Ric Raftis from Australia is an internet marketing expert, a trusted friend, and former partner in an online business. Our collaboration in international website design was a distraction from our two very different long term strategies. Early in 2007 we ended the promotion of our joint venture but certainly not our friendship.

Ric’s focus is helping new players who want to make a living as internet marketers with sales of informational products such as ebooks, and providing other resources for online success. Much of his advice is free. My strategy is helping small business owners who have a brick and mortar building and a physical product or service with custom website design and matching graphics for print.

Since meeting Ric in 2004 through an online technical forum, we have each grown substantially by bouncing off ideas for success based on truth, integrity, and character. Our philosophy has proven that the secret of success online is trust. Anything a person does to promote what they offer must strike a nerve to establish credibility and trust beyond a doubt.

Here are links to some of the current websites that Ric Raftis owns and manages:

No Bull Internet Marketing features anything and everything to do with online marketing.
Bush Verse has Australian bush poets including Ric who performs original work plus old masters.

As you can see, Ric is prolific in many ways, not just internet marketing. Our collaboration drove us both to new levels in XHTML for coding websites to custom graphics and artwork for a professional look. Take the time to visit his sites, and expect more quality work out of Australia from Ric Raftis.
