Customer Success - $0 to $20k in 13 months - www.diveprodivegear.com

August 6th, 2008 at 8:09 am star

After 13 months of hard work and a crash course in internet fraud ... Kevin O'Brien at www.diveprodivegear.com sent me great this message yesterday.

This message is encouragement for the entire Website Forge community. Your hard work combined with the power of Website Forge will equal business success.

Shane:

Thought you'd also like to hear about our progress.

In the 13 months (June 2007) since we launched our website, www.diveprodivegear.com, we have gone from $0 sales to hitting $20K+ sales in July.

I expect we'll have our first $30K month during the Christmas season. This is just from the website. We have no brick & mortar business.

Thanks to the entire WF team for helping us achieve !! -- KOB.

Kevin!

Way to go!

You are a focused dedicated and one mean mean fighting machine!

This shows you what hard work and serious dedication can do.

The lesson Kevin has taught us all here is:

1. Never give up no matter what life throws at you!

This is a great example of a web site owner who is focused and will not let anything get in his way of his dream.

Kevin Keep up the good work. You are a example to all of us.

Thanks to all fellow WFers for your words of encouragement. We're not yet where we'd like to be, and we have a LOT to learn about e-biz, but we try to improve each day and take advantage of the great features & functions that WebsiteForge has to offer.

If we can help anyone in any way, just ask.

Thanks again -- KOB.

PS -- special thanks to Dale Spenrath at POS Processing for helping us to get through a pretty difficult time when the credit card fraud crisis hit us.
