Tired of the Grind?
Are you over the 9-5 grind? Do you want more adventure in your life? More time for adventure? Or more time for your family, or hobbies, or really anything other than working for someone else's profit?

Start Building a List of Loyal Contacts
Striking out on your own is difficult, no matter how much expertise or valuable knowledge you have to share. One of the first steps is to build a list of contacts that want to hear from you. Every email list starts with a very first subscriber. But how do you set up the list in the first place? How do you get people to sign up? How do you scale it from one to one thousand (or more!) contacts?
Get started with this free guide
In How to Build Your First Email List, you will learn the key steps you take to create, build, and manage a growing list of highly-engaged contacts who open your emails because they want to hear what you have to say, and who click on your promotions, because they trust and value your content.

Meet Tim Garlick
I'm a devoted husband and father of three who has been around the block more than once. With a degree in computer science from the University of California, I started my working career as a system administrator, and "network guy", before eventually co-founding an Internet Service Provider at the dawn of the commercial Internet age.
Later, I spent time writing and delivering courses to highly technical IT audiences. My expertise was highly sought-after and included operating systems, networking, security, virtualization, containers, and cloud technologies.
I retired from my tech career in 2020 to focus on investing, trading options, and exploring new businesses. My current project is to build a successful 7-figure (that's the goal!) Amazon FBA business. Head to the blog page to see the whole series and sign up on my email list so you never miss a new post.
