My Updated Bio – Life Wasn’t So Bad Back Then :-)
Willie Crawford was raised on a tobacco farm in
North Carolina, living off welfare most of his
youth. His family was so poor that he once wore
his grandmother’s shoes to school while working
to earn money to replace his only dilapidated pair.
This built a burning desire in Willie to break
away from the poverty and build his own business.
Willie grew up in a home that never had air
conditioning, and had neither a phone nor a
television most of his youth. Willie bought the
family’s first car when he was 17 and working a
part-time, after-school job. Willie was 14
before he ever tasted steak (his family ate mostly
high-fat ground beef), and still hasn’t really
developed a taste for it.
Willie worked his way through college, then
joined the U.S. Air Force where he traveled to 47
different countries while serving as a navigator on
C-130 transport aircraft. During that time, Willie
also learned “a little” of five different languages.
In 1996, while still serving in the Air Force in
Hawaii, Willie decided to start his own
internet-based business. By the time he retired
from the Air Force in 2003, Willie had built that
into a 6-figure part-time income.
Willie is now one of the world’s leading internet
marketing experts, having spoken at dozens of
seminars in the United States, Malaysia, Singapore
and the U.K.
Willie has created dozens of information products,
written over 1300 articles and 50 ebooks on
ecommerce. He’s hosted seminars, and now hosts his
own radio show several times per week.
Willie has an incredible 1600 websites, some of
which get over 1 million unique visitors per month.
Willie leverages his knowledge of online marketing,
and the connections that he’s developed over the
years to help others launch products. Willie often
serves as a middleman or a joint venture broker.
He’s also Executive Director of The International
Association of Joint Venture Brokers.
Willie has written several books including a
best-selling soul food cookbook (featured in The
Soul Food Museum in Atlanta, Georgia), and an
inspirational biography, “Git Off The Porch.”
Willie now enjoys teaching others through his
courses, teleseminars, and live coaching program.

Willie also does a lot of group mentoring at The
Internet Marketing Inner Circle.
When Willie is not busy teaching ecommerce online
via The Internet Marketing Inner Circle, or
teaching local businesses to use the internet to
drive more business through their doors, he
enjoys deep sea fishing in The Gulf of Mexico…
not too far from his Florida home.
