FIRSTALPHA has been my focus for 21 years... it symbolises my desire to create a corporate entity, separate from myself as a freelance web developer... I create simple webpages with minimal code and more complex websites with advanced applications, for people who want to manage their own webpace...

The FIRSTALPHA help files will describe how a FIRSTALPHA account can encourage the subscriber to achieve Internet Supremacy...

ecademy

Ecademy is where my online networking started...

In February 2006, I travelled to Oxford for an Ecademy off-line meeting at the Qi Club. This was hosted by Mike Southon, author of The Beermat Entrepreneur. In January 2008, I upgraded my membership to what was called 'Blackstar'... this was 'accelerated' networking where many off-line events were organised by the leadership team which included Ecademy founders, Thomas & Penny Power. In January 2013, the platform was taken over and renamed SunZu...

Conversational Leadership

What is the speed of your 'Web Pace'? Everything happens faster on the web... when you read a book, or have it read to you, authors will often refer to the output of those who have travelled life's journey before... these references can be quickly accessed and their relevance assessed... when you are online...

Author John C Maxwell states that 'Growth is the only guarantee that tomorrow is going to get better'... through his Million Leaders Mandate, John has helped to inspire more than five million leaders in 180 countries...

My LinkedIn Journey...

I reached 500 connections in July 2010... about the same time that LinkedIn was valued at $2billion...

Inevitably, there will be people with whom I am connected that I do not know well... I am, therefore, planning to be more pro-active in the coming months...

John Francis Welch Jr.

Jack Welch (1935-2020) is the embodiment of the American dream... he graduated from the University of Illinois in 1960, with a masters and a PhD, joining the General Electric Company as a junior chemical engineer... in 1981 he became GE's youngest chairman and CEO, quickly revamping the management to achieve top industry leadership status... on his retirement in 2001, he is believed to have been awarded a $417m severance payment...

He founded the Jack Welch Management Institute in 2009 producing an award winning MBA program... Click here for a webinar replay of a JWMI presentation on 11 August... the slides for the presentation can be viewed at jack-welch.pdf...

A Recommended Book list

Change is inevitable and can often be controversial... It is no secret that all human beings believe that their opinions are perfectly aligned with the facts of life... at the same time, we all know, for a fact, that each and every one of us can only ever control that which we think about and the actions which we take as a result... individually, we decide who will influence our decisions... thus, if a true expert cannot easily demonstrate their expertise, others will find it difficult to make the commitment of time and effort to gain intuitive understanding of their chosen expert's methodology... your opinions will influence your actions... so... be sure that your opinions are influenced by the writings of honourable people... Norman Vincent Peale's Wikipedia entry... this might appear controversial...

... this is the bottom of the second column... by purchasing a FIRSTALPHA reseller account, you are making a commitment to begin a business relationship with me and my company, FIRSTALPHA LTD... the other sign-up invitations, GrooveDigital and the Core Asset, are third party services to which I subscribe and I will welcome the opportunity of describing the benefits of each to you... I have included the link to Jack Welch because he was a much admired 'captain of industry' and the author, Napoleon Hill, extolled the virtues of convening an imaginary mastermind to resolve business issues... I very much hope you will take ownership of a FIRSTALPHA reseller account at 1STA.MOBI today... there is a Money Back Guarantee...

... this is the bottom of the third column... I think of the FIRSTALPHA reseller account as a series of educational modules... the diligent student will study the help files and become familiar with all aspects of the services... an example of a FIRSTALPHA reseller shop front is at Interactive Internet Services and the back office dashboard is reproduced at BIZEVOLVE.NET... when ownership of a FIRSTALPHA reseller account at 1STA.MOBI is NOT for you, a customer account at Naming Creatively is a great way to experience these useful applications using the off-site DNS service with a domain name registered elsewhere... there is a Money Back Guarantee...
