Hi All,
When it comes to teleseminars (and this absolutely applies to all your information products and services as well). It's absolutely true that you need to do some free events whether to build your list, preview a much more comprehensive teleseminar training, to assist a joint venture partner, as a goodwill gesture, etc. But there are way too many people out there giving away way too much of their content for free, when they could be, and should be, charging for at least a portion of it. What you know always has value. If you're not charging for a certain item of content, there must be a solid business reason for it. You must already have a plan in place for how you'll monetize at least indirectly every single free offering you make, and not offer something for free because you're simply afraid of asking for the money. It's wonderful to have fans of your work, I'm lucky to have many myself and value every single one, like readers of this infopreneur blog. But at some point, if you don't have enough of them who are willing to show they truly value your knowledge by making at least some purchase from you, or referring you to others who do, you're not going to be able to make a living from what you know. Be confident in the value of your content. You'll be surprised how many people will gladly pay for your knowledge when you price it fairly for the value given, and simply ask them to.
Moral of the story: DO NOT underestimate the value of your teleseminar training content!
