Mark Maupin is a very successful full time professional internet marketer. Mark not only makes a nice living for himself off of the internet, he also employs a number of other contractors in his internet businesses. That's right, Mark has developed multiple internet businesses. When I met Mark in 2006 I don't think he was making a dime off of the internet. Over the last seven years he has developed businesses that provide a nice income for his family - and others - through him. Mark is a very transparent and generous person. One of the best that I've seen in terms of freely telling other people how to generate income. If you're interested in taking your business to the next level using the internet, Mark alone would be worth coming out to see.

Versandra recently exposed her marketing skills locally by helping to launch the new, explosively successful Whole Foods Market in Detroit. For more information I have attached Versandra's bio.
