Call me to talk about

Webinars - Product Launches

A graduate of Jeff Walker's Product Launch Formula (and first runner up in his 2013 contest.) In addition to holding several webinars (product launches) for my own product Train Your Brain which all grossed between $61,000 and $138,000 in sales, (with a product price point of $67 - $97), I have partnered with dozens of other professionals and trained them how to structure their launch so that I could promote it as a Joint Venture partner.

I specifically use the webinar method of product launches and I can teach you how to structure your content and your pitch. I can reveal the best types of special offers, how to find JV Partners, and the benefits and drawbacks of a variety of webinar services. Most importantly, I can help you to have a profitable launch.

Fast Business Growth Strategies

Twice I have built businesses from zero to $1,000,000 in under two years. As the author of Train Your Brain, I have helped thousands of other entrepreneurs, small business owners, and individual professionals.

I can help you to clarify your message, discover your niche, and teach you how to grow quickly by leveraging the power of your mind and knowing which actions to take first.

I've studied marketing with some of the biggest internet marketers in the business and have had great success with Social Media - primarily Facebook and Pinterest.

I can help you choose the best path to action based on your personality style and gifts.

Direct Sales - Network Marketing

I built a party plan, direct sales business from zero to $1,000,000 in nineteen months. As the author of Train Your Brain, I have helped thousands of other direct sales, party plan, and network marketing professionals build their businesses quickly.

I can help you find a method of lead generation that works for you. Help you get your first bookings. Teach you how to lead a local or a long distance team. I can assist you in discovering the best methods for booking, selling, offering your opportunity, and sponsoring based on your personality style and gifts.

In addition, I've studied marketing with some of the best marketers in the business and have had great success with Social Media - primarily Facebook and Pinterest.

Finally, my primary area of expertise is revealing how you can leverage the power of your mind to build your business faster.

Teleseminars - Telesummits

I have been the host of The Mind Aware Teleseminar for four seasons and a Wall Street Journal Radio Show host for two seasons.

I can teach you the formula for making money with teleseminars. (My teleseminars have grossed up to $250,000 per season.) I can teach you the format, how to interview, what types of offers work, how to find your experts, how to promote, and how to get high opt-in rates.

I cannot teach you how to manage the technology (building website pages, servers, etc.) I can give you guidance here and refer you to resources, but this is not my area of expertise.

Hosting a teleseminar series played a primary role in the fast growth of my business. (We have grown from zero to 60,000 followers in two years.)

How many is too many affiliates for a video training product launch? Is it quality over quantity?

You're getting great advice here already. One caveat I would add with regards to the number of affiliates is this . . . it depends what your time is worth and who is doing the actual "writing of checks."

If you are using a service like Clickbank where they issue the checks or if you have a bookkeeper who does this for you, no biggie. On the other hand, if you're doing it yourself, you might want to give some thought as to how wide you go. It always sounds great to have 1,000 affiliates, unless you're writing out 977 checks for $7. It's been been addressed in this thread already . . . do what you can to get quality over quantity. As Ali mentioned, there is no negative to having EFFECTIVE affiliates.

It sounds like you're good at relationship building and that will serve you really well in a product launch.

Inspire your affiliates to send their first email on "launch" day, which makes it look like "everyone" is talking about it. Keep them motivated with contests and leader boards. (Never underestimate the power of the iPad. Lol.)

If you know the personalities involved and the rivalries, reach out in personal email and egg them on . . . "Man, you're only 2 sales behind so-and-so! I thought you'd like to know how close you are!"

And as it's been mentioned here . . . make sure you've got an offer, upsells, etc. that deliver. Nothing motivates affiliates more than when you can show them the money!

Have fun with it and good luck to you! :) Dana

I want to start hosting Webinars on marketing topics. What provider do you recommend?

I know a lot of people love GoToWebinar, but I prefer methods where the client doesn't have to download anything to their computer. That makes it feel like a bit of a dog to our people.

Depending on your budget and needs, here are some that we've used and liked:

Instant Teleseminar:
Pros - Low-cost entry, can embed the code on to your own page, public chat room available, very reliable (I've been using it for five years and have never had any failure or technical issue and we've had up to 3,000 participants on this one.)
Cons: Cannot download the replay in video format, but can replay it and embed. Also, this is a powerpoint only type webinar (no screen share or "you on camera")

Meet.fm:
Pros - low-cost entry point, chat, pop-up boxes, can brand with your info, analytics on exactly who watched your replay, versatile - you on camera, powerpoint, play videos, share your screen, do it all. Stable with crowds (we've had up to 3,000 on this one too.)
Cons - no embedding, a little buggy on the audio (guests sometimes have to use the phone in option.)

WebinarJam:
Pros - One-time investment instead of monthly, nice "wrapper" for Google Hangouts, dynamic - lots of functions and lots of ways to share info.
Cons - Higher learning curve, higher one-time investment

22Social:
Pros - Easy to use (registration page, view page are one), Nice templates to choose from, reliable and sound (no tech issues ever), dynamic (too many options to list including a built in affiliate program.)
Cons - Facebook only (but if this is where you are meeting with your audience or if you are selling a social media product, then this is THE tool.)

There are so many more out there, but I just wanted to share those I have personally used often.

Best of luck with your research and your project!

Dana is simply amazing ! First, she has a unique ability to be 100% PRESENT which is rare in this day and age with attention spans seeming shorter and shorter. Dana gave me a lot of clarity as well as some great marketing tips. Dana's approach is very different than the advice you will get from 95 % of the gurus in both the marketing and mindset space. Instead of getting you OUT of your comfort zone she helps you tap INTO your comfort zone! You will feel great after speaking with Dana!

Ken Allen Source: Clarity

Dana is so insightful. Her approach with positive, feel good mindset is the most effective change technique I've used with myself and clients. She helped me rewrite the story I was telling around the direction of my coaching. She is so easy to talk with. Amazing!

Jill Shreve Source: Clarity

In a very short time Dana helped me see what was missing in my launch and guide me in the direction of how to turn it around. Within a week I had generated ten times the cost of my call with Dana in new revenue. I can't recommend her enough.

Julie Lisabeth Gray, PCC Source: Clarity

Dana is one of the most forthcoming, helpful and insightful people I have ever met. She goes above and beyond expectations, and is truly an encyclopedia of information when it comes to direct sales, telesummits and creating the right mindset for success. She was instrumental to our company when we launched our first telesummit, and continues to be a trusted resource. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Tammy Mastroberte Source: Clarity

The 40 minutes I spent with Dana was invaluable. I am working on putting together webinars and since she is the industry expert I went to her. She reviewed what I had put together and provided some tips and pointers to make it even better! Thanks Dana, you saved me a lot of trial and error!

My call with Dana was about setting up webinars and how to get the most out of them. In my 45 minute call I learned more about how to do webinars right than in the last 7 years of my own trial and error. It definitely makes a difference when you talk to someone who is an industry expert and has done it. Thanks for your assistance Dana and I look forward to more great discussions with you.

Greg Kopchuk Source: Clarity

Dana is my #1 go-to person for internet and affiliate marketing advice. Every tip and strategy she shares is pure gold. She's a joy to talk with, and her passion and business savvy radiate through the phone line. Every time I talk with Dana, I'm left truly inspired and ready to take massive action in my business.

Ande Anderson Source: Clarity

I loved working with Dana. She is a master at having simple, yet highly effective, systems in place in order to launch new products with ease and grace. I can see how she built a million dollar company more than once! I look forward to working with her again.

I have experienced more success using Dana's super-easy to implement strategies in my direct sales business, then any other methods, systems or actions I've tried. Not to mention how much FUN I had in the process!

Shari McLaws Source: LinkedIn

As a professional speaker in the direct selling profession, I participated in The Mind Aware Telesummit that Dana and her company produced. This event was an enormous undertaking with many top level speakers involved, and Dana treated me as if I was the only one. Her level of professionalism, integrity and a genuine sense of care and support for everyone involved impressed me. As a business interviewer, Dana brings out the best in people and creates opportunities for them to truly shine. The experience of working with Dana was outstanding, and the results her event created for my business far exceeded my expectations. I recommend saying "yes" to anything Dana is involved in, you won't be disappointed, and she makes sure of that.

WOW! I think Dana changed my life this weekend. She was a great speaker to watch and learn from. She explains things so everyone in the audience could understand and apply them to their lives. Dana was funny and entertaining as well as educational. I would recommend Dana to any group looking for a speaker/trainer.
