I know that many of the ADD Coaches who attended the ACO Conference began blogging right after the the conference. For those who haven't started blogging yet or want to learn more about Blogging, Andy Wibbels is offering Easy Bake Weblogs which begins this week. This also the last time Andy will be offering Easy Bake Weblogs. If you can't make the live classes recordings of Easy Bake Weblogs are provided.

The $7 Secret

The other day I stumbled upon The $7 Secret which is a 30 page E-Book. As an ADD Coach myself who has been successful selling lower cost information products The $7 Secret really caught my interest and I purchased it!

I have to say that am really impressed with $7 Secrets. It's explains the concept very well and why it works. It also introduces a new concept in affiliate programs. Reading $7 Secrets has given me that push I needed to begin creating additonial ADD Coaching Products!

Autism in Children

We know that A.D.D. occurs in 3% to 5% of school-age children and about 4% of adults but we don't know much about the rates of autism in children.  Up to 60 percent of children with A.D.D. grow up to be adults who still have A.D.D. and experts estimate that more than eight million grown-ups in the United States have the disorder.

The first large study of autism rates among U.S. children showed about one in 150 have the disorder, a higher rate than previous estimates.  The new data on autism spectrum disorders is from the Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and covered 14 states that found 6.6 children per 1,000 have an autism disorder...ranging from 3.3 per 1,000 in Alabama (a lower estimate because the researchers didn't have access to special-education records in Alabama) to 10.6 per 1,000 in New Jersey.
