Volumes have been written and spoken about producing teleseminars. There are however, just eight basic areas that must be addressed for even the most elementary teleseminar to succeed.
Master the eight, bask in the glow.
1) Once you decide to produce a teleseminar and have settled on the topic (one for which you are sure there is a need) you create the master autorepsonder. It collects the names of those who want to attend and sends them messages on your schedule. It might be a good idea to set up a shopping cart that can take credit cards, too, if you want to sell anything, now or in the future.
2) Next, you must create a squeeze page that will convert lookers to attendees. This page is where they land when they follow up on a hot tip in an email or because of advice from a friend. The page must squeeze the name and email address from your prospect. Creating a squeeze page is not as troublesome as you might imagine. You can find lots of help out there, much of it, free.
3) In the same creative mode, you should plan a "thank you for signing up" page that does more than just sit there. How about a sales pitch or a redirect to a selling page for something entirely different? Creating a web page is as easy as making a document in your word processor. Many web editors work and act like a word processors. There are several good ones available for free.
4) Next, create the messages your autoresponder will send to those who got "squeezed". Thanks for signing up, here's the number etc. 5 should do it, 7 even better. Have them written and ready to schedule.
5) Outline your thoughts for what you want to impart. Don't write a script, but make a very thorough outline with 6 to 7 main headings and sub points. Be able to make thoughtful sentences from the points in your outline
6) Choreograph the show. When you have 'em on the phone and you tell 'em good stuff, plan when and what you say about how they can spend money to get even more good stuff from you. Have every mention planned right up to your big pitch at the end.
7) Carefully craft the many emails you will send after the TeleSeminar with all your promised somethings and pitch reminders. Maybe even offer something unexpected, but related, free.
8) Plan follow up for the days and weeks after the event. You had 'em, now work to keep 'em.
Like any basic plan, or first edition of software, time and improvements will make it bigger, better and full of bells and whistles. Do your first one in simple mode and expand when you are comfortable.
A winning TeleSeminar is more than just picking up the phone.
