Hello again, and welcome to this weeks
letter.
I want to thank everyone who has taken
advantage of my "renovation sale" so far. With
the exception of one person (who decided the
anonymity of email allowed him to be abusive
about it) the comments I've received have been
positive. Thank you, honestly.
In case you're wondering, the sale is still
on. I've even added a few new items to the list
of products on offer.
The first is a product that was released just
this week. Titled "How To Create Profit-Pulling
Toolbars for Free", it is another collection of
videos by Louis Allport. As the name suggests,
it will show you how create your own web browser
toolbars (like the Google or Alexa toolbar).
These toolbars can be used to promote your own
web sites or affiliate links.
It's listed on the subscriber-only discount
page at http://www.achievenetprofits.com/special/
The new items for the renovation sale are
offers on "Zoom to Super Success", and the
software "Easy Site Magic" (buy either of them,
and you can choose five extra bonuses of your
own choice from the list on the page). I am also
offering resale rights to "Zoom to Super
Success" (so you can sell the product yourself
and keep all the profits).

sale by visiting http://www.achievenetprofits.com/special/reno.shtml

I've got two interview snippets again this
week, both coming from Kennon Fort. Kennon
became known a while ago as something of an
expert on running teleseminars, putting on a
number of successful teleseminars (with big
names). Given his experience, I decided to
interview him on what it took to put together a
successful teleseminar.
On a side note, teleseminars are a great way
to create your first product. You don't need to
be an expert on a subject (that's what the
people you have speaking on the call are), you
can have people pay to be on the call (which
covers the cost of the line, recording and
transcript), and once you've got the recording
and a transcript of the call you've got a
product to sell!
The first snippet from the interview deals
with what you need to look for when you are
looking for a company to host your teleseminar
(there are a lot of options out there). The
second snippet covers a few common mistakes that
people make when they run a teleseminar.
Snippet #1
My observation of the industry up to this
point has been that there doesn't seem to be
a whole lot of variability when it comes to
the features offered by conferencing
companies. There is, however, all kinds of
pricing out there. Some services you can get
for free with a slight degree of less
functionality (which could be crucial to the
success of your conference calls).
One thing I would advise for anyone
serious about doing teleseminars is that they
make sure they get a conference line where
THEY will be able to mute out the listeners.
That way, only the hosts can be heard by the
audience...simply put, you cannot count on
your callers to cooperate with your
instructions to mute themselves. Most free
services available do not allow users to have
this crucial function.
One other valuable piece of advice is that
in most cases you'll want to avoid conference
services where you must pay per user per
minute on the call. These charges add up
quickly and unless your call is very small,
you're much better off economically to get a
24/7 conference service that allows you much
more flexibility and capability.
Snippet #2
Well, one of the most common mistakes for
teleseminar hosts to make is to give their
co-hosts and/or participants the wrong access
number or passcode. This is something that
can be easily avoided by carefully checking
and double-checking your email notices you
send out.
Another common mistake teleseminar hosts
make is simply failing to connect with their
audience. There are two simple things that
every call lasting over 30 minutes must have.
Number one, take breaks to open up the
conference line to make sure the audience is
still alert and awake. And number two, have a
break at every 40-minute interval for
listeners to make a trip to the bathroom.
It's very similar to being at a LIVE seminar.
As the saying goes, "What the butt cannot
endure, the mind cannot absorb!"
-- Kennon Fort, http://www.TeleseminarOnTeleseminars.com/
With those tips, I hope you're running your
first teleseminar in no time!
Well, that's it for me this week. If you get
a chance, I'd really appreciate it if you could
check out my "Renovation Sale" at http://www.achievenetprofits.com/special/reno.shtml
Till next time.
Cheers,
Jason
