1. In order to optimize your revenue potential from teleseminars over the long term, think in terms of a main topic and subtopics your market would be interested in. The more you can pinpoint what your clients/customers want, the more successful you will be.
2. Before hosting a teleseminar, find out what your market is interested in. You can do this by simply asking by way of a survey. A great tool for surveys is Survey Monkey.
3. Be sure to record your teleseminars. This is extremely important in order to give those who were not on the live call a chance to listen in. You can have the recordings transcribed and turn the transcripts into a number of information products including articles, e-books, e-reports, sales page information, tips, and tweets.
4. A huge part of the success model is promoting your “open to the public” teleseminars. Put together a checklist of the various ways to market such as tweets, media releases, articles, blog posting, Facebook wall posting, events calendars, etc. From there, timeline your promotions working back from the date of the event.
5. If you have a particular product or service you want to bring to market, before developing a full program, test the waters. The first step in “testing the waters” is to host a complimentary teleseminar to gauge the market response. You will save a considerable amount of time, frustration and money by doing so.
6. The first teleseminar is going to be the hardest. Primarily because it is your first time. Keep this in mind as you move forward. Once the first one is done, the rest are much easier.
