My name is Janet, I am an "early retired" headteacher from Hereford in the UK. Since retiring 6 years ago I have wanted to find an innovative way to earn income that encompassed my passion for health and wellness, a need for flexibility and something that enabled me to learn something new. I also wanted something that I could continue when visiting our house in central France. After a great deal of searching and considering the options I decided to begin by producing a web site which I have called The Holistic Health Directory. This was my first step into the world of the computer and internet marketing, and although I thoroughly enjoyed the process of starting to put together a web site I soon realised that if I was to turn my life long interest into a lucrative business I would have to start finding ways of promoting my site not to mention having the opportunity to earn multiple streams of income embedded into the site. This very quickly took me into the world of Network Marketing, Traffic Exchanges, Social Networking, Autoresponders etc etc. At times I thought I would never come up for air, but little by little through sheer determination I am now starting to make some sense of it all. Quite where it will all take me I'm not quite sure, but I do know that the journey will be exciting and the end result will be worth the wait.
