My name is Karin Boode
and I am a social media geek. Almost nothing on this planet gives me the kicks like internet marketing. To know that every thing you do can be seen and used by anyone anywhere on this planet… It’s a rush. It’s fullfilling. And I love it.
I love the fact that I am helping people move towards their goals and dreams. They in their turn help others achieve their dreams and goals. It is a viral process that knows no end. And while doing it, I am finally achieving the life I’ve dreamed of.
But things were not always that easy
In fact, I’ve spent many many years working almost around the clock to be where I am today. In my original career I made it to the top, but not without hard work and long hours.
But it makes sense.
My dad raised me and my siblings on his own.
So, when he lost his job, it was not easy. We did not have a lot of money. It made me determined to change that for myself. I worked hard to get the degrees that I have, knowing that education would get me to my goal. I worked and went to college at the same time and still managed to finish college without time delay.
I went on to do my PhD, knowing that with that kind of a degree I would be able to make it through life without the hardship I had known as a child. Don’t get me wrong my dad was a great guy. He did everything within his power to give us as a good a life as he possibly could.
So, I build my career and made it to the top
My assumption was correct. With my titles in hand I did find very well paying jobs and I made it to the board of some large corporations. Not without hard work though. I learned that nothing comes without effort. And that was ok with me.
Except that when I got older and I achieved my goal of being financially independent, I changed my outlook on life. My new goal became to help as many people as I possibly could, while making enough money to not revert back to my childhood circumstances.
Internet marketing made all that possible
And that’s where I am today. That’s why I started the Social Traffic Club, where I give away valuable information for free. I realize that others would charge for that information, but I did not want to do that. I want to make sure that money does not stand in the way of making it for any of my subscribers. That is what this blog and the Social Traffic Club is all about. That’s why I started it. I wanted to help other people gather the tools and inspiration they need to get out of their crummy situations, and into situations they deserve.
And for people who are already livin’ the life – I wanted to connect with them too, and help make both of our lives even better.
I also want to grow and learn from my subscribers. Many of them have experience in things I never will. That’s why I appreciate it so much when people leave comments. It seriously lights up my day.
Anyways, my blog is centered around these 3 things in particular:
1. Success / Prosperity / Happiness / Money
2. Social Media and Internet Marketing
3. You & Me
TO YOUR SUCCESS,
