The Married Entrepreneur

It's been a while since I've posted anything, and I've been wanting to do a post about my family so here we go. I know most of you already know, or have guessed that I am married, but not only that I have two kids. One of them is special needs and absolutely amazing. However the one person that means​ the world to me is my wife. Without her I wouldn't be the person I've grown to be.    We've had our share of bad times, what couple hasn't, but we've managed to make it through and grow stronger. She's been great when it has come to my business ventures. She's given me  encouragement when I've needed it and brought me back down to Earth as well, and for that I am very greatful. Ill often tell her that I don't know what I'd do without her and she doesn't realize how true that is. My wife is great and and amazing person, but my kids are a hoot. For instance my son and​ I were going through the drive through at Burger King to get my

So a friend of mine asked me about investing, and so this post is in response to that. Any of us that have been in the workforce for any length of time know about investing from the lens of a retirement account, but did you know there are more way to invest your money than just a retirement account. In all honesty investing is the only way that you can make money and not do anything to earn it, but you can also loose a fortune as well. With that being said let's get to it. Ok so there are several options that you have when it comes to investing and investment accounts. I won't get into them but I will tell you what they are. We hear a lot about retirement accounts a lot of times those are tax deferred which is good until you withdraw the money, and then obviously you pay the tax on it. Within this group there are IRA's, Roth IRA's, 401k's, and 403b's. Roth IRA'S and IRA's are purchased through places like Edward Jones. Most employers offer a 401k plan

     So over the last few days I've been getting really frustrated, and discouraged and after thinking about it I know what it was. I was wanting an instant return on the work I put into everything. I was feeling that need for instant gratification. After listening to the guys at Secret Entourage and then Daniel Dipiazza, who is awesome by the way, I knew that things like this blog and then social media takes time to build and gain a following.    Which is the way it is. Even though it sucks and you're gonna have those times that you wanna give up and say fuck it, but you can't because this is something that you want to do. I also think that that is the reason my ecig shop didn't work out better, and that's because of the instant gratification aspect of life that has been engrained in us by the media. I wanted it to pay off right then and it didn't. I will say this I found that the ego-t vaporizers do really well a $15 each and you can source them easily from

     Ok, so after posting a few things about business, I figure you have an idea about what this is going to be about. What I haven't done is give you some insight into me as a person and my life.       So to get started, my name is Kevin. I am the husband to a wonderful wife, Andrea, and father to two wonderful kids, Caleb and Shelby. I am also a veteran of the U.S. Navy where I spent seven years of my life to my country. You can see my wife and son in the picture that is attached.        So what got me into business is I think my dad. He's in his fifties actually almost sixty now, and has wanted to start his own company, but unfortunately never got the chance to. He is a hard worker and takes pride in what he does.                My first foray into the world of business was right after the birth of my son. I started in the world of affiliate marketing. That was a with a program from an organization called Secret Entourage, they still have a program and you can go check t

       As entrepreneurs and business owners there is going to come a time that you start feeling frustration while you are working on developing your businesses. Now because of this it's important that you have a support system in place, but we will get into that in a minute.    First let's look at two of the possible reasons that you may be getting frustrated.    1. No sales or traffic.         This is one that I have personally have dealt with and still deal with daily. We all know that for any business to be profitable it needs sales and in order to get sales you need traffic. To get traffic you need to promote your company. Now traffic is important for any business but it's the lifeblood of any online endeavor.    2. Generating traffic.           With this you have two options. You either buy traffic, and that can get expensive, or you try to get free traffic, and that can be hit or miss. Right now this is my biggest stressor because I
