I know the above link is just spamming this article to generate possible sales for the guide you have created, but without even reading our book I am surprised at your comment. Please take the time to understand what our book is about, take the time to read it and you too may possibly be in a better situation where you wont have to spam comments on blogs and websites to try and generate possible sales based on other peoples hard work! Just a thought. Cheers Apple Ari,

As a young avatar I used to hang out at Molaskeys and it was certainly an inspiration to building my own SL business. Their advice is absolutely right - spend time living in SL and getting used to the environment before you undertake a business venture. Many people come to me asking how I did what I did, and my answer is usually to council them to get the hang of Second Life first... once you have done that you will find your interests and passions in SL, and that will guide you as an entrepreneur. I was delighted to see this article and the book, and I wish Jay and Sue (and Apple and Nasus!) all the very best! Congratulations Jay and Sue, you deserve every success!

When there is time, Apple and Nasus conduct a lecture series that features special guests from the book. At the lecture series the speakers graciously share their thoughts and answer questions from the audience. The book is great and tells of all sorts of success stories but it doesn’t stop there.

One correction though, I had enormous online experience, it was Sue that had almost none. As well, Here is the official SLurl to Molaskey's Pub... http://twurl.cc/ziq and here is the link to the Pub's website... http://molaskeys-pub.com Cheers, Apple / Jay Emmett,

I never dreamt it would get this big or be this demanding! its just like rl businesses the more you put in the more you get out and its not easy, specially considering how much sl has changed , it takes a lot of effort to keep up but lots of fun and learning too ;) Absolutely agree with all said – especially- ‘Before beginning an SL business, immerse yourself in SL life;’ i too started a business with the aim of it being self-sustaining and without putting my rl money in over 4 years ago.
