I have just found a very useful website if you want to do a little bit of research into the area of a property at www.houseprices.co.uk.  If you put in the postcode of a property in it will pull out all of the previous property sales prices from the land registry back to 2000!

Nice!

An added little bonus to learning all kinds of good stuff is that now and again you get to put it to good use.

I got a call from my Godson’s father yesterday, requesting my assistance in helping him create a session singing career, well, reinvoke the previous one he had. Tbh, this is going to be a slightly long task as there are updated session demos that need to be recorded, but up until this day he didn’t even have a Facebook account!

I get a great sense of thrill and joy when I get the chance to help people. I get the opportunity to create his website, train him in the art of maintaining it and walk him through all his social networking profiles! Plus, he is adamant that he wants me to do his vocal recording to… I’m honoured! Gonna have to re-revise my degree coursework lol. Not to mention, Elle from SugarMooch is onside to help out with the graphics… She’s awesome..

I don’t want to sound like a do-gooder, because they seem to me as a little tedious, but being able to help someone so dear to me in a way that he appreciates is great and I am well up for it!

So, the moral of the story is keep up the learning and let’s see how useful we can become!

I have been on the internet for about 2 years now and I love the idea that from my geographical placement I can create a shop, website or business that can be accessed from all over the globe. The whole concept still fascinates me.

Just over a year ago, I became interested in how the whole thing worked (that was when I joined Wealthy Affiliate, which I highly recommend!). Earlier this year I got excited and joined a course that shows you how to build yourself a shop online and all the techniques needed to make it successful. The thing I like about courses like these is that there is no pat on the back at the end with a certificate, the prize is a working online product, which you have built up yourself!

The course is run by a company called Prosper, who are based in Utah and run distant learning courses on all kinds of new wave subjects like Stock Trading, E-commerce and Real Estate.

The main reason I am writing this post, apart from the obvious about multiple streams of income (hence my e-commerce mission) is for a tribute to my course Tutor. He got thrown in the deep end with me as my first one left the company and he had no background on what I had been doing. The main reason I want to write this is because everytime I get off the phone I am geared up. He doesn’t even try to push me or motivate me, it is just the way he is and the things he says. Basically, he seems a great guy all round. Tbh, we spend a lot of the time laughing!

If, by chance, you want to enrol with Prosper and do the E-commerce course I would suggest asking for him by name to be your tutor. His name is Beau Graves.

Just to show you the progress of what my course is creating I have put an image link at the bottom of the page so you can have a look!

Enjoy
