Singles Lifestyle Experience
Brad began learning about the needs of singles as he built and led a unique, highly successful non-profit singles organization in Orange County, California. For more information read the article on this site entitled, Singles Club! How to Build a Successful Singles Organization
He refined his knowledge about singles as he researched and wrote books on how to find a partner who’s right for you and non-confrontational couple’s communication.
In preparation for his books, singles club, and websites, Brad conducted extensive formal research on mate selection criteria around the world and throughout history. This study also looked at what men and women want in a partner and the similarities and differences in their respective criteria.
The combined experience of all of the above, along with the knowledge he acquired from reading hundreds of personal development books led to the creation of the ideas presented in his books, articles, and websites. The result is concepts based on established analytical techniques, proven human performance principles, and just plain common sense.
He has been blessed with the opportunity to date over 200 women and have many magnificent love relationships. He has also had many excruciatingly painful breakups. He doesn’t share this information to brag, but rather to offer it as credentials, if you will, of his experience on both sides of this issue. In fact, it was the painful breakups that inspired him to look for solutions and want to help others through his books and websites.
As for having the skills to date a lot of women, it certainly hasn’t always been that way for Brad. During his teens, he was so shy and fearful that he rarely spoke to anyone, and especially not to females. He shares his story about this in an article on this site entitled, ”Overcoming Shyness - The Pathway & Methods for Success!”
Biography
Like so many, Brad grew up in a broken home. His mother remarried but it was a bad match. When tensions reached the breaking point, he left home at the age of 15. Unlike his childhood hero, Tom Sawyer , the police quickly apprehended him. He was sent to jail, court, juvenile hall, and finally a boys’ home.
The boys’ home was an offshoot of the famous Boys Town in Nebraska. (The Oscar-winning movie ”Boys Town” starring Spencer Tracy, tells the story.) Being there was the best thing that could have happened to him. He achieved the most coveted position at the boy's home and graduated with a small scholarship.
After graduating with honors from college, he joined a well-known Fortune 500 company. Starting at the bottom, he rose rapidly through the ranks to head of a marketing group responsible for generating $400 million dollars in annual product sales to 900 retail outlets throughout the United States.
He gained much insight on relationship issues as he built and led a non-profit singles organization during his off time. Always wary of singles clubs, he set out to create one with a unique approach that would distinguish it from all others. The response was tremendous and the club grew swiftly.
Feeling the pull of a higher calling, Brad left the corporate world after many years of dedicated service to find work that was more meaningful. He devoted the next several years to developing an effective and simpler way to achieve the vital goals in a person's life such as finding an ideal partner, transforming a present relationship, and other key issues.
Today, Brad devotes his time to writing and development products that improve people’s lives and building websites that support these activites.
Writing Style
Brad’s writing style is concise and focused. His objective is to "minimize" reading time and "maximize" reader implementation activity. To support this goal he frequently includes worksheets or activity instructions. He specializes in personal development and how-to articles and books, many of which center on singles issues.
If you’re looking for articles or books that describe things in intricate detail or offer shallow quick fixes, then you’ll need to look elsewhere. If you want succinct, practical, and inspirational ideas for facing, solving, and mastering the unique challenges of being single you’ll find them here.

About Solotopia
How I Built This Site
After I left my corporate job, I really did a lot of soul searching on what I wanted to do next. Because I loved the idea of having freedom in all areas of my life, I naturally gravitated toward creating my own online business.
An Internet business would give me the freedom to live anywhere, work anywhere, and travel anywhere I wanted! It would also fulfill my desire to do work that utilized my talents, aligned with my values, and made a positive contribution to the world.
Being single, I knew that I had one of the most important components for building a successful online business – lots of unencumbered free time. It seemed like a perfect match!
I started learning about the Internet and website design through a few university courses I took in 1997. I began building my first online businesses over several years beginning in 2000. Each of them produced very little traffic or income.
In early 2008, I was shocked to learn that 99% of new Internet businesses fail! I had to admit to myself that I was a part of this group… until I discovered Site Build It!
The difference with Site Sell, and the Site Build It product, from all other hosting companies is its enormous educational features, its cutting-edge behind the scenes technology, and its outstanding support mechanisms.
I transferred Solotopia.com to Site Build It (SBI) in March of 2008. I saw more traffic on this site during the first eight (8) months with SBI than I did during the prior seven (7) years put together! And all of the traffic was produced for free! SBI shows you how to generate traffic without spending a dollar on advertising! SBI has proven to be the perfect online business partner for me.
One of the best things about Site Build It is that fits everyone from the beginner to the seasoned veteran. They also have a great affiliate program. The thing I like most about SBI is its philosophy of keeping things real and honest.

Name
The name Solotopia was derived from the words “solo” (* A performance or accomplishment by a single individual.) and “utopia” (* A condition, place, or situation of perfection.).
The word “singles” is infected with many negative connotations. Therefore, the word “solo” was selected to represent the “singles” identification in the name. The word “utopia” was chosen because its definition describes the spirit and ambition of the organization.
* Oxford American Desk Dictionary & Thesaurus (2001 Oxford University Press, Inc.)
Anthem
U2’s ”One” (Click for music video.)
Closing lyrics…
“One love. One blood. One life. You got to do what you should. One life. With each other. Sisters. Brothers. One life. But we're not the same. We get to… Carry each other. Carry each other. One. One.”
