Hi, I’m Nick Collins<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

In my 2 decades of self-employment, this is most likely the 20th ‘about me’ page I have written and I would typically write them in the third person, as if I was not the website owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I have gotten older and wiser I have adapted to the Keep it Simple method and rather than create another third person about me page I figure I would simply write this page as if it was a note to a friend looking for advice. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

With that said….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What would you like to know?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m 42 years old and I live on a farm in Glen Rock, PA with my wife, Mandy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have one sweet little boy, two lizards, a Cockatoo, and a wrinkle-faced dog name Ori. (image here)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been self-employed since 1999 and created over 15 businesses and sold 5 to date. I will talk more on that later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am thinking by this point, you may be starting to wonder,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is This Nick guy Worth My Time And Attention?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For most readers, my answer is YES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may be going through life, collecting a paycheck, and working at a job that makes you unhappy.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You realize you want and need a change, you have a great idea or are passionate about something but don’t know how to monetize it or where to start, and don’t want to go at it alone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great news is I can help and I really am good at what I do. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
