While it&#8217;s been a fun journey, last year I started missing the game development field &#8212; that&#8217;s how I got started in computer programming back in the 80s. So for the last 6-8 months I&#8217;ve been splitting my time between marketing and gaming.<\/p>\n<p>But it looks like that may be about to change. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been approached by a company that wants to buy one of my tools and hire me to continue working on it for them. And while I&#8217;ve *loved* being self-employed and had no intention of &#8220;looking for a job,&#8221; this company is one I strongly believe in and have dreamed about being a part of the team. <em>What they are doing is awesome.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If this deal goes through I&#8217;ll be dropping off the face of the earth in the next couple months &#8212; as far as &#8220;internet marketing&#8221; goes. All of my tools will be taken off the market and I&#8217;ll continue updating and supporting only those people who have already purchased.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of working on &#8220;this and that&#8221; I&#8217;ll be focusing on basically one thing &#8212; and it&#8217;s something that will change the world for a lot of people. (Okay, we&#8217;re not talking about &#8220;cure for cancer&#8221; kind of stuff, but it honestly will change people&#8217;s fortunes\/futures.)<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully this will all come about within the next month or so and as soon as I&#8217;m able to reveal the details I&#8217;ll post them here.<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t tell, <strong>I&#8217;m *very* excited about the possibilities!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>What Next for This Blog?<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ve already started posting some non-marketing things on this blog, so probably I&#8217;ll just morph this into a more personal site, rather than one that&#8217;s business (internet marketing) oriented. I&#8217;m actually looking forward to a separation of Jay the person and Jay the business. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>The marketing tools I&#8217;ve created will still continue to work for the people who are using them. If you&#8217;re a member of Sonic Toolkit or Instant Video Web Pages you will see no changes (other than future updates). It&#8217;s just that very soon I won&#8217;t be taking on any new marketing-oriented customers.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a fun ride but I think the train is pulling into the station. And quite possibly my ship is waiting for me at the dock. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;ve followed my blog for very long you know that, for the last several years, I&#8217;ve focused on making tools for internet marketers.
