A Special Man's Triumph In The Gold Rush!
Thomas F. Seymour is a 48 year old man, from West Hartford CT. He was
diagnosed with polio as a child. Thomas has never really had the use of his
legs. He has also been burdened his entire life with all the other challenges
that polio can bring with it.
The day I met Thomas at his home for the first time, he was in the middle of
his yard spreading a pile of mulch, 8 feet wide and 5 feet tall. He did this
while seated on the ground with a shovel. He looked up at me, and smiled, as
he said "Good Day." I then took notice of a garden of wild flowers and
vegetables, impressive enough to make any farmer jealous.
I just had to think of the obstacles that he has had to overcome every day of
his life. Daily tasks, most of us take for granted, can be time consuming and
tough for someone with Thomas' disability. I have never seen Thomas complain,
or allow himself to be set back by challenges.
The perspective from a man like Thomas F. Seymour has on success, is from a
much different point of view. It is a perspective all of us can learn from.
Thomas told me, when we first met, that all he wanted was "money, coming to
him, in the mail from everywhere","I would rather take only a dollar from
thousands of people than to take a thousand dollars from one." Said Thomas.
With this idea in mind he started his first online business "The Gold Link."
http://www.tgoldlink.com.
He was easily able to corner the price on high quality solid 14kt Italian
gold, with an Internet low of $10 per gram. His pricing allowed Thomas a very
competitive position in his online venture. He now had the best place to get
gold on the Internet, but ... it was hidden in the woods.
The first real obstacle Thomas ran into was getting traffic to his online
store. For 3 years Thomas persisted with the Gold Link with the credit card
processing fees and webhosting fees eating into his low monthly profits. To
make things worse he invested a great deal of money with many ineffective
Internet marketer's.
His turn around came, when he saw an ad for "Guaranteed Front Page Placement
in all the Major Search Engines for under $100." (This can be found at
http://www.rhinosweb.com/frontpage.html)
Thomas bought the book, and discovered,
he could master the search engines
and gain some real targeted traffic to his Gold Link Website. This worked so
well for him the author, and asked me for training in other marketing
tactics. This led to our meeting.
I met Thomas in his third year of owning the Gold Link, and he told me of his
obstacles. He had given away thousands of dollars for a front page search
engine placement that never came. As well as other high traffic promises gone
bad. His major problem was a lack of traffic, which equaled lack of sales,
and that equaled a loss.
However, Thomas never entertained quitting. Not even close. He has been
growing and adding other businesses to his multiple income streams on a
regular basis. His next project will be an Internet Mall.
"What will you do with your success now Thomas?" I asked.
"Success is the progressive realization of a worthwhile goal or dream." Said
Thomas. "My goal and dream is to walk again. I'd gladly like an opportunity
be a case study patient for any Doctor looking to try a leg transplant or
robotics/bionics. Since no one has taken me up on that yet, I'll just, make
enough money with my Gold Link site that I'll buy them in a few years."
In a world where Thomas F. Seymour was challenged by physical limitations, he
found a way to triumph. He took his eyes off of his obstacles, and focused on
opportunities, until he recognized his. The Internet took away any physical
limitations. He knew he could compete with multimillion dollar startup
dotcom's and win. The Internet has truly leveled the playing field for all of
us.
