Run Your Own Webinar Today

Why don't you run more webinars? They are the best way not just to make a product -- that's not bad -- I've made a membership site in a day using a webinar to generate content -- but webinars get you massive TRAFFIC!

You don't have to spend all this time writing a report that won't even go viral... or record a video that you'll end up spending 25 takes to get it right.

On a webinar, people see your screen, LIVE... and they hear your voice... LIVE. If you want to show a PowerPoint, web page, or piece of software, it's all live.

It's just as easy as talking on the phone and most of your competition is too scared to do it... you aren't.

It's like a teleseminar except there's a video component instead of just audio.

So what are people doing wrong with webinars? Lots of things, and you might not even be realizing it.

One thing I see happening on a lot of free webinars is: they give away ALL their information. There's no reason to even join the program they offer at the end.

You wouldn't give away all your secrets on a sales letter, and you would have to cram so much stuff in there, it would be overwhelming.

A free webinar is just a sales letter. That means you can teach some stuff, you can give people the big picture, you can tell people what they're missing out on or doing wrong... but save your BEST stuff, the how-to, for the inside of your product.

But a webinar is even better than a sales letter. I have one sales letter in particular that converts at 4.05% ... it blends content and the pitch. When I presented the same sales letter information as a webinar, it converted at 19.6%! Crazy, right?

With a webinar, there's trust (they hear your voice). There's urgency (they're told to go right now). And there's much better course corrections than a regular sales letter (you can overcome objections within a few seconds).

When you run your very own webinar, don't give away all the information you know. Explain a problem, partially solve the problem, or explain "the hard way" to solve it... and then sell the quick and easy way.

I know this all sounds good but wouldn't you like to get a step by step explanation on how to do this, exactly? Register below for or 100% free training and figure out how to convert better than ANY sales letter...

The Three P’s of Webinar Marketing

Have you ever heard of the phrase "mind your P's and Q's?" I don't have any Q's for you today, but I've definitely got some P's. In fact, when marketers have a webinar that's missing these three P's, I don't even think you can really call it a live webinar training session.

The three P's are: proof, participation, and polling. And you're definitely going to want to have all three in your training, whether this is a free pitch webinar or a paid training course.

The first P is proof. I have been shoving this one down your throat the last several days. Most people imagine the wrong thing when I say "proof." For most people, proof means things like PayPal screenshots or bank account screenshots.

But here's what webinar proof means: it means when you're showing people your sales letter, focus on testimonials. If you're teaching real estate, show a picture of a house you sold and how much money you made from it. If you're teaching article marketing, show a published article that's listed 10,000 times over on Google.

On a webinar, your actions can be your proof. Teaching graphics? Design a logo for one lucky person in the audience. Teaching hypnotism and self help? Perform a hypnotic induction on your audience. Demonstrate proof.

The second P: Participation. You're live on the call so you might as well "prove" that as well! I wouldn't recommend going as far as unmuting people on the call, but if someone asks a decent question or says something great about you, read it aloud.

I can't stand being on webinars where the presentation is entirely scripted and rehearsed, and no one even reads my question. You shouldn't let questions run the call or distract you, but definitely respond to them when they come in.

And speaking of audience participation, you should poll your audience. You can have a lot of fun with this. I've asked my audience questions such as: "Have you been on a webinar with me before?" "Do you have a membership site?" Or even "which test won?" I would show my audience a split test I ran, have them guess which version of my sales letter won, then I reveal the answer.

The best use of a poll is the "before and after" which combines all three P's into one. Let's say your webinar showed people how to create a logo in 5 minutes. Before you demonstrate it, poll the audience and ask, "Can you make a logo in 5 minutes?" Show your logo formula, and poll the same question a second time. Usually the percentage will increase.

A buddy of mine, Andy Erickson, ran a graphics webinar and did exactly this. At the beginning of the call, he started a poll asking if they could create a logo. Only 25 percent said yes. But then, after showing people how to create a logo, he polled again and 95 percent of the audience said yes!

If that's not proof, I don't know what is. And those are the three P's for putting together a great webinar: proof, participation, and polling.

Good luck on your next webinar. Signup below to find out how to implement all this on your own webinars...
