Recipe for Success?

Hello again

A nineteenth-century recipe for jugged hare began with the immortal line:

'First, catch your hare'.

If you've ever seen a hare run, you'll know that's a bit like saying, 'First, get thousands of visitors to your website'.

Next to impossible unless you're already a big player online.

So, in order to eat, we might have to settle for something a bit slower-moving than a hare, at least for now.

How about a seated audience?

Given that most website visitors only linger for a few seconds and most direct mail readers don't actually read... might an hour or so of someone's attention give you a better chance of communicating your benefits to them?

I'd say so. Coaches, trainers and overseas property companies know so. Even Internet marketers know their best audience is one that sits still and listens, with no distraction from the million and one other Internet marketers' emails.

In other words, seminars sell. Why else would Armand Morin, Andrew Reynolds, Sean Roach, Ted Nicholas, Simon Coulson, Mark Anastasi (and a load more) put them on?

If they wanted to be on stage they could join an amateur dramatic group!

No, seminars sell. For seventeen dollars you can find out once and for all how they can sell for you, too.

Go to this special Niche Seminar Secrets Page while you think about it!

Don't Put Your Daughter on the Stage

... yes, it's before my time, as well.

But it's probably not the sage bit of advice it used to be. After all, what's a 'proper job' in the city worth right now? And doesn't the stage just soun d like it would be much more fun?

Anyway, to quote another old saying, 'The smell of the greasepaint and the roar of the crowd' (or vice-versa) may have been coined by that great old showman PT Barnum, but they still hold a tremendous attraction now, for actors, singers, comedians, illusionists, Internet marketers...

Most of those people have businesses away from the stage that rely on their stage or screen persona to prosper. Actors need their next role, singers promote their new album, and so on, and Internet marketers promote their latest product or service.

The point is, they promote themselves from the stage (and sometimes from the screen). It makes logical sense but it also makes them feel great and that feeling is one they can share with everyone.

To reach the maximum number of people, the limitations of a theatre or auditorium stage may not seem the most efficient medium. But to reach them directly, credibly and indelibly, a live performance is exactly what's needed. It's also a great way to feel alive!

So, if you're aiming to be the next Billy Connolly or, more likely, the next big shot in Internet marketing, get up there and do your stuff!

Have you ever heard the sound of applause aimed at you? How did it make you feel?

Wealthy, perhaps?
