What’s The Middle Finger Project, Anyway?

Meet Ashley Ambirge, Founder

1. SASSIEST SMALL BIZ CONSULTANT ON THE BLOCK.

Hey, I’m Ash, and I started The Middle Finger Project back in October of ’09 as a way to serve up devilishly good insights on how to start, run and rock your small business using the internet…so you can stop trading all of your hours for dollars, work better, and attain a higher quality of life.  The goal?  A raw, authentic, incandescent, unabashedly boundless existence that’s good for your soul + good for your pocket.

I’m the voice of the blog, where you might also hear about my fetish for pilots, my travel escapades, and/or my fear of purple velour. I also might use foul language to do so. Though, judging by title, I’m sure this comes as no surprise.

2. FORMER CORPORATE MARKETING, PR & SALES PRO.

From former publicist at AWeber, everyone’s favorite email marketing provider, to advertising sales for large, multi-national online companies, all the way to marketing strategist + copywriter for small to medium sized businesses and tech start-ups, I’ve been around the business block enough times to make a few head’s spin.

I live mostly in Chile (with intermittent trips to places like Costa Rica, France, Spain or wherever), work from my laptop, drink red wine in the afternoon, and relish in the freedom that comes with my lifestyle.

3. I’M ALSO AN AUTHOR + TEACHER.

My digital book, You Don’t Need a Job, You Need Guts:  Combining Passion + Self + Business Through Digital Entrepreneurship is a pretty hot item around these parts, which will help give you a foundation to start a personal-branding based business.
I’ve also developed several home study programs for small business owners who need more clients…or who want to develop, market and sell digital products online. You can check those out here.

On a related note, I’m also a web copywriter specializing exclusively in the development of personality-filled web copy designed to help hip businesses + individuals better engage and convert. I’m fairly selective with the type of projects I get involved with, and only work with those interested in creating a genuine, engaging experience for their audience via clever, fun, personality-filled copy.
