It had to happen sooner or
later. Some quick thinking Internet entrepreneur thought of a way to
harness the power of Telephone Conferencing to make money.
Now, it's taking off
and is a strong, vibrant part of many businesses income. And in a lot of
cases, it's a main source of consistent revenue.
What could be easier.
By hosting your own teleconference, or teleclass, you have the
opportunity to do more in thirty minutes than you could in a month of
advertising your website.
Wouldn't you rather
stay home, pick up the phone, host a short teleclass (that people paid
to attend), and sell some of your products as a direct result?
Many Internet marketers
are using Telephone Conferencing on a monthly basis as the optimal tool
to keep in contact with their regular clients, website visitors, past
customers, and new prospects. Teleconferences give you the opportunity
to establish yourself as an expert on your particular topic like
articles, seminars, newsletters, or word of mouth ever could.
This type of delivery
of information satisfies the need that is so prevelant to the foundation
of an Internet business.
Three Main Benefits of
Hosting Telephone Conference Call
With the momentum that
hosting a Telephone Conference Call is gaining among Internet Marketing
top earners, what good does it do? Why are they so enthusiastic about
hosting a class, seminar, or conference over the telephone? There are
three benefits that make teleconferences more attractive, and
productive, than other means of sales and marketing communication.
You're Only A Phone Call Away
Ease of use and instant
gratification, instead of a luxury, has become a demand. In marketing
your name, product, or service, this key development in the needs of the
consumers or target market must be kept in the forefront of your mind.
Seminars, classes,
workshops, consulting, meetings... they all take time, money, plans, and
travel. It's much easier to be able to sit in your home, or office, and
"attend" a conference on the phone.
Attendees Get A First
Hand Feeling Of "Personality"
One of the things that
I don't like about formal seminars and conferences is the feeling of
"inferiority".
Do you ever feel like
that? When the speaker is elevated above the crowd, and everyone is
listening to what that one person is saying, you feel like you can't
possibly do anything the speaker is talking about. You're not on the
same level. Most people beginning in any type of business feel this way.
With a telephone
conference call everyone is on the same playing field and instead of
feeling inferior, the person attending the conference then feels the
speaker's "personality".
The phone has been a
great way to keep in touch with people over long distances. People feel
so much better when they have talked to a friend or relative. In the
same way, when you host a conference, each individual person "feels"
like they are talking to you, personally, on the phone.
You are answering their
questions, putting aside their fears, telling them they can do it.
You're a friend, not someone who is "much better" than they are.
Telephone Conferences
Create Their Own Income
Of course, it has to
get to money.
The first two benefits
not only create an easy way to stay in touch with customers and ezine
subscribers, and website visitors, and give you direct access to each
"attendee", but they also create a very lucrative stream of income.
Telephone Conferencing,
whether free or on a paid basis (another easy income stream), save
people money, time, and creates trust so that more of your products, or
services, sell.
Plus, the fact that if
you are hosting a paid event, you are making almost pure profit from the
conference. Many people operating on the Internet are now using these
events as a main part of their income. If you host a conference to 200
people at $100 per, you've just made $20,000. Not bad for a thirty
minute to one hour phone call.
Add to that the
opportunity to record your conference, put transcribe it to written form
and sell it as a package, give it away for more publicity for other
products, or use it as an archive.
Everyone Can Do It
Teleconferences
(Telephone Conference Calling) aren't just for the experts. Do you have
an ezine? Do you operate a website? Are you an affiliate of a product?
Do you know how to plant roses? Catch fish? Find great deals in antique
stores? Whatever it is you can do, you can host an event. The limits are
endless.
