Today was a very early day, but I got to talk about “How to Build More Profit into Your Business” with about 125 viewers. WordSesh started at 00:00 UTC, which was 8pm here on the East Coast. My slot was 10:00 UTC, so I was up at 4am for my 6:00 time. The live talk went faster than my practice session yesterday, so I may edit what I did yesterday and post it in place of this live recording later.

I was one of those viewers. Well, at least I am now on youtube 🙂 Very good presentation. Puts clarity on alot of really hard stuff to learn.
