Once upon a time, in a lush, vibrant forest, there lived a clever fox named Felix. Felix was known for his wit and resourcefulness, always finding innovative ways to solve problems. However, as the days passed, Felix noticed a strange occurrence: many of his forest friends were losing their jobs to the new AI-driven creatures that had started to appear.

The rabbits, once the best diggers in the forest, were replaced by mechanical moles. 

The birds, known for their impeccable navigation skills, were overshadowed by flying drones.

Even the wise old owl, with his vast knowledge, found himself competing with AI-driven data processors.

Concerned about the future, Felix decided to seek the wisdom of the Great Bear, the oldest and wisest creature in the forest. The Great Bear lived atop the highest hill, overlooking the entire forest, and was known for his deep understanding of change and adaptation.

“Great Bear,” Felix began, “I see many of our friends losing their jobs to these new AI creatures. How can we secure our future and ensure we don’t fall prey to the same fate?”

The Great Bear smiled warmly and motioned for Felix to sit beside him. “Felix, my clever friend, the world is always changing. Those who thrive are not necessarily the strongest or the most intelligent, but those who are most adaptable to change. There is a way to safeguard your future, and that is by mastering the art of online marketing.”

“Online marketing?” Felix tilted his head in curiosity. “How can that help us?”

“Let me tell you a story,” the Great Bear began. “Once, there was a young squirrel named Sienna. She was worried about the same thing – losing her job to AI. She noticed that while the mechanical moles could dig better and faster, they couldn’t connect with other creatures the way she could. 

Sienna decided to learn the art of online marketing, creating engaging content, and promoting the unique skills and products of her fellow forest creatures. Through her efforts, she not only secured her future but also helped many others adapt and thrive.”

Felix’s eyes sparkled with interest. “So, you’re saying that by learning online marketing, I can create a niche for myself that AI cannot easily replace?”

“Exactly,” nodded the Great Bear. “Online marketing relies heavily on human creativity, emotional intelligence, and the ability to build relationships – qualities that AI, no matter how advanced, cannot replicate. 

By leveraging these skills, you can stay ahead of the curve and even turn the tide in your favor.”

Felix left the Great Bear with a newfound sense of purpose. 

He decided to dive into the world of online marketing. He attended webinars, read blogs, and even joined online communities to learn from experienced marketers. Felix discovered the power of social media, content creation, and digital advertising.

He began helping his friends showcase their unique talents and products. The rabbits started a blog about the best burrowing techniques, the birds created a navigation app, and the wise old owl started a podcast sharing his knowledge. 

Felix’s marketing skills brought visibility and success to their ventures, creating a thriving community that the AI-driven creatures couldn’t compete with.

The forest flourished once again, and Felix became a celebrated figure, not just for his cleverness but for his foresight and adaptability. He had found a way to secure his future and help his friends by embracing change and leveraging the power of online marketing.

And so, the forest creatures learned an invaluable lesson: in the face of change, those who embrace new skills and adapt are the ones who thrive. 

Online marketing became their hedge against the uncertainties of the future, ensuring that they would always have a place in their beloved forest.


Moral of the story: In a world relentlessly reshaped by AI, mastering online marketing is not just a skill—it’s a lifeline. It allows you to harness your unique human qualities to create opportunities and forge a future that technology alone cannot overshadow.

Think of me as Felix (my real name is Steve). I want to help you learn the opportunities available in Online Marketing and Making Money Online. 

But, nobody can do it alone. I learned to harness the knowledge of other animals in the forest. 

One of them is my friend, the Great Bear, John Thornhill. He lives in the forest across the pond from me. Click here to watch a free webinar that he put together. If you are just curious, this is a great place to start.

I have been in the sales and marketing world for over 47 years. I’ve written 4 books, taught copywriting, been a business coach, and have been involved with online marketing since the first computers (yes, I am no spring chicken). As I move into my retirement stage of life, I have decided to go deeper into the affiliate marketplace and create a passive (yeah, right) income. I joke about passive income because the truth of the matter is that to be successful at anything takes time and consistent effort. It also takes an email list. You’ve heard the saying that “the money is in the list.” Of all of the claims you will hear in online marketing, that statement is the truest! It is also true that having systems in place is key. If you have a list, and you have systems, you WILL create passive income. It just takes upfront work to get there. If you care to learn more about me, visit my personal website here. I wish you success in your online marketing journey. I hope to be an asset to you.
