogging, vlogging, and podcasting. From planning and production, to post-production and promotion. I first laid my eyes on the Internet around 1995 and right away I started learning HTML, File Transfer Protocol, and whatever else I needed to get a website up and running. I soon learned about managing newsletters, getting publisher accounts for advertising revenue, affiliate programs for additional sales revenue, and content management systems to make managing webpages easier. I was a young lad and I had basically figured out how to build my own media business!
Years later, everything started changing and evolving. The internet started becoming more about videos, podcasts, and social media. Ordinary webpages and emails weren’t the main ways to communicate and share anymore. Things were growing and expanding, and they still are. Today it’s estimated that there are over 600 million blogs, over 2 million podcasts, over 37 million YouTube channels, and over 4.48 billion social media users.*
I’m excited to take you aboard the journey of producing your own content using your creativity, sharing your knowledge, and combining it all with the right tools to make it easy to spread your message. Whether you are trying to share your knowledge, sell your product or service, or just make people laugh. We’re here to help you make it easy.
Once again, welcome to the Build And Succeed family!
Sincerely,
Alex Pino
Founder, Build And Succeed
