SparkGuy’s Blog – Sparking People To Reach Goals!

Founder/CEO of SparkPeople.com, one of the largest healt-related websites

I overcame shyness and anxiety by developing a personal improvement program that combines areas that help your body (fitness, nutrition, etc.) with areas that help your mind (goal setting, leadership, etc.).
The passion and energy from this helped me reach my personal and professional goals when the first company I co-founded became eBay’s first acquisition just prior to their IPO. I then met my wife at eBay. So, if it hadn’t been for this program, I wouldn’t have achieved these personal and professional goals.
I then started a new company to SPARK millions of PEOPLE to reach their goals!

I’ve been working for about 7 years on this company, and about 6 months on the blog.

Our site receives over 100,000 visitors per day. My personal blog receives a very small fraction of that.

The site is ad-supported. We do internal ad sales and also work with external firms and networks.

People who want to reach their goals and are inspired by other personal stories.

Not much on the blog itself, I spend about 30 minutes per day on our message boards and then put great posts I see on my blog.

You might be sparked to reach goals you never thought possible!

Be yourself and try to develop a unique niche.
