Herb Guenewald Helping Others




Hi Ya’ll, (that’s southern for hello everyone)
Wow, what an honor to be chosen to do my bio for you all. I really appreciate this opportunity. Wow, I don’t know where to start or how much in-depth I should go? I probably will bore you with my really dull lifestyle. I haven’t been to any really exotic places like some you. Or traveled the world or even the states that much. I general like to stay low key. Crowds turn me off. That’s why I like to hide here behind my computer. Well I’ll give it a try.

My name is Herb Gruenewald, (Gruenewald means green wood, woods or forest in german. I hear that there actually is a forest maybe a park by now, in Germany called “Gruenewalde”) I was born in Detroit “City” on Smart Street, (Now I’m not bragging to say I’m smart), Smart was the name of the builder that owned the property and built the homes. Attended kindergarten at Priest School (no I wasn’t going to study to be a priest, that was the name of the public school) Later I went to Gethsemane Lutheran fo eight years of study and then to Chadsey High.

Growing up with my four siblings was a lot of fun. There were my two brothers, Harvey and Gordon, and my two sisters, Lucille and Marge. The only ones left of our tribe are Marge and myself. My dad, Herb Sr, died when I was fifteen, Marge was seventeen and Gordon ten. Lucille and Harvey were my half brother and sister from my father’s first wife who had died giving birth to another half- sister to be, Ruth, who died with her mother. My mother Helen died in 1961, just before my ex-wife Beverly, gave birth to my youngest, Rob. My two daughters were born Lynn in ’56 and Kim in ‘58. The three of them have given me eight wonderful grand kids. Sadly, my ex and I divorced in 1979 and I was a wild bachelor for seventeen years romping around town with my brother Gordon, (also divorced), for the first eight years when he passed at age forty-seven. We were really close and I miss him very much to this day.

Worked in sales for over forty years, selling retail hardware and then wholesale plumbing , roofing and other building materials. I believe I was born again as I asked the Lord for forgiveness and decided then and there that would go and do whatever and wherever He would lead me. Broke my left leg while hanging a sign for vacation bible school at church just two weeks after I was appointed property chairman, (fancy for janitor), and was laid up for over a year. During this time I spent a lot time reading the Bible and learning to appreciate me and to really find myself.
Met my present wife, Pauline of all places at the Bootlegger Bar and Grill. She was a very classy looking lady. My friend and I had stopped for picture of beer, it was a kind of slow night and wasn’t very many in the bar and Jon and I was sitting at the bar when Pauline walked in by herself. Me being a shy guy would have just sat there, but Jon went up to her and asked if she like to meet his friend, me, and share our pitcher. She came over and we talked and we talked, and I followed her home. We sat in the car for three hours just talking, we had so much in common. We dated for five years and then married on June 30th 2001. Pauline, being an ex-RN is very caring person, just like Florence Nightingale, a real angel from God.
Just last week she took an overnight assignment to watch over an eighty year, eighty pound old man on oxygen with variety of illnesses. She is the one that convinced me to take a job with MTA in Flint. This turned out to be a very interesting experience, as I meet a lot of different people from all walks of life and able to assist them in transport them to their various destinations with-in the county. Elderly to their doctors and dialysis, physically , visually and mentally challenged individuals to their day-care programs, children including little four year-olds to and from school. After awhile it was like family seeing the same faces on nearly a daily basis.

Starting dabbling with the internet about nine years ago. My first website was Ramp Solutions of Michigan selling pickup truck ramps of various types. I held a sixth place position on the search engines and business was great, I was shipping the Gatorramp all over the country. But I have to take down my site because of legal problems. I still have a few in my garage if anyone is interested. I then started emallconnector.com which later became shoppingamerica.us. Although I sold quite a few products including SelectComfort beds, satellelite dishes, camping equipment, shoes, textiles and clothing I was never able to get a good ranking again. Since then I became involved in website promotion and advertising, this seems to be what everyone is looking for today. Everyone needs a good source of quality targeted leads and help in gaining success in their own businesses.
Joined the AdlandPro Community back in 2004 but at the time I was so involved with other programs that I didn’t take the time to properly research all the great features, it seemed so complicated and I just didn‘t have the time. Now that I’m retired at the end of last year and doing this full-time, I realize what an awesome program this really is, And by getting more involved I have met some very beautiful people around the world. Wow! Is that awesome or what!!
Today I am working to help others get the help that I wished I had when I was just starting out. I have put shopping America.us on the back burner, so to speak, as it is basically an automatic system.

Here are some of the programs that I am promoting:
