How “Pre-Training” Videos Can Accelerate Profits
I’ve done it twice with Jack Canfield for his world famous 7-day Breakthrough To Success Training. I’ve done it with Mark Victor Hansen for his Mega Events.
I’ve done it with Joe Polish for his Rich Cleaner Bootcamp. I’ve done it with James Malinchak for his College Speaker Success bootcamp.
I’ve even done it for Raymond Aaron’s Truth About “The Secret” event and the Women’s Power Summit I founded with Jeanette Cates.
“It” is the accelerated profits and sales from events as a direct result of the “pre-training” tips method. Click the blue arrow below and take a peek of a few of these 21 Tips for Virtual Events.
You can utilize these tips for “virtual” events like Teleseminars or Webinars or for physical events you attend in person.

Hi Alex -
It has been my experience that “pre-training” accomplishes at least two great things:
it pre-qualifies your prospect
it pre-sells your prospect
both really good things.
Great tip, thanks

Hey Alex,
Virtual-based training is what I do together with offline training. I’ve been doing offline training for the last 15 years of my life.
What anyone can offer as pre-training is foundational. Without it, you could lose customers. Without it, you could end up losing out to competitors who do.
It’s another stick strategy that enables you to get closer to your customer without having to mess around with “jobs”.
I tell people – don’t be lazy. Be efficient. And the best way to do it for conversions is the way you do it through teleinstruction methods.
Thank you for your mentorship and friendship, and I wish you and your new class at TSS2008 the very profitable best.
warmly,
Stuart
Hey Alex,
I love this concept. I’m going to use it in our upcoming teleclass AND live event for http://www.theceofactor.com.
I’ve seen this concept used by doing a pre-event teleclass that teaches you what to do to prepare for an event. The call is recorded and sent out to attendees on CD. James Malinchak did this with myself and Jack Canfield a couple of years ago when we both spoke at his event. People are STILL talking about it.
As usual…great info!
Thanks.

There’s no doubt that we’re in the age of internet video. I’m dedicating all of 2009 to making that a big part of my business.
Sometimes we need to paint a picture – sometimes we need to show a picture. If someone has trusted us with their time and money for a training event, “showing” them how it all comes together only makes sense. It calms nerves, helps prevent buyers remorse, etc.
Yup, great stuff.

Alex,
It was a privilege to work with you on creating this product. I’ve already had a ton of feedback from students that the information has helped them tremendously. That was the goal, and we accomplished it!
I also posted a bit about how this recording came about over on my blog: http://martyfahncke.wordpress.com/2008/12/10/my-latest-information-product-with-alex-mandossian/
I look forward to many more years of partnership and success with you.

PS – Thanks also to Pat and Lorna at Spectacular Presentations for taking a regular audio product and making it a full-sensory learning tool. You guys rock!
Alex,
I love what Lorna and Pat are doing, it makes such a difference being able to move back and forth in your presentations, and to segment the content.
Of course being the Idea Implementation Coach, I applaud the idea of pre-training. I don’t know how you could be more supportive of implementation than you have become. you and Marty got the message across well, left me wanting to know the other 21 tips.
Warmly,
Rory
Alex, Right On!!!
As you preach, the better we pre-qualify prospects, the better our audience will become.
This is not only true for the initial program we obtain them for, but also for subsequent programs.
I have never used the videos YET. But now that I have seen how powerful it is, I will.

It was our privilege to work with great audio content that Alex and Marty but together and allowing us to put our Spectacular spin on it. Repurposing at its best!
Paul Collign said videos are important to “showing them”, but as Rory Cohen pointed out that being able to segment the content in manageable chucks is what most videos are lacking. Allowing the prospect and student the ability to move back and forth easily in a presentation we thing is key.
If your content (videos) isn’t easy to consume, as Jeff Herring pointed out, the pre-training, pre-qualifying and pre-selling isn’t going to happen.
Thanks to Alex for allowing us to showcase our Spectacular Presentations.

Alex, as requested my comments
clear,precise,easy rate of learning
hope this helps
Thanks to you I’m discovering how these pre-training calls can be effective for the many live trainings I lead in corporations.
I’ll test this, but I already believe that when students preview a course (even if the course is a half day or day), they can provide vital information on what they want to have covered in the course so that it is tailored to them and they’ll walk into the room for the live training feeling like they know me.
A pre-training call will also get them thinking, learning and talking about the material before the course begins. That may even lead to greater interest and more enrollment. My courses already up fast, and this added preview will create even more of a buzz.
I appreciate you, Alex.

Alex -
Thanks for sharing these pre-training tips. This is my 2nd year with Teleseminar Secrets and these tips have provided much more clarity of what to do FIRST. I love the fact that these tips help ground you (the learner) as in tip #1 and helps you deal with the impending information overload that naturally comes when aborbing new information (albeit of great quality!).
Definitely something for me to emulate and consider taking a page out of Paul Colligan’s book on doing this with video…But baby steps FIRST. =)
Cheers,
Marian
