What we covered with Josh:

  • Webinars grew his own business at first
  • Grow your Business with Webinars
  • They had been generating thousands of leads a month by doing webinars before he launched Webinarli
  • What types of businesses best for using webinars? (Not Kimmy’s type of business, unless she wants to position herself as a coach to other salon owners). Targeting other people within the business world (not the best fit for a retail establishment)
  • Best way to target: combination of Facebook and Linkedin advertising, with a little bit of organic using Linkedin and email. Highly targeted on Google too.
  • Get people to a free webinar landing page for them to sign up. Maybe some bonuses.
  • After webinar, try to follow up with a phone call. This has worked really well.
  • People like to talk to a real person
  • Josh prefers GoToMeeting Webinar system
  • Test webinar products out before going live with your audience so you are comfortable and know they work
  • Google Hangouts have some webinar systems that interconnect with the hangout
  • Webinar University – one funnel webinar breakdown case study – John Lee Dumas is doing a great job of this
  • If you want to be on video during presentations, look at the Hangout option. Sharing slides the better option is GoToMeeting.
  • When calling, how do you collect phone #’s? You don’t want to ask for too much information at first. 2nd step is to add the phone # test reminder option. If you don’t have their phone #, have a virtual assistant find their phone # using their name and email
  • Integrating all the different pieces
  • B2B world – Linkedin is where it is at
  • Build a relationship with prospect before you go for the sale
  • Putting webinars on auto-pilot after the fact is a huge benefit
  • Prioritize according to what is working
