How to Create Community and Increase Your Teleseminar Profit © 2006 Julie Jordan Scott The Power of Teleconferences and Teleseminars is giving rise to more and more and more entrepreneurs jumping on the bandwagon, offering a wide variety of educational options in every topic you might imagine. What continues to surprise and perplex me is how many people never really tune into the fact that Teleseminars are not ONLY a way to make substantial money - which yes, they are - they are also a way to have a significant and positive impact on the world through the work that they do. There are simple ways to begin that special awakening. I am speaking of the the soul-to-soul unfolding that invites the participants in the teleseminar to really live differently as a result of your message. The bottom line is this: in order to have the greatest impace on your participants, the leader must create a passionate, trust-based community. This strategy, to create community, is simple and will make a huge difference in repeat participants (and repeat tuitions paid) in your teleseminars and teleclasses. Here are five simple ways to begin to fine tune your next seminars so that you - and the world - can reap positive rewards. 1. Authentically treasure each person who participates in your Teleseminar. Don't be phony with it - and if you are not up to authentically treasuring each participant, at least aim for liking and appreciating them. How do you show this? By speaking their name, the sweetest sound to every person's ear. 2. Welcome each person as they arrive - or at least continue to issue a warm, true welcome to the group if there are more than 20 or so people on the line with you. People want to know you are glad they are there - actively interested in their presence. Be excited - this is YOUR teleseminar, YOUR time to shine and without THEM, you wouldn't be here! 3. Thank each person for his or her contribution - and speaking of contribution - be sure you make space for people to speak up and share their insights. Sometimes their insights may a significant factor in the session. Also - if one person dominates in contribution, ask for input and add "Lets hear from someone who hasn't spoken yet today." 4. Remember the long running television comedy "Cheers"? Do you remember the theme song? Entrepreneurs the world over could learn a thing or two about creating community from that simple song: "You want to be where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came." Call your participants by name - and re-state their name during the session. 5. Use examples from the students themselves and weave those examples right into the Teleseminar. It will point right back to point #1, feeling treasured, and point #4 - the Cheers tip. This will require you be alert, aware and ready to update your information "improv" style. This is what makes a Teleseminar different than an audio program - it is LIVE, not canned. You are not a "talking head" you are a facilitator of growth and discovery. Now - here is your challenge. The best way to be successful in creating community in your next Teleseminar is to begin to practice as soon as possible. Take one tip at a time and weave it into your Seminar. watch what happens. And then take the next tip and the next. Your Teleseminars will become even more profitable, more fun and filled with like minded, like souled and spirited folks who will refer their friends as well. = + = + = + = + = + Julie Jordan Scott has been leading powerful, life changing teleseminars since 1999.
