00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:07.599
Hi, you have done too sensu.

2
00:00:10.839 --> 00:00:11.919
Wow for you.

3
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:21.839
It's the pipe Man here on the Adventures of Pipe

4
00:00:21.879 --> 00:00:25.760
Man W four c Y Radio, the Positively Pipeman segment

5
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:33.600
with powerful business strategies from Michael Barbarita the c Would

6
00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:37.240
I call you the CEO of Next Step CFO or

7
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:39.880
should we just stick to President? I like the ring

8
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:45.280
of how it said the CEO CEO of Next Step cring.

9
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:46.719
There's no question about that.

10
00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:50.399
I'm doing great.

11
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:55.039
And you know, coincidentally, we are doing a live event

12
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.520
right now, and today we're going to talk about live

13
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.159
events and webinars, so that's direct to do it.

14
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:02.000
All right.

15
00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:05.680
So, in today's global markets, you know, connecting with people

16
00:01:05.799 --> 00:01:08.640
all over the world has actually become easier than ever.

17
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:12.319
And you know, webinars and virtual events are an excellent

18
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:16.439
way to connect with people without having to physically be there.

19
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:21.159
It also provides you know, small business owners with multiple

20
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:24.400
ways to scale and build connections with people not just

21
00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:27.239
in their local area but anywhere in the world actually.

22
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:30.400
And then live events, on the other hand, are one

23
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:32.519
of the best ways to bring people together and it's

24
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.480
a great way to leverage your time using what I

25
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:38.719
call a one to many strategy, and the webinar does

26
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:45.840
the same thing. It's one meeting that addresses many, hopefully prospects.

27
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:50.000
And as a business owner, you can create, really you

28
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:53.680
can create an amazing experience for your audience while leveraging

29
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:57.640
your time by making one presentation to however, many prospects

30
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:01.519
that you can find with customers, clients and attendance. And

31
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:04.719
we'll talk about a little later the challenge of getting

32
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:10.400
people to these events. But you know, with both live

33
00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:13.199
events and webinars, they provide leverage and that if that's

34
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:15.639
that one to many kind of thing, and and there

35
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:18.319
are some key differences. Of course, a live event creates

36
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.000
more of a personal connection that's kind of hard to

37
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:25.439
replicate for in a virtual setting. And I think a

38
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.479
live event also allows the opportunity to build trust and

39
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:33.240
credibility faster and on a more personal level.

40
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:35.000
But you know, on the.

41
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.360
Downside, live events can be expensive. There's you know, the travel,

42
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:41.960
there's a combinations, there's venues that you have to set

43
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:43.800
up and so forth, and you have to get people's

44
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.599
fannings in the seats, uh, you know, which can be

45
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:50.120
a challenge. Uh. And you know, virtual events they're a

46
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:53.879
little simpler they're less expensive to host, they don't require

47
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.840
any travel or accommodations or even a venue other than

48
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:02.080
Zoom or something similar to Zoom. And you know, the

49
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:07.000
geographical limitations are totally eliminated, but still allow an opportunity

50
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:11.159
to connect with people all around the world. And you know,

51
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:13.919
the personal interaction that comes with a live event can't

52
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:20.120
be fully replicated in a virtual setting. However, I believe

53
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:24.960
what's happening in the in the webinar a world is

54
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:29.360
that people are starting to make them more interactive. Because

55
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:35.520
if you're just gotting on there and touting whatever it

56
00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:39.719
is that you're you know, doing like a seminar where

57
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:44.479
you're talking all the time, it creates it creates some

58
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:48.120
boredom and on the part of the audience and your

59
00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:50.439
dropout rate, which is something that you have to deal

60
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:53.360
with mostly with virtual events, not as much with live events,

61
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:57.400
but with virtual events, your dropout rate is accelerated because

62
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:01.560
you're not making the webinar interactive mm hmm. And and

63
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:03.840
there are a number of ways. One of the things

64
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:06.439
that I do to make webinars interactive is I have

65
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.879
what I call the virtual roundtable, and what a virtual

66
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.719
round executive roundtable and what an executive virtual roundtable is.

67
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:17.000
As I talk about the strategies in my book, I'll

68
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:21.199
present strategies that I have from my book, and then

69
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.120
I will let the audience give us their opinion on

70
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:27.120
whether or not the strategy would work in their industry.

71
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.800
And it allows for dialogue. I mean, after you know,

72
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:33.839
I present a strategy and then all of a sudden,

73
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:40.000
there's dialogue among everybody and people chime in. Even people

74
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:44.879
who sometimes are more fearful of talking are participating in

75
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.839
these uh And sometimes at the end they'll tell me

76
00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:50.240
that they can't believe they participate it to the level

77
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:53.399
that they did. But you know, when you ask the

78
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:56.560
right questions and you present the right things, it can

79
00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:01.879
create questions, even if so Boddy is and it happens

80
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:03.720
to me, you know, it has certainly happens to me

81
00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.279
when I'll present a strategy and somebody says, see, I

82
00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:08.319
don't think it'll work in my industry because of this

83
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:10.920
and that. But that's valuable input, not only for me,

84
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:16.560
but also for the rest of the audience. Sure, and

85
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.120
so the more interaction that you can make in a webinar,

86
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:23.720
the better you're your your attention rate the people who

87
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:27.600
stay on is a lot longer, and there's the bottom

88
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:30.000
factor is virtually eliminated.

89
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:32.439
I'll give a perfect example of that.

90
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.920
So I go and do these coverage for these podcasts

91
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:42.839
and broadcasting events, and when there's virtual ones, they have

92
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:50.639
literally like a it's kind of a chat room, kind

93
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.600
of also meeting room, kind of also you know, everything combined,

94
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:58.879
a networking room. They call them all these different names,

95
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:04.199
but basically allows people to do is not be bored

96
00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:10.839
because they're interacting with other people through these chatrooms, networking rooms,

97
00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:14.839
meeting rooms, and everybody's feeding back and forth and then

98
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:21.279
they're feeding their questions into the presenter, and the presenter.

99
00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:22.800
Can see all that stuff and interacts.

100
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.160
And even on radio, Okay, I have always been a

101
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:31.519
big proponent personally on my own show that if people

102
00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:36.959
chat during the show, you know, whether it be commenting

103
00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:39.399
or we use even on the radio network when we

104
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:42.639
were just radio in the beginning, when there wasn't all this.

105
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:45.120
Technology, we had a chat room.

106
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:51.600
And basically it's interesting because people would just come because

107
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:54.639
they loved the chatroom, and that got them listening to

108
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:57.759
these radio shows because they loved the chatroom.

109
00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:00.079
Okay, but also so.

110
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:03.879
It did it create where like they were part of it.

111
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:07.319
But also when I would read the chat room or

112
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:11.199
now if I see comments, I will talk directly to

113
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.360
those people, even though they're not talking back to me

114
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.480
because they're not in the show, they are because they're chatting.

115
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:22.160
And I've literally with the chat room, weigh with radio,

116
00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:26.160
and now with commenting, you literally can have a whole

117
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:30.600
conversation on the air live by doing that, and then

118
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:33.000
people are engaged and even the listeners that are not

119
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:36.560
part of that are more engaged and less bored because

120
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:38.519
it's not just somebody talking to them.

121
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:40.240
I love that.

122
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.279
Yeah, No, I find that to be the same things.

123
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:47.279
I think that's what makes a webinar special when it

124
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:51.920
can be interactive, because it gets very monotone when just

125
00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:56.639
one person is speaking and kind of you know, there

126
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:59.040
might be a lot of education value that that person

127
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:02.680
is offering. I mean, if you listen to Great Court cardone,

128
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:06.439
he'll do a whole fifty three minute podcast, uh you know,

129
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:11.920
and and and it just be him and but but

130
00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:14.680
and you know, he doesn't have a chat room or anything,

131
00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:17.639
so he's not taking there's no interaction at all, and

132
00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:20.079
you know he's really good at it, so he's probably

133
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:23.040
he probably gets very high ratings and a successful at it.

134
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:26.040
But I think it depends on the personality, for sure,

135
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:27.759
it really, it really does.

136
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:31.720
But to the common man, you know, I think it

137
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:36.600
has to be more interactive then yeah, and then uh,

138
00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:39.600
you know, making an offer at a live or virtual

139
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:42.879
event significantly increases your chances of closing a sale. By

140
00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:45.519
the way, every time you do a live event, there

141
00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:46.840
should be an offer of some sort.

142
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:49.960
That's a real must black in the room.

143
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:53.240
Yeah, it's right. A lot of people have live events,

144
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:57.440
webinars and so forth and don't even make an offer.

145
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:00.159
I think, Well, let me let me give you a

146
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:04.039
personal example of that. When I left the financial business

147
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:09.759
and became a speaker. Yeah, like, being a motivational person

148
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:12.519
was the way I was all my life since I'm eleven,

149
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:15.679
So it's kind of a strange transition to make that

150
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:19.200
what I was doing for a living. So the first

151
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:24.240
year I would do all these seminars and never try

152
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:27.559
to sell anything or promote anything because I was so

153
00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:34.039
engrossed in the message and helping people. Okay, until one

154
00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:37.919
of my mentors gave me one of the best advice ever,

155
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:42.759
best pieces of advice. Ever, he said, he asked me

156
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:43.639
two questions.

157
00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:45.440
First one is.

158
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.919
If you truly are giving value and truly are helping people,

159
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:53.519
don't you deserve to get paid?

160
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:54.919
Number one?

161
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:58.519
Number two, if you're not getting paid and you're not

162
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:01.679
making money and you can't pay your bills, how many

163
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.320
how much can you really help people? And those really

164
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:08.320
hit home because I had this blockage in my head

165
00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:12.200
is what it was, and that really hit home, Like, Okay,

166
00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:17.639
I like people ask me, even in this business, when

167
00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:20.200
do I have the right And this goes back to

168
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:24.399
you know, previous show you did, when do I have

169
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:27.759
the right to ask for sponsors? Or the other question

170
00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:30.039
I've heard most of my career when do I have

171
00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:32.399
the right to ask for referrals? And they always think

172
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:34.759
that when you first make the sale, you don't have

173
00:10:34.919 --> 00:10:37.679
the right. You know, you don't have the right yet.

174
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:41.799
My viewpoint is this My answer to those people is

175
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:48.960
the minute that you wake up in the morning, because

176
00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:53.960
you know, the bottom line is is you have the

177
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:57.559
right right ways. So many people are like, well, I

178
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:02.080
can't ask for sponsors because I I haven't even uh

179
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:05.159
you know, I don't even have any listeners yet because

180
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:10.080
I only did one episode. Doesn't matter, you know, it's

181
00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:12.799
all about what you present and the value you present

182
00:11:12.879 --> 00:11:15.519
to people. But again that's why they're on network like

183
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:18.279
mine that already has built in listeners, So it doesn't

184
00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:24.639
matter if you have listeners, right, So true that you're

185
00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:26.360
part of something, right.

186
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:31.440
And you know, the other thing is the other challenge

187
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:35.159
that business owners have is getting people to a live

188
00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:40.039
event or a webinar. And you know, I found a

189
00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:44.480
couple of things. Number one, I found that email marketing

190
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.639
is usually the best way, or one of the best ways,

191
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:48.480
I should call it the best.

192
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:53.320
It's still considered one of the best ways for sure statistics, right,

193
00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:55.320
And so that's.

194
00:11:55.159 --> 00:12:00.200
A good methodology. And the other the other methodology is

195
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.120
using social media. And one of the things that I

196
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:09.200
learned uh recently, uh Dean, was this program that LinkedIn

197
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:13.879
has called LinkedIn Events. And a LinkedIn event is a

198
00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:17.080
webinar or some type of live some type of live

199
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:22.240
event where you can actually promote it through LinkedIn and

200
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.000
if you develop enough of a following, LinkedIn will promote.

201
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:26.120
It for you.

202
00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:31.240
So it's a it's an interesting it's an interesting angle

203
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.200
to getting people to a webinar. You can also collaborate

204
00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:40.000
with influencers, industry influencers, speakers, or other business partners to

205
00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:45.200
expand your reach. And you can also use you know

206
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:49.039
seo and pay per click methodologies to get people to.

207
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:51.120
A webinar.

208
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:55.960
One of the things that one of the things that

209
00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:01.919
I've learned about this process is you have to kind

210
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.519
of be careful because there's some people out there that

211
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:08.639
are talking about what's called a calendar hack. I don't

212
00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:11.240
know if you ever heard of it, Dean, or if

213
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:13.799
you encountered it, and let me let me explain what

214
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:18.200
it is, because I think I think it's not I

215
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:20.840
don't think it's legal. But I'm not a lawyer, and

216
00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:23.320
I can't get a lawyer to say it's legal or earlygal.

217
00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:25.039
I can just get a lawyer to say, don't do it.

218
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:30.159
But but what it is is it's actually an email

219
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:35.240
that that is a calendar invite, and so it goes

220
00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:39.759
into your calendar, so it affects a second system and

221
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:44.080
now the calendar in your the invite in your calendar

222
00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:47.639
is is great out a bit because you haven't accepted

223
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:51.240
it yet. But what people have found is that it's

224
00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:54.360
been an excellent way to get Unfortunately, an excellent way

225
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:58.799
to get people to a webinar. It's worked extremely well.

226
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:00.679
I've never done it because I just don't like the

227
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:05.519
ethics associated with it, and I feel like, if you know,

228
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:10.000
B to B email is not considered sparing. Okay, as

229
00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:14.440
long as all of the things like opt out opportunities

230
00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:18.279
and and and your your address, your uh, your your

231
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:20.559
addresses in there, your phone numbers in there, all that

232
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:24.919
stuff makes it makes it legal B to B. But

233
00:14:25.080 --> 00:14:31.840
when you talk about email and a calendar invite, that

234
00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:35.519
is impacting a second system. You have to really think

235
00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:38.759
about the legality of that. And there are a lot

236
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:41.639
of gurus out there that are recommending the calendar hack

237
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:45.279
because it works so well. But when you do it,

238
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:48.159
there is a lot of blowback as well from people

239
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:52.240
who are aggravated that their calendar was consumed by this.

240
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:56.960
Event. And I have my opinion on it too.

241
00:14:57.159 --> 00:14:58.480
Could I get your opinion on that?

242
00:14:59.720 --> 00:15:00.559
Sure, I would love it.

243
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:05.399
Apparently they've been promoting that a lot lately because recently

244
00:15:06.399 --> 00:15:10.559
I've had it happen many times in the past month.

245
00:15:10.679 --> 00:15:14.159
For some reason, It's happened like multiple times, and it's

246
00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:20.279
usually spammers, So you know that or I call them spammers.

247
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:20.720
Okay.

248
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:25.519
Second of all, I've had some from way back. So

249
00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:28.240
let me tell you two of the issues that I have.

250
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:29.759
I don't like it.

251
00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:34.480
Don't force things into my calendar. I already have a

252
00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:38.840
very busy calendar, okay, And that kind of screws up

253
00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:42.919
my scheduling in my calendar. Number one okay, So it

254
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:49.120
pisses me off there being blunt okay, And I immediately

255
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:52.960
view that this person is a spammer or scammer because

256
00:15:53.639 --> 00:15:58.000
they hacked into my calendar. Something else I've noticed that

257
00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:01.639
makes it really bad. I have a couple that I

258
00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:06.399
cannot for any way, shape or form, no matter how

259
00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:10.480
they set it up as a recurring thing, these spammers,

260
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:15.559
and you cannot delete all events. You can only delete

261
00:16:16.120 --> 00:16:20.519
like the one. And so there's a couple that every

262
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:23.799
single month, these things are showing up in my calendar,

263
00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:26.840
and there's no way for me to get rid of

264
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.080
them at all, like I've tried, and I'm a techie,

265
00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:33.840
and there's no way to get rid of them at all,

266
00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:38.399
even if you do something like I had one that

267
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:41.080
hadn't shown up in a couple of years because I

268
00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:44.039
feared a way to stop it. I bought a new phone,

269
00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:45.639
and now they're reappearing again.

270
00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:46.240
You know.

271
00:16:46.440 --> 00:16:50.080
It's like and yeah, they're just putting it in your calendar.

272
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.240
So it's more than an invite in my opinion, because

273
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:57.720
they're putting it in your calendar. It's like to me,

274
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:02.279
it's almost like somebody putting mail in my mailbox without

275
00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:04.359
sending it through the US Postal Service.

276
00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:08.079
Yeah, yeah, right, I mean, you know so, because I

277
00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:12.440
see it as an invasion of a second system, I

278
00:17:12.599 --> 00:17:15.119
think it's illegal, but I don't know, and of course

279
00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:15.720
I don't do it.

280
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:19.240
People are already annoyed by getting too many emails. Now

281
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:21.440
you're going to have this all over your calendar, Like.

282
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:24.319
I know, the calendar. It goes into the calendar, and

283
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:27.119
unless you you know, say you don't want to call,

284
00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:31.799
you know, you deny the attendance. That's the only way

285
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:34.000
it comes out of your calendar. But in the meantime,

286
00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:37.519
an important person can't schedule.

287
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:40.480
Time in that blood exactly.

288
00:17:41.799 --> 00:17:46.119
And it's, uh, it's really annoying. I haven't heard of

289
00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:51.319
the of the ongoing like you know, once a month.

290
00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:54.079
Oh my god, that's going to be annoy really annoying.

291
00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:57.559
And really like think of the possible prospects you could

292
00:17:57.599 --> 00:17:59.319
have that are going to do business with you, that

293
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:01.680
you start doing that stuff. Like, if you start doing that,

294
00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.400
I'm never doing business with you, no matter what your

295
00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:08.920
product is. That's meant some people would. Now you take

296
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:11.960
another side of it. You know, it's like people get

297
00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:15.519
scammed on the tax phone call and people get scammed

298
00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:19.640
on the dating sites. Yes, it will be effective because

299
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:23.799
people are gonna think it's because what happens is when

300
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:26.000
you first see it in your calendar, you think it's

301
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:27.039
an actual.

302
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:28.200
Thing that you schedule.

303
00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:30.400
I know That's what kills me, right.

304
00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:36.599
Yeah, so I'll be like Simon from uh, you know,

305
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:39.240
America's most Talent.

306
00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:43.400
I'm voting no, not going on to the next round,

307
00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:44.359
am I.

308
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:49.079
But anyway, Dean, I I'd like to offer your audience

309
00:18:49.480 --> 00:18:53.039
an opportunity to get a free workbook called this is

310
00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:57.000
a free implementation workbook too. This isn't just education. I

311
00:18:57.079 --> 00:18:59.119
mean you can go to AI if you want you

312
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:01.200
want to let about life events and webinars, you go

313
00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:03.640
to AI or you can go to Google. This is

314
00:19:03.759 --> 00:19:06.680
actually a step by step roadmap on how to implement

315
00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:09.960
live events and webinars and so to get that you

the help they can get.

324
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:33.119
In my opinion, and that's not a bad way. It

325
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:34.759
just means we have so.

00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:38.279
