There will be people there from every walk of life, and even students flying in from England and Australia!   So for me to travel from Vancouver, BC, Canada, is easy!

What a privilege to connect and network with people that I have “known” online for so long.  Some people have been my friends through forums, some have been my mentors, some have taught me about TeleClasses, about Blogging, about Affiliate Marketing.

I’ve been online since 2003 – but my first 2 years were a haze, and I felt like I was in a jungle.  I lost a lot of money – about $8,000 – during those first 2 years — but during the past 5 years, I have found the right people, who really love to help people, and I have benefited so much, and contributed back to them.

I just bought a new Flip Video Camera and a new Nikon Digital Camera, so my journey has already begun.  Of course I’ll take my laptop.

There’ll be 150 students, and 20 Instructors.

Amazing Fact – 60 of us belong to the Elite Mentoring Group – with Lynn Terry – I can’t wait to meet Lynn, and of course the 60 other people that I know from the Forums and Webinars that Lynn leads.

Can’t wait to be with a group of Internet Marketers, make new friends, and connect with friends I have already met online, and now I will meet in person!

Sometimes it was weeks before I posted anything.  I just could not understand why anyone would be interested when I was going out for a walk, or having a smoothie!   But now I’m becoming “addicted”….  it is definitely a way to stay in touch with current online friends, and make new friends.

Now, using  Twitter as a tool for business networking is definitely the way of the future.  I am so fortunate because last night my  Mom Masterminds Mentoring Group for online mentoring  provided members with an EXCLUSIVE TeleClass about  Twitter  and I learned a lot.

I am finding that it is a great way to brainstorm and also set goals for the day, and keep myself accountable. It is like when I worked in an office, and I would have coffee breaks or lunch breaks with co-workers…. sometimes we talked about business and sometimes we chatted about what was going on in our personal lives — you know, like friends do!
