“Chunks of 30“

We have a new dog in the house. My daughter, Ashley, is getting married in a week and thinking that planning for a wedding wasn’t enough on her plate …she decided to get a dog from the animal shelter! So, we have a new dog living with us until Ashley gets married, back from the honey moon and into her new apartment with her new husband and new dog.

Actually, I’m not as grumpy as I sound. I’m enjoying the new dog too, but the animal shelter told us the dog was potty trained. Yeah right. And pennies fall from the sky when you start an online business.

So we are in the process of potty training the dog…in 30 minute chunks. To prevent accidents in the house and to condition the dog to use the front yard instead of the foyer, I have set an egg timer to remind me to take the dog outside every 30 minutes. Then when she is “successful”, I make a BIG DEAL about it and start the timer again.

And guess what, this works for people as well.

I haven’t had an accident in the house for a while now, but I tend to “drift” when I’m on the computer. Recently, I’ve been using the egg timer to help me be more productive. For example, I’ve given myself 30 minutes to look at the articles I’ve written before, come up with a topic and write this article.

It may not sound like a huge success, but given my personality, I may have drawn this task out to an hour or so. Now, I have a goal and a deadline and I have done the whole thing in 17 minutes. Wow, now I can send those emails to potential joint venture partners that I‘ve been putting off for weeks!

So, start with a list and assign a time deadline to each task (in minutes). When the timer rings, STOP what you’re doing even if you aren’t finished. Return to the same task tomorrow with a time deadline. You will start training yourself to work faster and your productivity will shoot through the roof!

Warmly,

Stephen Beck

I have a ways to go [with her product] but almost every other day an order comes in.

I offered many bonuses at the start and then moved it right to full price of $37 – still sells.

Webinar Planning For Those Who Are New to Webinars

by Stephen Beck

If you were given the opportunity of planning and using webinars for your business, what would keep you from doing so? Webinars are useful tools because you can use them to teach people many things that they would not have the time to learn themselves. Webinar planning is a flexible tool that allows you to teach people around the world from the comfort of your home. You may even learn things from other people who are scattered worldwide without having to travel millions of miles to make this possible.

Many people, however, hesitate to take the necessary steps for hosting webinars. They deny themselves the opportunity of making money online because they assume one of the following objections is true:

1) The costs that are attached to planning and conducting webinars are too high. I will not deny that there is an initial investment in creating webinars, including the time that is necessary to learn vital facts and information; however, the overall returns are far greater than the investment. For example, our profits have always fallen between $3000-$5000 when we planned one if we have more than 50 people on the webinar. I always ensure that I do not have less than 50 people on my webinars because that means I will be targeting a smaller audience and making less money. Once you have conducted your first webinar, you will be able to see the monetary returns.

2)The efforts that go into planning webinars is only worth it if it involves big-ticket items. This is simply not true. An ebook that sells $29 is excellent way to get started because the initial investment is quite low. A webinar my wife Kerry planned generated $16,000 when she used it for her $37 ebook “Raising Leaders, not Followers.” As you can see, small ticket items are just as effective in bringing in profits as large ticket items.

They also have the added bonus in that they are less of an investment for people. So if you are trying to build a business, you can generate rapport with a product that is less of a financial step for people to take who are not familiar with you. Then you will build a list of customers who trust you and know you have a great product to offer when you offer a larger ticket item.

3) It requires a great degree of technical knowledge. I will not deny that planning and running your webinars requires some level of technical consciousness. However, there is nothing out of the ordinary that you cannot learn. There is a high-demand course that I have available that offers step-by-step instructions about planning webinars. However, if you do not want to learn the content yourself, you can ask someone else to do that part for you. You are free to concentrate on preparing the presentation.

These are the reasons that most skeptics use when discussing webinars. However, if your excuses are not holding out anymore as to why planning webinars is not for you, then it is time to take action. You will be glad you did when you see the results!
