ANECDOTES & EXAMPLES:
You may have had your
seminar, webinar, or "client appreciation" idea
for a while now. Have you written it down?
Is there a market for it? Which centers of influence may co-market
the seminar/webinar with you? Any co-authors? Who could lend support with endorsements;
can they speak? And, what is your seminar idea again?
Let's start there.
BTW: We'll also make sure
your seminar content plays safely within your codes of
ethics and ease passage through compliance
officers.
Your seminar content may be brilliant; but it's got 3 jobs to do:
1) We have to develop a 1-liner so folks want to come/listen,
2) We have to develop the right bullet points and diagrams so they see your bigger picture,
3) We have to develop your closing scripts. While they can't engage you that evening, there are other marketing buy-ins we want.
Do your seminar. We can help you with the video end. Nowadays, video production is meant to be light, simple, and "full-screen" quality. All the equipment is portable, and Internet ready. Remember to turn your mic on when you're up there!
We should register your participants on-line. Confirm their attendance by e-mail, text message, and/or by phone.
We can help you or your staff to meet & greet them most productively. We can you to get them seated; pass out materials; manage Q&A time. Then, collect seminar feedback forms.
Would you like us to help you record some video testimonials? We can even help you manage "back-of-the-room" sales of books, workbooks, videos, audios, etc.
VIDEO WEBINARS, SEMINARS, & SHOWS
Sure you need tradeshow
displays & handouts, but
your greatest marketing
strength is you... your
expertise and your
personality. Live, at a
tradeshow (or a seminar
you create). Then
you can video record
this for future use. You're
an author; add a price
tag. Or give
away special copies, to
special
colleagues.
With broadband access,
you can stream this
video live or archived.
Practice marketing your
personal brand, within
ethics.
