About
Welcome!
My name is Michael Hobach and what you see here is my contribution to the niche known as 'Internet Marketing' (IM)…
The purpose of this site is to help cut through the BS, smoke & mirrors, and hype of every online 'get rich (fast or slow)' program. I've spent a lot of money on programs – mostly to see what they are about. I've found that so many just re-hash stuff that is already out there.
I promise not to add to your frustration on purpose and I'll do my best to make things clear for you even if you have no experience.
I've written an e-courses that I offer here for Free – check it out and use it to get headed in the right direction with your online business.
A Long Time Ago…
I've been earning a living online since 1995, actually I started back in the 80's – way before the internet, when the BBS ruled – people would use a modem to dial into stand-alone computers to 'network' with other people. Back then we used modems with speeds so slow there were no graphics – 110 baud to 24k baud. I won't even try to explain how slow that was…
In 1982 I had a BBS system with 16 phone lines – 3,500 subscribers used my service, and there was nothing commercial about it. In fact I got so discurraged when people couldn't imagine using their personal computer to buy things from a merchant – actually I was able to convince a local computer paper / disc / ribbon store to take orders through our service. It wasn't pretty – but he actually did a fair volume of sales.
Now if you don't remember – back then the computer paper had holes along the edges that you would have to tear off, called 'tractor feed'… and there were printer ribbons… and the diskettes were 8" floppy – the 5" and 3 1/2" sizes were just coming out! lol
Al Gore Invents The Internet…
I've been involved in technology my entire adult life – including microwave communication equipment design and engineering, embedded microprocessor control equipment for the Point Of Purchase (POP) industry, automated – computer controlled manufacturing systems, and of course Internet back-end systems for commercial customers. In 1995 I started an Internet Company that today has several data centers located in the mid-west and provides outsourced services for thousands of companies around the world. This company is managed by my oldest child – my 32 yr old son.
In 2001 I started Blue Eye Group which was reorganized as Blue Eye Group LLC. Through BEG I've offered downloadable e-books, training, and also developed a number of 'niche' web sites.
In 2004 I ventured into the 'niche' for Real Estate Investors – which is where almost all of my energy was focused up until 2008.
Internet Marketing…
I've decided to focus my energy in sharing what I know to those interested in making money on the Internet… Typically referred to as the "Internet Marketing'" niche or IM.
My background and area of interest is primarily in the technology – not specific to any particular niche. This means that regardless of what you might be interested in marketing, or no matter what your company is already doing, what I'm going to show you and explain to you can be applied.
You see – the one thing that I have learned is that the most passionate part of my being is held by the technology that makes the Internet work! This includes web site – the most commonly identifiable part of the Internet.
Pull Back The Curtain…
So follow me now as I take you on a tour of the real Internet… don't listen to the man telling you to pay no attention to the man behind the curtain… I'm going to keep telling you to pay attention to what is going on behind the curtain – this is where you will discover how the things in front of the curtain really works… once you realize this, you can apply it to just about anything online and be as successful as you really want to be!
To your success,
Michael Hobach
