Just 17

Why didn't I thought of that! Well, you are not alone after reading this young entrepreneur success story. The opportunities is still unlimited. Is only putting ideas into actions that count.

Ashley Qualls doesn't sound like a typical high school student. Maybe that's because the 17-year-old is the CEO of a million-dollar business.

Ashley is the head of whateverlife.com, a website she started when she was just 14 — with eight dollars borrowed from her mother. Now, just three years later, the website grosses more than $1 million a year, providing Ashley and her working class family a sense of security they had never really known.

t all started with capitalism 101, the law of supply and demand. Ashley became interested in graphic design just as the online social networking craze began to catch fire.

When she saw her friends personalizing their MySpace pages, she began creating and giving away MySpace background designs through Whateverlife. The designs are cheery, colorful and whimsical, with lots of hearts, Ashley's favorites.

She also pulled quotes from popular songs and built backgrounds around those themes. "Teenage girls love quotes," Ashley says, scrolling through some of her site's 3,000 designs, more than a third of which she made herself.

Thanks to Ashley's work ethic and savvy cultivation of her peer group as a target market, Whateverlife began pulling in more teenage girls than a Justin Timberlake concert - about a million a day. With a big audience, the site attracted advertisers. Ashley's first check was for $2,700. The next was for $5,000, the third for $10,000.

Now you got new inspiration to continue blog in a big way don't you?! Lets turn our hobby into a business like this 17 old gal that proved to us all need to do is 'Just do it'.

Cast your net

Please to inform that we have 'gave birth' to two (2) new 'babies' i.e. Mezra Builders Enterprise and Mezra Marketing & Trading on 26th May 2008 in launching ourselves to the deep by faith.

'Mezra' word was derive from original Malay word 'mesra' which mean friendly, hospitable, amicable (Webster's Online Dictionary Malay-English). To give it a global image, we change the 's' to 'z'. It also derive from the anchor word 'Ezra' which mean 'My Lord is my helper'. In Turkish 'Mezra' is also means 'arable field'.

In a quick glance, each of them will embark in separate business section:
  • Mezra Builders Enterprise will deal with construction from design, conceptual to physical constructing works.
  • Mezra Marketing & Trading will deal with products marketing and also trading. We are currently working out the products to be brought for marketing
A separate dedicated blog will be posted to service the above. So stay tune for further updates.

In the mean time, should you or your friends/contacts need such service feel free to give me a buzz. We are open for business!
