I’m hunkered down at home in Leesburg, VA today, basking in the aftermath of the parts 1 and 2 of the East Coast Blizzard 2010.
As I write this, nearly 4 feet of snow have fallen outside my door. At one point, it was falling at about 2 inches an hour.
Just piling and piling up.
Should be fun digging out of this.
Anyways, watching the snowfall got me thinking about your teleseminars and webinars and the endless potential for profits they give you when you understand the power of automation.
You see, if you do a teleseminar or webinar once and don’t automate it, the next time you need money you have to go back and repeat the same work all over again.
But when you do a teleseminar or webinar once and automate the process, you can move on to the next big thing while that one session runs constantly, generating income for you day and night.
Like this ‘round the clock snowfall, automated “sessions that sell” can dump blizzard-like piles of profits on your business.
I lit the fireplace in my office/studio and recorded a 15-minute video on the teleseminar & webinar automation strategy and how it applies to your business.
Just press play.

P.S. If you want the definitive training on teleseminars & webinars that sell … INCLUDING exactly how to integrate automation into your business and sales processes … you should enroll in my training on the topic. I’m in the home stretch of the 2009-2010 Teleseminars & Webinars That Sell training (everyone who enrolls on that page gets the new training free).
Plenty of ingredients go into a successful business.
In the early stages, one of the most important is having the energy and the will and the desire to stick with something even when it appears to be not working. And even when the world is telling you it’s just no good.
Having a great idea and being passionate about it helps with that.
So does being surrounded by great people who believe.
And being pissed off helps a lot.
A little “righteous indignation” can help push people through the rough times.
For years now, I have been very aware of how much local businesses contribute to my (and other) communities.
Put aside the pragmatic things like jobs and products and services they provide, look around your community, and my guess is there are a few small businesses run by passionate owners that improve quality of life, contribute to a sense of connection in your area, and just make you feel good.
It could be an amazing restaurant, the handyman who always comes through, or any of hundreds of others of local businesses run with passion and pride.
And for years now I have been pissed at how limited or outright bad the advice these business owners have to choose from when it comes to growing their companies.
While “small business” advice includes them … the truth is that LOCAL businesses are different. Different rules, different media, different measures of success. This is even more true with the advent and acceleration of local internet marketing.
I’m doing something about it.
We are building a website specifically for local business owners, called Inside Local Business.
I’m contributing marketing articles and tutorials there, and an array of experts in everything from advertising to finance to employees will be publishing there soon.*
Frankly, I just got so tired of being so pissed off … that I couldn’t not do it any longer.
What do you feel that way about?
And what are you waiting for?
Be well, Michael Cage
