EMBARRASSING MOMENT #879: What Happens When You Get Locked Out Of Your Own Teleseminar?

Will people pay for a $10,000 sales-oriented seminar if they can get it at a 99% discount? Without having to leave their offices?

I’m happy to report the answer is…yes. Yesterday was the first day of registration for HOW TO GET PAST THE GATEKEEPER: Advanced Strategies for Sales Professionals, and we’ve had a bunch of registrations from across the U.S. and Canada.

(I certainly hope we’ll have registrants from outside North America. Even with time differences, they’ll still receive the complete recordings afterward.)

Prior to announcing this intensive (and, I must say, very cool) teleseminar I signed up with a different telephone bridge provider — a very expensive one.

Why?

1. Much better sound quality. You won’t believe the difference.

2. More reliability. If you took part in my How To Double Your Sales teleseminar with Chet Holmes, here’s some behind-the-scenes drama you didn’t know about: In the middle of the call, my phone connection was dropped.

I was dropped from my own teleseminar.

Frantically I redialed — with the terrible fear that the system wouldn’t allow me back in, thinking that the “moderator” (that’s me) already was there.

Fortunately, I did get back onto the call — and Chet was still talking. Nobody missed me at all (which wasn’t all that good for my ego).

I decided, “Never again.” So if you join us next week, expect much better audio quality. And because I’ll be teaching nonstop, if I get cut off again — Well, at least I hope someone notices.
