My Internet Marketing Business for Sale
Last night I leaked out to some friends on my personal email list as well as my Twitter Followers that I had decided to sell my Internet marketing business. (My Tweet Peeps get secret messages!)
Here is the link for more information about this very unique (1 buyer only) opportunity.
A couple of people emailed me and asked what I was going to do if I quit doing online marketing. To clarify, I'm NOT going to stop making money online. I am simply selling off the part of my business that you probably know me for, creating products for Internet marketers.
This blog will stop posting Internet marketing related articles - and transition to the stuff I really want to be doing - creating videos, satire, music, opinion and commentary - and quite probably an Internet radio show.
I LOVE Internet marketing - but as I mention in the Internet Marketing Business for Sale page - I'm just no longer really turned on by creating stuff for our market.
A long time ago - back in the Blogburner/Blog & Ping days, people used to say - "DUDE! Why are you selling this technology and methodology? If you would simply DO the strategy yourself you'd make a pile of cash!"
So, my plan is to apply my mad skills to getting paid for the stuff I really enjoy doing.
I would really appreciate hearing your thoughts for me - nice words - advice - or head's up opportunities below. If you know someone who loves Internet marketing and wants to be in this business to help people make money online - please let them know about the opportunity?

Go for it Rick,
life's too short to spend doing stuff you don't want to do. Sounds obvious, but maybe we're talking 80% of the population are probably doing that?

Congratulations, Rick. Few people have the courage stop what they fell into and have adequate results with to pursue what they love and can excel at.
You've built a great asset here. I hope you find just the right person to continue where you left off.
Best regards,

Riiiiick!
You know I love you, bru… and this is probably one of the better moves I've seen you make, since I've known you.
The Producer in me says, "Let your TRUE personality shine.. be sarcastic and intellectual.. straight forward and controversial.. informative and keep it real.".. You know, the Rick that was in the back of the Limo in Vegas.
Do the damned thang, bru. Its your calling.
Peace & Holla (no, seriously.. talk to me),
William
Thanks Stevie and Jerry - I am not leaving the Internet marketing world - just repurposing (reinventing?) me back on track with my love of entertainment, motivation, and controversial opinion!
This blog will be my home based for the upcoming Rick Butts Show for real!
My aim is that the things you've liked from me will be even better, brighter, and clearer.
Either that or you'll think I suck and buh-bye me!
Rick
Rick,
I recently made a similar transition from continuing trying to make money selling things I don't have much interest to building an authority site based on a long lost passion.
I'm going to enjoy the journey and hope to help bring a piece that's been missing back to a lot of people.
Best,
Jeff
Glad for you Rick, no doubt you will do great in the new gig.
Gee, videos, social satire, opinion and edgy commentary, who does that remind me of?
Can ya think of anybody????

Hey William -
I really appreciate you taking the time to comment on my personal quest - very kind of you.
Somehow my performance of Usher's "Yeah" in the limo in Las Vegas has got me pegged as a wild and crazy guy - okay - that's me!
LOL

Best wishes, my friend… I am so behind you 100% in pursuing a life of complete enjoyment. For me, it's internet marketing… formerly on the low, but I know too much, and too many people, clandestinely and not, so I'm interesting in your offer (which I've yet to check out).
In fact, someone else just gave me their blog for the creative offer I made them…
Anyways, wish you well and hope you keep making the rounds at least.

Hey Rick,
Pam Ragland just told me about you selling the biz to Carrie so I had to come see what your plans are.
I'm sooo relieved to know you'll still be around and I think a radio show sounds like an excellent idea, although I really enjoy your live ustream broadcasts.
Whatever you decide, I wish you well my friend, and will be supporting you all the way.
