I left school at 16 with very few qualifications and I spent the next 15 years of my life doing mostly unskilled manual labour jobs and spent the last 10 years of my ‘working’ life in a car plant. My job was on the production line and involved me doing the same task over and over again in 90-second cycles. Let me tell you when you have a job like that you are always looking for a way out.
In the year 1999, I acquired my first computer and straight away I realized there was money to be made on the Internet. So much so I found myself trying all sorts of programs and products in my quest for online fortunes, but most were either scams or involved so much work for so little reward I quickly found out it was not going to be as easy as first expected.
Then on the 24th of November 2002, I discovered eBay and I started looking for ways to make money from online auctions. I did ok for 2 years selling just about anything and everything but I was mostly selling mobile phone accessories.
Fast forward to December 2004, I was casually browsing eBay and I came across a collection of eBooks with resale rights on a CD. I bought the CD out of curiosity more than anything else and when it arrived I checked it out. That was my first experience with ‘Info Products’ and I decided I would have a go at selling my first eBook collection. At first, I just tried selling the CD with the eBooks on as I had bought it but I had little success as that was what everyone else was doing.
Things really started to happen when I decided to sell each eBook individually for a few dollars and deliver them electronically, this was a huge success and I quickly found I was earning $1000 per week from eBook sales alone. This was without even having any form of backend operation in place and I hadn’t even written my first eBook and I had no idea what building a mailing list was all about.
However, the best part was I learned to automate the whole process and I noticed no one else seemed to be doing this. Almost by complete fluke, I had developed my own system and it worked well …
… very very well.
This was when I decided to teach others how to copy my business, I created my first member’s website way back in 2004 and since then I have never looked back and have created a ton of info products.
And here we are today, you sitting here reading this blog and hopefully learning from it. Believe me, if someone told me what I would be doing today back in 2004 I would have laughed, but here we are, now you may be wondering why I’m telling you this. Well here’s why.
I decided I had to do something with my life, I hated my job. I hated leaving my 2 young sons and partner to go and do a 12-hour nightshift. I hated the fact we used to live from month to month and never seemed to have any money. We had to borrow money for Christmas, borrow money to go on vacation, borrow money to pay the bills, in fact, we were constantly in debt.
However, my story is nothing new, in fact, you may even be able to relate to this, and if you can you need to understand one thing. Only one person could do something about my life.
ME!
Not my boss, not my family, not the prime minister, not the lottery board, (I wish) but me. This is what you must understand. Only one person can change your life.
YOU!
Once you grasp this concept things will start to change for the better, if you hate your job, hate having no money, can’t work due to poor health or are retired or whatever situation you find yourself in it can change, but only you can do it.
Sure, I am here to guide and teach you but your success is in your hands and nothing can change that. You have to grasp what the Internet, and more importantly the information age has to offer, a better life for us all. We are all lucky to be living in this age, just 10 years ago this sort of lifestyle was not possible but now it is possible for each and every one of us to become a huge success because of the Internet and the fact people will pay for information, and it can only get bigger and better in the future. The Internet is creating successful, wealthy people on a daily basis.
I already know you have what it takes to become a success or you wouldn’t be sat here reading this far down the page, this alone proves you have the desire to succeed and as one of my blog readers, I aim to at the very least put you on that road to success. If there is ever anything I can do to help simply get in touch and I’ll do my very best to help.
To your success. John Thornhill

Your a self-made man, John. Your blog and page are great. They are neat and no reading distructions; no ads…
I am just one of the many people John has mentored to online success.
I too was trapped in a job I hated but now thanks to John’s help and guidance I support my family with the money I earn online.
I love what I do and because I work for myself it really doesn’t feel like work at all!
Thanks John and if I ever get up to the North East I owe you a pint!
Great new blog John, you continue to offer excellent advice and your mentoring has been the reason I started online.
Keep up the excellent work and I for one know where to come first if I need any advice.
Regards,
Brian
Hi John
Love the new look of your blog, I just wanted to add my 2 cents worth and also my thanks for being a genuine guy and someone that never shys away from helping anyone (even if those who aren’t part of the Planet Divinty family).
I also want to thank you and let others know about the awesome bonuses that you offer, I have actually bought ptoducts via John’s links because of the bonus he’s put together, many times his bonuses have been worth far more to me than the promoted product 🙂
Cheers John, take care.

Hi John,
Yours is a very inspirational story of how anyone with the right mindset can change their life and that was borne out on your first solo webinar tonight. Super professional yet very relaxed; way to go.
Chris
Nice to meet you and your blog and your last “Simple Traffic Solutions” product i just bought. No regret at all THX!

Hi john
I like the look of your website, and will be changing mine to try to be more like this.
read your background and very similar to my life.
Joined your Inner circle and WSO, and Like the fact that you are in England and not dealing with people in the USA all the time.
Look forward to working with you, and talking to you on Skype.

I have just begun to set up my first blog and I using some of the tips and training that John Thornhill provides in his INNER CIRCLE CLUB and other on his blog. If you want to have a great blog model your efforts after John Thornhill.
I am currently engrossed in Johns Partnership to success course and I find it fasinating, easy to follow and relaxing.I have tried all the other ways to make money online but its not as easy as people think??
In this business you need to know what you are doing so you NEED a Mentor!!! I am lucky enough to have signed up to Johns course and now he is my mentor. If I need help he is there as is his support network not to mention the forum.
If you want to learn internet Marketing? John is the one to talk too.
Good story John. I started following you back in June 2009. I have a lot of your products and am also in the Partnership to Success training program, which I am very excited about.
Thanks a lot John for sharing your knowledge in Simple Traffic Solution I just bought.
And your story is truly inspirational, but thing have changed in 2015. I’m eager to join your partnership program because I’m tired of not getting results for almost 1 year now. I finally came to the conclusion that I really need a mentor.
Hi John,
I bought a huge pile of products and tried almost every method under the sun to get converting traffic, but with no avail!
I’m now a P2S member for three months and built a killer blog, thanks to your training. It’s so easy to follow the modules!
I just started to work on my first product that will hopefully be promoted to your huge list. I think this is my only ticket to get in IM business and I feel so lucky to have you as mentor.
Hi John,
Glad to visit your blog and be one of your customers and a subscriber to your newsletter. I look forward to checking out more of your content.
