CASE STUDY: DBV.com.au
David from OneLifeNoFear.com, a blogger and avid entrepreneur interviewed me and asked me all about my business and how I outsourced DBV.com.au, which is my dragonboating business.
He asks me how I’m able to work just 2 hours a day generating a yearly six figure income using the Mass Outsource strategy. In the interview David also asks me what led me to outsource my dragonboat business and the struggles I faced when I first tried. It was quite embarrassing at first as you will soon hear.

I interviewed Alvin so I could find out how he achieved huge success with blogging. What I like about Alvin is how he focuses on the quality of his leads, rather than having thousands of leads that don’t make him any money. This is one of his successful strategies that you will learn in this interview.

She provides excellent tips on ecommerce and is an expert media analyst who knows how to engage readers through social media.

Furthermore, Get Elastic is also recognized by the Wall Street Journal as one of 15 entrepreneur blogs worth reading and ranks on the AdAge Power 150.

Not only does she have a great readership, Linda is a true expert using her blog to market through social media networks.
Our Internet Secrets: How To Create Membership Sites
June 16, 2009 by Tyrone
On Friday I attended Andrew and Daryl Grant’s 4 day workshop in Sydney called Our Internet Secrets. I was very fortunate to attend this event and have to thank Yaro Starak from Entrepreneur’s Journey again for giving me 1 out of the 20 tickets. This course is normally $1,995.00, so I was very grateful to attend as a guest. Over the 4 days there were a lot of excellent speakers on top of having Andrew and Daryl speak. All of the speakers that presented is part of the Our Internet Secrets faculty group and if you are a member of this program you get access to them. Some of the speakers were: Yaro Starak, Bret Thomson, Darren Stephens, Greg Cassar, Paul Blackburn and Janet Beckers.
Each of them brought different their unique expertise and shared with the audience on how they created and achieved great success with their Internet Businesses. I was particularly interested to learn about how Andrew and Daryl Grant set up a very successful multi-million dollar business using their eBook and membership site strategies. These were just a couple of components that were part of their game plan. For example a goal they achieved were:
- Having a membership site with 1,000 members paying $49 a month over 12 months (Income of $588,000 a year)
- Selling 20 Internet Business packs per month at seminars for $3,000 each over 12 months (Income of $600,000 a year)
These were two of the strategies that intrigued me the most and it did make sense that it was possible to make a million dollars a year. You might be wondering how did they do this? Well, I am going to share with you the first goal they accomplished.
Creating A Membership Site
As Andrew and Daryl points out, they have a membership site that could be created and launched within 3 days. For me that is unheard of because I would be thinking where do you get the content so fast? This got me really excited and I wanted to learn how they did it! Before you could start creating a membership site you need to understand what is currently available in the market and how to make yours different, so you will stand out. Well, lets explore what are some of the problems most membership sites have in common:
- Can take 6 months or more to set up before it makes any money.
- Members stay an average of only 2-3 months, so you don’t get a recurring income
- Most membership site software is designed by and for people with a US company and bank account.
- Can be expensive to set up, depending on the software you use.

It has become a six figure income business and a good case study everyone should learn from. I also ask Gideon what is his secret in establishing joint ventures with experts in any market and he shares this in the interview.
