The X-10 Effect:  How To Boost Your Income x10 With One Simple Secret

Regular readers of this blog or my newsletter will no doubt remember me mentioning the X-10 Effect seminar which was held in Sydney, Australia, recently. This seminar was so successful and widely requested by people around the country … so it’s now going national (Australia).

If you’re a business owner who would like to know how to multiply your steven-essa-smlresults x10 then you should get yourself along to this one-day workshop being run by Steven Essa.

I have a lot of respect and admiration for Steven and know that the stuff he’s teaching can make a huge difference to business owners. This workshop shows how the simple use of webinars can multiply your income by 10. Steven shares plenty of content and tips for making sure you get the best results for your guests as well as your business.

Visit X-10 Effect for full details and to register.

Tickets are only $47 for two people (well, $47 each but you get to bring a friend for nothing) and ALL TICKET PROCEEDS are going to the Heart Foundation in support of the 50K in 50 Days Challenge.

I’ll be at the Gold Coast event, so if you go to that one make sure you say hello to me.

Earlier this year I began using the Thesis theme for WordPress. Until then I’d been using free WP themes and they were good.

However I couldn’t find a theme that had the exact layout I was after and so ended up installing a fairly generic one… and then pulling it to pieces and customising it. To do this I had to learn CSS coding and spent hours upon hours upon hours getting it ‘okay’. In the end, there were still a few bits and pieces that just wouldn’t come together like I’d hoped.

Then I saw the light… I discovered Thesis.

The Thesis theme is not free but it’s quite affordable. The thing I love the most is just how quick and easy it is to customise, without having to know anything about CSS.

You simply choose – in most cases via a simple drop-down menu – whether you want a 1, 2 or 3 column site, what order you want those columns in, what font you want for the headline and main content text and so on. I also like that it has SEO friendly fields built in automatically so there’s no need to install and SEO plug-in.

Granted it still has its limitations, but in all honesty this is by far the best theme I’ve found and I absolutely love it. I’m sure I could overcome those limitations by editing the CSS stylesheet if I really wanted to, but personally, I don’t feel it’s necessary.

The Thesis theme is produced by DIY Themes – you can visit DIY Themes to watch a quick video demonstrating just how simple it is to customise your site.

Tom and Janna at Inspired Health Strategies have been working hard preparing for the 50 day challenge, where they aim to raise $50,000 in 50 days for the Heart Foundation’s 50th birthday. The campaign will run from 1 June 2009 until 19 July 2009.

I believe the donation area is being managed directly by the Heart Foundation and will be set up before 1 June. Tom and Janna are putting their heart and soul into this project and I encourage anyone who’s able to get behind them.

And someone who’s behind this cause 100% is Steven Essa who you may recall reading about here last week. Steven is running the X-10 Effect Workshop in Sydney on 30th May 2009. To contribute to the 50k in 50 Days Challenge, Steven has kindly offered to donate ALL PROCEEDS from this workshop to the Challenge! Plus, he’s giving away a holiday as an incentive to book – all attendees will go into a draw to win two-night’s accommodation for two people at the Pacific Blue Resort, Nelson Bay.

Have a look at this to find out more about Steven’s generous offer for X-10 Effect attendees or visit the 50k In 50 Days Challenge site to find out more about how you can help.

Donna-Marie with Sean Roach, WIS Gold Coast 2009 Last week I was fortunate enough to be able to spend a few days on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, at World Internet Summit.

This event, founded by Brett McFall and Tom Hua, is held in locations all around the world and brings together the best of the best Internet Marketers.

I would love to summarise the entire 4-day event for you but there was just too much happening. Excellent information, software and tips were shared by online business experts such as Sean Roach (pictured with me here), Matt Bacak, Tom Hua, Matt and Amanda Clarkson, James Schramko, Nikhil Parekh, Barnaby De Palma, Raymond Aaron, Dr Mike and Koz, Debra Thompson Roedl, Scott Letourneau and my personal mentor, Brett McFall.

You gain so much from these sessions – from developing a successful mindset to selling on eBay, market research, product creation, and lots more. However I have to admit, one of the best parts is simply being there, feeling the motivation pumping through the room each day and mixing with 600+ inspired, enthusiastic and positive people.

The next WIS will be in Auckland, New Zealand, from July 23rd to 26th. Registrations are being taken now and if it’s anything like the Australian event tickets will sell out early.

I’ll be at World Internet Summit in New Zealand 2009… will you?
