I wrote this book for you. When I first started my business 26 years ago, I wished someone told me what the rules were, what to watch out for and the steps to create a business. This is that book.

Who Is Wes?
A little about me
I wanted to become a Marine Biologist. I originally enrolled in Marine Biology at San Diego State University, then later stumbled upon an up and coming major in the Communications department called New Media. That’s what they first called the Web in 1997. No one really knew what websites were or how to build them, but everyone wanted one, so I worked full time during the day and went to school at night. I couldn’t get a job as a website designer, because no one knew what that was. All of my jobs were contract jobs, which is how I ended up becoming a consultant. Over the years, I’ve held titles such as, Web Designer, Web Developer, Production Manager, Director, Vice President, Chief Information Officer and Chief Operating Officer. Increasingly, my role has been to seek out and implement technology to make companies perform their best. From eCommerce solutions to marketing, to back office, moving the company forward is the goal. My experience is my strength. I am able to take over two decades of lessons learned and apply them daily to help companies become successful.
Whether you are a small start up getting off the ground or preparing your company for acquisition, I’ve done it and know what it takes to get there. After 26 years of working with online businesses I’ve seen first hand what everyone says is true, it’s not about the idea, it’s about the execution. To do that takes planning and process. There’s just no way around it. Unfortunately, that’s one of the easiest skills to learn, but the hardest to understand. I’ve worked for many brilliant CEO’s that had incredible ideas, but needed help to get them done. To break the information down into manageable chunks, come up with a plan and put it into action. I guess that’s my superpower, because I’ve done that again and again. It’s one of the main reasons I wrote my book, Create Your Own Job, How to Become Self Employed Without a Plan. I needed a place to get all of these ideas out and share them with the world. I think everyone should start their own business. It helps you understand money, the effort it really takes and it also makes you a better employee. After all of these years, this is how I’m giving back, helping one small business at a time.
We get off track sometimes and I guess this was my 45 year old self telling me to not take myself so seriously and enjoy the life I’ve lived. Several people have asked about the article, so I decided to republish it. I hope you get some lessons out of it too.
