I first got to know of Laura Alter from PlanetAndrea (aka Andrea Schoemaker).
Laura attended the inaugural Elite Retreat and has been very successful in her brick-and-mortar computer business and is also owner of the popular NotebookForums site too.
Besides having 3 sweet kids (her 5 year old plays a mean game of warcraft), she’s pretty tech savvy.
Check out her blog:
Laura’s got one of the prettiest WordPress templates I’ve seen and Matt Brett (a fellow 9rules member) did a great job on it.
If you need inspiration for your own Internet Marketing efforts, read Laura’s post “PC Torque – $25 million in 4 years“
Andrew! You are so sweet. Thanks for the nod! Keep up the great work over here – you are a great blogging inspiration. 🙂

Welcome! How did you guys like the Elite Retreat? I notice that from the pictures that many of the participants are actually known in the marketing scene. Was it more for getting to know other marketers or a learning experience for getting into the affiliate industry?
Hi,
You might like to visit Laura’s blog and welcome her there instead…
And say Andrew Wee sent you!
I didn’t get the ER, although it would’ve been an interesting experience.
There’s another one coming up and you can check the information at the website.
There were quite a number of experienced marketers there like Chris Hooley, Wendy Piersall among others.
From what I know, it’s both an intensive learning experience from Shoemoney et al. as well as great networking with the other marketers.
And if you’re nice, I believe Laura might blog about it.
Hey Laura,
I look forward to checking out your blog.
Perhaps you might do a case study of your PCTorque.com experience.
I’m sure lots of people (present company included) would be interested.
Not only does Laura have the coolest looking b-log, but she’s also the sweetest girl in the world and I love her to pieces!
Agreed!
ER was awesome – I would LOVE to go again (Dallas, maybe?). It was the ultimate combination of networking and learning. I had never been to a conference before that, so I am totally spoiled now.
I have stayed in touch with many people from the event. I am sure it’s getting better and better, too.
I am going to make a note to write about that! 🙂
Laura
YOU GUYS! Making me blush over here. This is such a great welcome to the blogging world! 🙂
Andrea, you know you’re my girl. I MISS YOU!
Laura
Looking forward to checking it out.
Thanks for the info. Laura, I will be adding your site to my list to visit.
