Default Bought SBI! after a year of research

John -

The action guide is 10 "days". I've had SBI! for several weeks and just finished Day 5.

It's not easy. It's fun, though, and that's what makes it so great. I can't speak about any personal success, because as I said, I'm only halfway through the creation process, and even after that, it'll take continuous work to maintain and keep making changes to the site to keep it alive.

The features are impressive. VERY impressive. The Brainstorm It! tool is amazing. If I had to do all of that on my own, I would've given up by now.

There are so many fantastic tools. Honestly, I can't see this as being a scam because there's way too much information and work involved. It's not a bad thing either. Each time you work and make a decision, it feels really really good, because you're working hard to earn something from this site. Learning it all and applying that knowledge, so far, is a lot of fun for me, although sometimes it makes me a little nervous too. But that comes with starting a new business.

I'm like you. I'm no body's sucker. I've never fallen for a get-rich-quick scheme in my life, although I've found many online while searching for quality information about working from home and earning a living online. After all my research, SBI! seemed to be worth the risk. So far, I am not disappointed.

No you didn't! Wow! That's actually very reassuring. You're my role model, and if you can screw up royally and then succeed later, then I'll be okay!

It's rare, but whenever I think about how I might not succeed with this, I think about you specifically, and then the other SBI!ers that have succeeded, and say, "If they can do it, I can do it."

JenniferK-
I've really enjoyed coming across your posts! You remind me so much of me and what I'm going through and feeling. I'm nobody's sucker either (well except for that time when I was 18 years old and my cousin was selling Amway. ) and I especially appreciated what you said in the thread you started

I'd seen so many "make money on the web" sales pitch pages. Highlighted, red font colored text. You've seen them. They scream "I'm full of it, and all I want is your money!!" I was tired of finding those. Thankfully, I've never fallen for one.
In my frustration one afternoon, I typed "create a website" into google, and voila, I found Lisa! I remember saying to my husband after an hour on her site, "I love this chick! This makes so much sense!" It was like the big DUH! light bulb finally turned on inside of my head.
I have this drive to be truly self sufficient. Not just by trading my time to an employer for money to pay my bills self-sufficiently but because I'm trading my time doing something I love for myself! I've searched for ways to make money online and I hate those screaming "Sign up with me and Get Rich Quick" websites as well and as soon as I click on them and see them for what they are, I'm gone!!

I found out about SBI! on another guy's blog. I did a search for SBI! and Lisa was the third person I came across "hawking" SBI! (sorry, Lisa I don't think that at ALL anymore. In fact, I didn't think that after about 20 minutes on your site! ) I was like, "Good grief!! I just want a real review on this product, not somebody saying how great it is and singing SBI!'s praises just because they get a kickback!!" But, Lisa's site, unlike the others, had content and for some reason I started snooping around her site. I was blown away with the amount of information I found and I, too, said to my husband, "This girl is amazing!! I think she really does want to help people, not just make a buck on newbie ignorance!"

Anyway, after I read around on her site, I then believed what she had to say about SBI!.

I'm so close to buying SBI! but unfortunately, I have a full-time (that generally requires 120% of me leaving barely anything left at the end of the day) job AND I'm taking 10 credits this semester at the local community college through the summer. It's really a full plate and everything I'm reading says learning how to do my website is going to take time, time and more time. I know if I buy SBI! I'll want to have my nose in the content every waking moment and I really don't want to jeapordize my school work. I might not end up doing anything with these classes but I did make a commitment to take them and I want to do well in them.

I'm sorry for hi-jacking this thread and I apologize if I got too far off topic. I'm interested in reading what others have to say about SBI! being the real deal.

I really like this place and the friendly folks here so thanks for having me!

April

Default extra side benefit of site build-it?

So site sell is still around? and site buildIt as well?

I had to google it just to make sure we're talking about the same thing:

I found some people bashing it, not sure if the bashers were anti business entitlement happy marxist zealots (I don't have any attitude.. do I?)


so you're saying newbies can learn a lot from it?

perhaps I should funnel some of my clients that have the potential to work with me rather than sit back and have me do all the work... am thinking...

Site Sell and SiteBuildIt! are both the same thing.

If you know nothing about all the technical aspects of building a website, SBI is a wonderful tool to help you through each step. I looked for a long time for something that would help me make sense of everything needed to get started, and SBI was the answer for me.

Its not easy and its not fast (for me anyway) but all the info is there to get your website up and running. The brainstorming tools are priceless, I think.
