Alexandria Brown "The Ezine Queen" is CEO of Alexandria Brown International Inc., a multimillion dollar company devoted to empowering women around the world with the tools to live the freedom-based lives of their dreams.

Ali's journey into entrepreneurship was a natural one when -- after hopping from job to job in New York City -- she found herself frustrated and unemployable by her nature of always wanting to change things and improve upon them. After deciding to leave her final job in 1998 at a small New York City ad agency, she reviewed her options and chose the opportunity of owning her own business.

Not quite sure what to expect, and without a mentor or role model, Ali took it upon herself to learn what it takes to be successful. She immersed herself in books, audios, and courses on marketing, success, and prosperity. She was especially excited about online marketing because of its dynamic nature, low cost, broad reach, and easy accessibility for everyone.

Using a hand-me-down computer gifted by her younger brother, and working out of her tiny 5th floor walk-up pre-war apartment, she began using the power of online marketing to build her business. She became known as "The E-zine Queen" after becoming extremely adept at marketing her business via email newsletters, or "ezines", garnering her clients like New York Times Digital, Adweek Magazines, Scholastic Books, and Dun & Bradstreet.

When business owners began asking Ali for online marketing advice, she jumped on the opportunity to quickly create and sell her first online information product, an e-book titled Boost Business With Your Own Ezine, which is still one of her best selling training products today. From that moment on, she fast became the foremost authority in driving sales via e-mail publishing.

From there Ali began sharing her complete online marketing and information marketing formulas via products, coaching programs, and her own seminars, which combined have grown into the multimillion dollar company that Ali runs today. Her ezine, "Highlights on Marketing & Success" (formerly "Straight Shooter Marketing"), has over 28,000 subscribers around the world, and she currently has more than 800 solo-entrepreneurs enrolled in her high-energy coaching programs. Her marketing and success training products have helped thousands of them use email and the Internet to leverage their expertise, gain a broader reach, and dramatically increase their incomes. http://www.ezinequeen.com/
