About Jon

This is Jon's site! This is Jon and his boy (Ryley):

Jon Woosley in the flesh...

Jonathan is 28 and lives in the Greater Cincinnati area. He has 1 son named Ryley. Jon is from the west, but has, for reason unknown, decided to make his home in Northern Kentucky. He graduated in 2003 from Northern Kentucky University after many long years of schooling with two separate Bachelors Degrees. One in Information Systems and another in Philosophy. An odd combination you might think, well Jonathan would reason they are complimentary to one another, as the logic and reasoning from Philosophy go hand in hand with programming code.

Jonathan currently works in the IT (Information Technology) industry. He is also trying to get a business off the ground. "What business?" you ask. Mighty good question. You see as long as he can remember he has been trying to make it on his own. No Jon wasn't a 'I want to divorce my parents and make it on my own' kind of kid, but he has lived on his own since he was 17. He has gone down just about every be your own boss kind of route you can think of. Jon, unlike many, understands that to make money you have to work hard. He does not think it will just fall into his lap (but man wouldn't it be nice!!!) Jon has a work ethic he is proud of, his friends know this and all of his previous and current employers know this. Therefore, he can only assume the lack of "making it" on his own has not been due to his lack of effort, but rather the idea or financial requirements needed to succeed. Jonathan has been in business long enough to know that it takes money to make money. While this does not mean you would need to pay $500 to be included in a program that promises to deliver financial independence, it does mean that you must make more than a time investment to succeed. This can be an arguable point, but here is his logic:

  • It takes money to advertise and market - while there are means of advertising that are free (streaking a major sporting event with a product name on your body for example), most conventional methods require some monetary investment.
  • It costs money to pay for materials to create an item
  • It costs money to pay bills
  • You can see where he is coming from. Jon understands there are methods of obtaining financing, but he is unaware of how exactly to begin the process. He has gone down various roads and followed directions with little to no success. Currently Jon owns around 7 domain names. Of those, Jon can feasibly make money from 3 of them, but only 1 is a realistic money maker. Well, it will be once he puts money into marketing for it. Jon does many things to make any additional money he can. He sells items on eBay (many of you may know of his recent Christmas-Xbox antics), Jon freelances designing websites for people, he tries to find things he can resell to make any kind of profit possible and he ponders what his nitche will be and if he will ever find it.

    Jonathan has some very strong opinons about things. Anyone that knows him, knows this. He enjoys many things, one of which is a deep philosophical conversation that makes one think about life and the things invloved in it. Jon wrote a paper on the Meaning of Life for a Philosophy class his (3rd or 4th) senior year of college.

    Jon needs money to support his family and freelance site design seems like a good way to do it. He is capable of giving your web site a nice makeover and optimizing it to be search engine friendly. So, it would still go back to helping him while helping yourself!
