Using the Power of the Internet!"
If You Need Help, You've Come to the Right Place!
My name is Rhea (pronounced Ray) Perry and I have educated my 7 children since 1987. I was called the Community Queen when I started my online home business with a Yahoo! Group in 2002 and started helping others build membership sites. And I've been called the Mark Victor Hansen of the home school world because I motivate others to think creatively and become entrepreneurs. As a stay-at-home mom, my main goal in life is to encourage women to become the best homemakers they can be. I believe that includes helping their children discover their gifts and find their calling in life as early as possible. The family should also support the children until they enter their own personal journey on the road to financial security. Yet how can we do that when we haven't been educated or trained? We find ourselves learning as we are doing it with them. Sometimes we feel like the burden is too heavy. That's why I created this community so those of us on this journey can encourage each other and share our secrets along the way. Whether you desire to have a job or a home business for your children or yourself, the greatest country that has ever existed economically - America - offers unlimited opportunities, especially since the Internet has changed the rules. How can we fail when God is for us and desires to help each of us fulfill the purpose He put us here to achieve? My Family's Story When home education was in its infancy in the 1980s, my family represented Lifetime Books and Gifts in the Southeast for five years. During the time I served that cutting-edge educational company as a curriculum counselor, I learned way too much about this crazy thing called "home education." During that time, I became convinced that it is extremely important to prepare young people to enter the real world as leaders in business, entertainment and government. So I am dedicated to helping students of all ages discover what they want to be when they grow up, then get a clear vision to create a plan, and get the right education to prepare themselves to be successful in life. My oldest son, Drew, became a real estate investor when he was 18 and replaced his dad's income in just 3 years. Although I didn't have much hope for the boy, he was worth $1.4 million by the time he was 21. Now at 27, he is married, has a wonderful baby and teaches real estate investors how to sell houses on eBay. He spends 3 days walking students through his unique system for selling houses on eBay in about 17 days at a live event called www.SellingHousesOnlineWorkshop.com. Our Company My company, Educating for Success, Inc., is dedicated to helping others learn how to educate teens and adults so they can become successful like Drew and start home businesses of their own, instead of simply taking a job. To become financially free requires learning to think differently. Instead of training young people to think like employees who operate on the left side of the Cashflow Quadrant as explained in Robert Kiyosaki's insightful book, we help parents learn how to educate their children to operate on the right side of the quadrant as business owners and investors. (Robert actually invited Drew and me to visit with him at his office in Mesa, Arizona in 2006. Sharon Lechter, Anita Rodriquez and others on his team joined us.) We provide real education through:
1. Ebooks
2. Online classes
3. Annual International home business conferences for parents and teens
4. Our ongoing mentoring program
5. A variety of mentoring community sites
Some of the families who have mentored with us and the experts we bring to them (many are the Internet millionaires) have done very well. A Few of Our Success Stories Dave Mitchell of Monterrey came to me years ago wanting to leave his job as an engineer in corporate America to start a business from home. He wanted to help his wife, Kay, raise and educate their six boys. I helped him figure out how to start an online recording business called RecordedMoments.com to record conference calls for Internet Marketers. Today, they serve marketers all over America. In February of 2007, Dave was diagnosed with liver cancer. In April, he died. He was 50 years old. The business he left behind has continued to provide a steady income for Kay and the boys. If he had not stepped out in faith and started Recorded Moments, the family would have been left with no source of income. Michael Schultz of New York left his job to support his family of 13 by selling books on eBay. Yes, he and his wife Julie Anna have 11 children. Through implementing the principles we shared in my Yahoo! Group, they met their goals in just one year to live debt free with Michael at home coordinating the family business. While working with Lifetime Books, I continually shared my new-found knowledge of the Internet with owner Bob Farewell and his wife Tina. As a result, they eventually sold their business and today Bob has a successful mentoring program at his home in Lake Wales, Florida. Mary Jo Tate, a single mom home educating four boys, went from being unemployed to editing major publications, then on to helping others write their own books. She was soon awarded Protege of the Year 2006 and received a standing ovation at our annual Entrepreneur Days when she cut up her WIC card on the stage because she no longer qualified for it. Karen Brunet, who was forced to move from Southern Louisiana to Tennessee because of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, became a successful webmaster after taking a few of our classes. She became our Protege of the Year 2007. These are just a few of the success stories that have resulted from the efforts of my team at Educating for Success. We all operate from homes all over America to create education and home business systems for families to implement. Our Mentoring Program I believe in taking home education one step further by encouraging families to consider Entrepreneurial Education, a philosophy focused on preparing students who may or may not be college-bound to create successful home businesses that create passive residual income. I continually encourage members of our Protege program - RheasProteges.com - to align themselves with successful mentors in particular areas of interest. Most of the mentors I bring to our guests at our two annual home business conferences are known as the Internet millionaires. We focus on:
* Basic Business
* Real estate investing
* Internet marketing
* Stock market investing
* Publishing online and offline books and ebooks
* Selling on eBay
* Event planning and hosting
Our students are also encouraged to work with us in several of the service companies we have created. We're always ready to train folks when we discover new industries. Our Online Classes Here are a few of our online classes and resulting services:
* Transcribing
* Editing
* Writing for the Web
* Becoming a Virtual Assistant
* Social Media Management
