Over the weekend I watched an 88 year old Betty White do her thing on Saturday Night Live. As I watched I couldn’t help but wonder how many years she has left because she’s lived such a full life and how amazing to top it off with an event to remember.

I also couldn’t help but wonder if I’ll have so many truly great accomplishments to look back on when I turn 88.

It was such a strange and amazing turn of events the lead to the talent actress hosting the popular late night show. It was a mixture of old and new.

After fans saw Betty on the Snickers commercial that featured her as a pseudo football player they started a Facebook campaign to get her on the show.

Betty’s career spans 70 years. SEVENTY YEARS!

I loved her on the Golden Girls, she was absolutely my favorite character.

There’s No Internet Marketer Who Compares

For all intents and purposes marketing on the internet started no earlier than 1980′s, and that’s really pushing it since about 99% of people had no idea how to sell a thing online in the 80′s. So, at most, we’ve got experts who’ve been in this field for 30 years but they would be very few and far between. Most people have no more than 15 years in internet marketing.

See what I’m getting at here? We ARE pioneers. We ARE paving a new road. Going where no man or woman has gone before. {dun da dun, la, la, la, la, la, la <-- star trek theme song } Isn't that exciting, and amazing?

And so I get back to my question of Who Will Be The First Golden Girl of Internet Marketing.

Will it be you? Will it be me? Will it be one of the many, amazing women marketers out there literally making the world a better place by sharing their wealth of information so others can build an income online?

In It to Win It?

I know with all my heart I’m in this one for the long haul. It’s what I’m absolutely called to do. I see myself doing nothing else for my entire life.

I don’t even see myself retiring! Because retirely means leaving a J.O.B. to live your life. But I plan on making my business PART of my life like Betty White has done so beautifully!

But You Suck at Sales!

People have tried to tell me I was wrong. That I wasn’t cut out for this. I was even told: “Angela, You’re just not a sales person.” Ummm, the continuous stream of paypal payments this week tells a different story, you see.

To be fair they were right, I’m not a salesperson. At least not in the old fashioned sense of the word. And I’m glad. You see the internet has changed the way many do business. I’m not the sleezy Amway rep who pushes their way into your home and tries to sell you a bunch of stuff you don’t need and weren’t looking for.

No, I’m the kind of salesperson who meets you where you’re at, who listens, who learns what you really need or want and helps you get it. THAT’S the kind of salesperson I LOVE to be.

I don’t really care if I’m the first Betty White of Internet Marketing. That’s not my point. The point is to make you think about your legacy, your life’s work and how you’ll feel when you turn 88 and look back on all you’ve done.

Now that’s something worth thinking about…

p.s. Now that I’ve poured my heart out to you I’d like to invite you to join me on this journey. Whether you want to be the Golden Girl or the Leading Man I’ve got experiences to share and advice to give. It’s here:
