Bill Williams spent over two decades in broadcasting, running his own communications consulting and publishing company in Washington D.C. His entrepreneurial spirit kicked in when he developed the "Interstate Travelers Guides," a project that was once voted the best business plan of 1984. However, the stock market crash and the arrival of GPS technology brought an end to that dream.

Next Bill went into insurance. One of his biggest hurdles was getting his agents to simply read their emails. So he started ending out a daily "Thought for the Day" filled with humor and inspiration. "Thought for theDay" grew into a massive international email list.

The humor enjoyed by those list recipients is now in book form: "20 Years of Internet Humor." Bill's story reminds us that while change is inevitable, it can lead to unexpected opportunities and growth. And he reminds us, along the way, to smile.

 

It's an Award Winning, Amazon  best selling book!
