…or at least we will be once the hangovers subside and we all have some time to reflect on what a fantastic couple of days we had at Lee McIntryes Profit Max workshop!

Wondering what the title’s all about?  I guess you had to be there but let me just say Lee’s staff member Mark knows how to fire up the crowd – even when they have killer hangovers!

Over the past few weeks I’ve been testing various methods to grow my Twitter following and I’ve found a load of cool tools that allow me to automate various tasks and make life easier.

At the start of August 09 I had only 45 followers and the time of writing this post, I have 3766…  That’s a lot of potential new leads, traffic and customers – all from only a few minutes work a day!

Now, let me just say, I’m not usually scared of any bugs, whether insect or arachnid, however there have been so many of them jumping out at me or buzzing angrily round my head, that I’ve become a little bit jumpy!

Added to that I’ve been spending a lot of time considering where my internet business is headed and what I need to change in order to become more successful.
