Can You Avoid These 10 Common Problems That Occur During Teleseminars?

June 17th, 2010

When you are giving a teleseminar, a lot of things can go wrong.  It doesn’t mean that you are doing a bad job, many things that go wrong are out of your control, so you just take them as they come.  If you know about these things before hand, you can do something about it when it occurs.  In this article, the author discusses some of the things that can go wrong in a Teleseminar.  Read on for these issues, so you can have some contingency plans to limit any possible losses.

So you’ve decided to host a teleseminar. That’s great!

Before you host your event it’s a good idea to take a deeper look into what can go wrong and how to handle it. There are many issues you can have at a teleseminar that range from technical details to problem attendees to self-imposed problems.

Here are 10 common problems that occur during teleseminars and how to quickly handle them.

1. Your conference call in line isn’t working – Let’s just tackle one of the most difficult issues first. From time to time the conference call lines have down time, glitches or some unknown issue. The first thing to do is find out as much information as you can to see if only one person or multiple people are having a problem. Then work quickly to resolve it. You may need to quickly switch lines, call customer service or host the call at another time.

2. Background noise – A very common problem on teleseminars is that guests call in with background noise. This is very distracting to the speaker and listeners. A good solution to this is to use the conference call lines mute button to mute out the entire line while speaking and then open it up again when you have discussion or questions.

3. Latecomers – Depending on how casual or formal your call is latercomers may or may not disrupt your call. The best thing to do here is again to mute out the line so late guests can’t interrupt and ask to be caught up.

4. Distractions – If you work from home distractions are everywhere. The baby might wake up, the phone might ring, there might be a knock at the door. Make sure to prepare for all possible distractions.

5. Conference recording doesn’t work – I’ve been hosting my own events sometimes when the conference recording doesn’t work. The best way to fix this and avoid having to re-record your entire event is to have a back up recording. If you use a free conference call line to create your teleseminar you will possibly have a free recording available with the service. I would use that as well as a backup program like Audio Acrobat.

6. Speaker doesn’t show – Make sure you confirm with your speakers at least one week before (if you scheduled well in advance) as well as a few hours before the call. Don’t let it slip their mind!

7. Guests don’t show – What if you schedule a teleseminar and you get sign ups but no one actually shows up. If you have promised to get a recording out to your guests do the call anyway as if people were there. No matter what you’ll now have a valuable recording to get out to your target market.

8. Tired voice – If you will be talking for a while you may start to notice your voice getting tired and your through getting dry. Avoid this by having a glass of water on your desk to sip in between talking.

9. Guest interruptions – You may have guests who are overly excited about your topic or genuinely disagree with you and fee they must voice their opinion. If it is time for conversations or questions then by all means allow it but if you are on a schedule and need to move on just reply quickly and tell them you must move on out of respect for all the guests so you can get all the information covered.

10. Forgetting what you’re talking about – Everyone gets nervous from time to time but what you don’t want to do is go completely off track. The best way to have a completely natural flow to your teleseminar is to be prepared. Know what you want to talk about and create point form notes to cover as you go.

There you have 10 common problems with teleseminars. Don’t let these issues scare you away! Now you’ll be even more prepared and ready to tackle any issue that comes up before anyone even notices it’s happened.

Now I’d like to invite you to come learn the ins and outs of setting up your own teleseminar. If you love to connect with people and talk with your potential customers then hosting teleseminars will be a perfect match for you.

Teleseminar Secrets – How to Hold Great Teleseminars Even If Everyone Bails

June 12th, 2010

The thing with holding teleseminars, is that you never really know until the day of the teleseminar,  just how many people will be there.  What if you don’t have any early signups on the day of the teleseminar, and then on the day of the teleseminar no one shows up?  What do you do?  How can you still have a powerful teleseminar and why would you want to continue with the show even if you are the only one there?  Read on for more as this article will tell you.

Teleseminars are a great way to connect with an audience. But what do you do if no one takes you up on your invitation? Read on for a sneaky solution.

Okay, so you think you need people on the other side of the line when you have a teleseminar. Sure, that would be great, but what do you do if no one shows up? Do you have to reschedule your teleseminar.

Absolutely not. You definitely don’t want to fess up and say no one was there and that’s why you want to reschedule.

Instead, relax!

First of all, not everyone actually opens the lines to let the other people on the line talk. All you have to do is pretend you’re simply not opening the lines, and talk away at your imaginary audience.

You can also make up questions… Imagine you have some specific regulars, and create questions for them. Then pretend they came in via the typed interface in Instant Teleseminar. “Ah, Sally from Newport News has a question about…”

Besides, you can set up teleseminars anytime you like, and just talk away. Those can be useful in a number of ways:

1) You can create podcast products

2) You can create audio ebooks by reading ebooks, yours or PLR ebooks

3) You can have your audios transcribed and turned into articles and ebooks

4) You can give them away

5) You can use them as bonuses and make your products more valuable.

4) And more…

Seriously, no one will care whether there was anyone on the other side if the information is great. In fact, some people I know actually re-record their teleseminar if they felt the original version didn’t sound good.

But here’s something you need to watch out for.

I’m using instant teleseminar, and it’s a piece of cake to record your own teleseminar anytime you want, with or without an audience.

But there are other teleseminar companies that actually play music until the second person comes on. So you really have to watch out.

If you’re on there talking and your listeners hang up on you, the music will start! This is to be avoided.

So what can you do? Dial in from a second phone and let it just sit there during your teleseminar.

You can do that as a precaution, to keep the music from starting in case everyone hangs up. That way, you won’t have to re-do the teleseminar.

At the same time, if you want to create an audio product, you also need to make the music stop. So just call in from that other line, and you’ll be good to go.

Teleseminar Versus Webinar? Which Is Your Most Profitable Teaching Format

June 7th, 2010

Teleseminars and webinars are both powerful methods of teaching or training.  Each one has their own benefits, or pluses and minuses.  When determining which feature to go for, you will need to ask yourself what are your main goals, what you want to achieve, and what information you need to get across, as well as your audience.  This article gives you the difference between working with a teleseminar and a webinar to do your training.

“Aren’t teleseminars being superseded by webinars?”

This is a reasonable question. A webinar, in case you’re not sure, is a seminar that people listen to and watch on the web, via their computer, while a teleseminar involves listening only, via the telephone or computer.

Webinars have numerous disadvantages in comparison to teleseminars:

* Increased preparation time. For a webinar, you need to prepare visuals as well as what you’ll say. Generally there is a Powerpoint-style accompaniment to the talking that must be organized, written and polished ahead of time. If you use photographs or other graphics instead of bulleted summaries of your points, those still must be prepared. The recommended guideline is about one slide per one minute of presentation. That means 60 slides are needed for a one-hour webinar, or a bit fewer if you’re planning a question-and-answer session at the end. For me, webinars take five to ten times as much preparation time as teleseminars.

* Added costs. Webinars require a reliable hosting service that you need to pay for. Some high-quality teleseminar vendors, however, are free.

* Technology barriers. People who have dialup service or Satellite Internet usually cannot participate in webinars. Some corporate folks can’t join a webinar because of their company firewall. And serious technical glitches are multiple times more common with webinars than teleseminars.

* Computer dependency. Participants must be at a computer to access a webinar. If you expect people to participate from the office, this is not a problem. If you target a consumer audience, webinars are less of a fit. Unless you convert a completed webinar to an audio-only presentation, a recorded webinar likewise can’t be accessed in the car or while running or walking as a teleseminar can.

* Bigger learning curve. The last two times I participated in webinar-based conferences, I was required to take part in a one-hour training session first, so I would understand how to operate the controls while presenting. For me, having to simultaneously think about moving the slides and giving my talk makes a webinar much more stressful than a teleseminar. I’m still tense giving a webinar, even after more than a dozen times. The interface is so much simpler for running a teleseminar that only a short run-through is needed, if that, for a first-timer to feel relaxed while presenting.

Webinars do have some advantages over teleseminars:

* Visuals. For teaching how to do something, or for keeping the audience engaged in more than one perceptual channel, webinars rule.

* Higher tech. As the question implied, webinars appear more “advanced” than teleseminars. In some markets this is a significant plus.

* Bells and whistles. One webinar I led last year incorporated real-time polling of the audience. It was very cool to be able to ask a question and get participants’ instant answers. That’s not available with most teleseminar systems.

To make the right decision between these two modes of presentation, think about the subject matter you are teaching, the expectations of your audience, their technology setup, whether it’s a work or non-work presentation, your budget and your own comfort level with the two types of technology.

Good luck with your teaching program!

Teleseminar Tips – Needed Equipment for Teleseminars

May 31st, 2010

If you want to run a successful teleseminar, you will need some equipment that is considered standard.  Then there is equipment that will just enhance your teleseminar experience.  For most teleseminar hosts who are serious about their teleseminars, they usually use enough equipment that will allow them to be able to monetize the teleseminar in a number of different ways.  In this article, you will see the list of required and recommend equipment.  Read on for more!

A list of teleseminar services and equipment:

Teleseminars are an innovative way to get massive amounts of people on the telephone line and give a mini-seminar. The equipment needed for teleseminars are critical to make it successful. The following is a list of basic equipment to get started:

  • Telephone – This sounds simple enough. The best is to have a corded land line telephone to connect to the wall. Uniden and Motorola have great corded telephones that provide quality sound. You can use a cordless phone or cell phone, but the reception may not be the best.
  • Bridge Line – A bridge line is a telephone line that holds different amounts of people. It bridges the speaker and the participants together. There is a wide variety of bridge lines out there. You can use a simple bridge line provided by InstantTeleseminar.com or rent a bridge line through companies such as BlackandWhite.com or rentabridge.com. These companies have many qualities lines from small to large groups.

Optional Equipment:

  • Headset – A headset will keep your hands free during the call. You will not have to hold the phone to your ear. Just like the phone, a corded headset such as GN Netcom is better since it does not create the static or poor quality such as a cordless headset.
  • Recording Equipment – A quality microphone is not necessary. You can use a computer microphone and headset for your recording. You will get better quality with a studio microphone though such as Audio Technica microphone.
  • Recording Software – Audacity is a great software that is free for recording your teleseminars. You can upgrade to Sony Soundforge for more features if needed. If you are using a MAC computer, Garage Band is included in most of the MAC models. All the softwares are easy to learn through the help menu.

With simple and easy equipment, you can create quality teleseminars instantly.

Teleseminar Pricing – Two Strategic Pricing Models

May 24th, 2010

Teleseminars can be used for a number of different things from marketing to lead generation, to generating revenue.  Each use requires a different strategy and pricing model.  Some teleseminars can be high ticket events and others are just enough to cover the costs.  Read on for more on when to use which model.

“Should I charge more for those who attend my live seminar than those who buy the recording?”

The answer depends on your primary purpose for presenting teleseminars. Here are two pricing models I strongly recommend, each for a different situation.

Pricing Model #1 works well when you are publicizing your seminar beyond your own list, where you hope to entice new people to opt-in so you can sell them on a certain product, service or paid event.

Offer the live teleseminar at no charge, with a nominal charge (such as $20) for the MP3 or CD recording. This encourages those who can to attend the live session, while it also gives you access to those who cannot attend. You need the live attendees so you have informational exchanges during the seminar, avoiding the monotony of a lecture.

People exposed to your knowledge and personality for an entire hour, either on the phone or on their audio player, then feel they know you and become receptive to a related follow-up offer.

I have used this model successfully numerous times as a lead generator for my copywriting mentoring program. The $20 charge for the recording usually brought in a few hundred dollars, and it may have also increased the perceived value of the live session for those who called in at no charge.

Colleagues of mine successfully use this model for a teleconference with numerous sessions or a longish series of related sessions. Attendance at the live calls costs nothing, but you can buy recordings of all the sessions for a fee like $97. As with the single-session arrangement, the free option generates good will among attendees while the paid option generates income that makes the effort financially worthwhile.

Use Pricing Model #2 when you have something new and valuable for those who have already opted in to your list.

Here, charge a single price for your content (such as $37 or $49) whether people attend live or listen to the recording. For the one price, your buyers get both access to the live session and the recording.

In this case, buyers are not in “get to know you” mode but rather are primed to learn. Your session provides a substantive educational event on a specialized topic. You go into your subject matter in more depth than you would with Pricing Model #1.

I used Model #2 in November 2009 when I interviewed a business attorney on what marketers should do about new Federal Trade Commission regulations that were about to go into effect the next month. This was information some people on my list were strongly motivated to learn about.

When I run a multi-session teleseminar course, I use this model as well, emphasizing to registrants that it doesn’t matter whether or not they can fit the live sessions into their schedule. Within a day after each class, they receive the download address for its audio, and at the conclusion of the course, they receive all the recordings bound in a CD album they can keep on their shelf for future reference. This arrangement raises the perceived value of the course while eliminating objections based on scheduling or time available.
