About Me

Thanks for stopping by my page! My name is Matt Trostle and I work at home full time. It took me a while to get here, but I finally made it! ;-)

I've been working at home for almost a year but have been studying internet marketing and the home business arena for about 8 years.

I got my first internet marketing gig working for an ecommerce company as the Director of Search Marketing. There I was able to attend some big time internet marketing conference and learned a ton!

I left there to work for an internet marketing firm and shortly after that I went to work for myself full time.

I now have the knowledge and experience to help others start and market their own small or home businesses. I know it's a dream for many others as it was, and still is, a dream for me.

If you need any help or advice you can contact me at my main site http://www.MattTrostle.com .

I also run a couple of other sites:

An idea that has been in my head for many years, I even owned the domain for 4 years before an actual site was launched, is InspireThePlanet.com

When I started learning about business and home businesses, network marketing in particular, I bumped into the field of Personal Development. I absolutely could not believe I hadn't really learned about this before. So I wanted to create a site dedicated to spreading personal development education to as many people as I can.

Go ahead and sign up for my Inspirational Quote of the Day !

In that newsletter I also give recommendations of books and programs that I find beneficial to the development of the mind and spirit.

This is kind of a "hobby site" for me. It started off being mainly about business greeting cards, a marketing tool I promote to Independent Professionals.

I love photography and especially graphic design so I thought I had a few serious business sites and decided I wanted a more fun site where I could just show off some of my designs.

It's taken a back-seat to InspireThePlanet.com for a little while though. But I still jot down all my ideas for the site in my handy notebook so I'll be able to add more to that site soon.
