Hey Bella you really build your own website?

I do, and because I do, I work for myself and nobody else owns my future.

Do you live to work? Or work so you can LIVE?

If you've EVER considered your own website as a means to go into business for yourself, I believe there is probably no better time than NOW to invest in yourself! When the economy is doing well, we tend to slip into a comfort zone. Thoughts like "I'd like to own my own business" end in "someday..."

But with the economy in a virtual shambles at this time, and every other investment you've made losing value by the minute, aren't YOU your own best investment? Aren't YOU the only sure thing you've got right now?

Now, if you know yourself well and you KNOW you aren't a good time manager, you're not responsible or reliable, or you're never on time, or you just honestly are NOT the kind of person who could ever own their own company, then you're probably right! You are the best judge of who you are and what your capabilities are. But if you do dream of owning your own business and you feel capable of it and you've just been holding out for that one "perfectly right time" that never seems to arrive (because perfect timing doesn't really exist), then I'd say the same thing goes for you. You are the best judge of who you are and what your capabilities are. So read this page!


Here's why and how I do it

People always ask me why I chose to build this site, and often also ask me how. Would you believe I never set out to build my own website? A little background:

First the WHY: "Bolivia! Oh, that’s in Africa, right?" (and lest you think I'm joking, someone started a Facebook group about it) - "Do you have to ride a donkey to school?" - "Are there buildings in Bolivia?" - "Are there toilets in Bolivia?" - "Are there cars in Bolivia?" - "How many coca leaves does it take to make cocaine?" I'm supposed to know?

Then one day a famous President (nevermind which one) told the world how glad he was he had studied Latin in school so he could speak with the people of Latin America (???) and followed up by saying he was so happy to be visiting Bolivia. Only he wasn't in Bolivia. He was in Brazil. And that's when I decided I had to get Bolivia back on the map!


Change the way you live and work!

Are you living to work? Or working so you can live and thrive? Work at something you feel passionate about! I use SBI (Site Build It) to build this site. Many people choose SBI because they have a product or service to sell and SBI is known to be the best e-business building system in the world. I didn't have a business or a business plan, I had information I wanted to share. Initially I wanted to write a book, then considered a blog, then chose SBI. I build this site because I feel passionate about ensuring people learn about the REAL Bolivia and in order to do that, I had to find a way to reach the largest audience possible. SBI helped me accomplish that.

Many SBI website owners build profitable businesses through their sites, others like myself, just wanted to be able to build one at all, and want to feel the satisfaction and fulfillment of that! When I decided I wanted to use my experience and travel to project Eastern Bolivia to the world (besides the fact that this region of Bolivia is grossly under-represented online) initially I thought I'd just build a blog although I was still in the process of figuring out what that was exactly. Here's why I didn't. It never occurred to me that I should (or even could) build my own website!

Click here to read more about what SITE BUILD IT is why SBI offers a 100% money back guarantee. Visit some websites by other SBIers and see why they're so happy. Some of them have sites about the weirdest stuff. Here's why I love being an SBIer and why instead of competing against each other, SBI website owners share freely and positively. Everyone learns from each other. SBIers are all convinced that PAYING FORWARD is the right thing to do - that means you give BEFORE you receive. We share with others before we ask for their help. Who does that in the corporate world any more!?

If you think you don't know enough about something to turn it into a business or build your own website about it, you're wrong! SBI even includes software that helps you figure out what you want to do! I started out not knowing much about the Internet, and absolutely nothing about building a website. Now BoliviaBella ranks among the top 1% of all sites in the world because SBI provides everything you need to accomplish that (except for your own BAM - that's Brains and Motivation - of course).

SBI gives you all the information and tools you need to make your website visible and rank well. In fact, before you actually start building your first page, you HAVE to spend time thinking and planning your BUSINESS before you can plan out the website that will support it! The process takes you to what you're really going to LOVE. We all want something to call our own that allows us to proudly say "I'm the boss of that!"

Why you should NOT invest in SBI!

Despite my complete enthusiasm about SBI please DO NOT purchase an SBI site if you are looking for a get-rich-quick scheme. SBIers are successful business and website owners because they are dedicated to what they do and they are dedicated because they create their own websites about subjects for which they really feel love and passion. If this isn't you, SBI is not the way to go. It's a process and it takes time. With your own website you WILL be your own boss. Are you ready for it?
