Anyone else crazy like me and attends get rich quick seminars?

Every now and then, I go along to one of those free 'I'll make you rich' type seminars. I am not the ideal audience member as I have no intention of buying anything! Even though I know a hard sell will be woven into the day-long 'learning', I do find being in the audience useful in a strange way.

Why do I go?

That question was going round and round my head as I sat in a humid basement the other day with 200 eager souls. I attend to network, possibly learn something and be energised being with likeminded strivers and triers!

What did I learn?

I'm already in the best place for learning and growing!

WA is the most comprehensive 'programme' / platform / training (whatever you want to call it!) available. No, it won't make you rich quick, but it gives you the opportunity to build a sustainable future.

The speaker did remind me Selling is an art and a science

Here are some little nuggets I'llkeep in mind when writing and building content for website / blog.

  • People pay for value and experience (buying is not just about price)
  • Sell the results, not the process
  • Nobody wants to be sold to, but people want to buy

Following the training here at WA will help keep me focused on being profitable.

Maggie,

I have attended some of those seminars. I understand why you would go and it is a good idea for networking.

Thanks for sharing.

Lisa

Thanks for sharing, so we don´t have to attend one of these events in mucky basements!

I went to one years ago and the speaker went on and on about real estate deals that seemed too good to be true. Then I noticed a few people toward the wind down of the pitch moving to chairs in the back of the room. Sure enough! They were prepositioning for the close when the speaker announced a killer of a deal but only if you signed up now! Then knowing what was coming stood by and laughed as 90% of the attendees stampeded to the rear.

Seminars are all 20% info and 80% sale talks. Its a waste of time.

Yep. It's is sales that's for sure! With a soupçon of info - that's the bit to go for, but you have to listen to a lot of crap for the info! Thanks for your comment. All the best

I have attended webinars that were 'get rich quick schemes', but after attending one or two, I learned that it certainly was NOT for me. That is why I chose WA and have never looked back :-)

Exactly. Much better here at WA. Thanks for commenting

I love the "sell the result" and "value and experience" you always pick up something of value on those seminars

That's true! Best to you

Great post! Guess it pays off to attend those sort of things once in a while ;-)

Once in a while. As long as I cone away with a nugget of wisdom then it's not a complete waste of time!

Good luck pushing forward :)

Thank you and same to you

I think you do come away with useful information even if you don't get involved....I have attended a lot of motivational seminars for the same reason....at the end of the day, it's still a hard slog!

You're right. And better to see them as motivational seminars, rather than 'someone trying to take my money talking rubbish!'. Good luck to you

I'm always intrigued by those seminars and quick rich believers

I know. Interesting mix of people at these live events. And I love people watching!
