For all other presenters, we have good news!  We have developed a financial plan for those who need assistance to pay for registration.  As you may know, The Sedona Temple and International School of Temple Arts (ISTA) are non-profit organizations who rely upon donations and conference income to produce these and other educational events.  Any income after expenses is reinvested into developing and supporting our programs to raise consciousness across the globe.

We now offer affiliate links that pays you 10% for any sales generated through your unique link.  We have had speakers attract anywhere from 3-50 attendees, and if you estimate your commission at $35-45 per sale, it could be hundreds coming back to you.**  This is an experiment to open the doors of referral-based business in exchange for fees.  Let us know how it feels to you. In some cases we can also provide the opportunity to do workshops surrounding the conference on a profit share basis.  Inquire for details.

The daytime programming of the Conference will be interesting, inspiring, and energizing...... while the evenings will be loads of sweet, sensual fun, networking, and socializing.

Let us know how we can help you promote to your lists.  Don’t forget to register as a presenter to confirm your spot and topic.
Love and Bliss,
ISTA - International School of Temple Arts
