RoMay Allen - Internet Entrepreneur
Hello all!
Welcome to my blog.
Just to give you a bit of background. I come from a family of entrepreneurs. My parents started us out young to get us to develop our individual talents and I have been working since I was very young. We always had a family business and other businesses have branched off from there.
My brother Paul Allen started companies such as Infobases, Inc., MyFamily.com,
Ancestry.com, Infobase Ventures, LDS Audio, LDS Media, 10x Marketing,WorldHistory.com and more. My brother Curt Allen started Folio Corp., and now runs Agilix. They are both incredibly brilliant and are industry leaders. I have been priviledged to work with both of them at various times and have been able to glean a little knowledge for myself.
I have another brother, Mark Allen, who is a media genius and has his own video production company - ASOLO Productions. He has produced media with great people such as James Earl Jones, Jake Garn, and President Jimmy Carter to name a few. His work is incredible and I have not seen anyone do better in producing uplifting media.
My younger brother Rob Allen builds beautiful log furniture and does most of his business through ebay and his webstore Montana Log Outfitters.
Needless to say, we all have the entrepreneurial spirit. So, with that said, here's a bit of my personal background. I've run several businesses and have managed many projects. I'm moving more into a creative environment now and actually have several contract projects for designing, writing, and am in the process of building a life coaching business. I hope the things I have to share here will inspire you or give you some insights on your own ventures.
