Are you a fan of teleseminars? I am, in fact, I am such a fan that I attend as many as six of them each week, in a variety of elements. You might find me simply attending a teleseminar or there as a guest or host. Why do I spend so much time each week attending these types of seminars? Because I have come up with a way to somehow benefit from every single one and I'd like to share some of my techniques, giving you the same benefits.

1. Before I sign up for any teleseminar I make sure that I carefully read the announcement or sales letter first. If the speaker or the topic of the seminar is not of interest to me, there is no point in wasting my time. Therefore, I make sure that I read it very carefully, so I know what I am expecting when I arrive.

2. There are many seminars that are given complementary, the only downfall of that is the fact that at the end of each one there will be some form of sales pitch. In my eyes, this is ok simply because those five minutes for a commercial followed fifty-five minutes of solid and informative content.

3. I take full advantage of teleseminars that ask me to submit a question. There is good reason for this. First, it allows me to get answers to the questions I want to hear. Even if I have to think really hard, I submit a good question, which is what the host will want. The earlier you submit your questions, the more likely they are to be asked.

That means that if they use your question your name will be mentioned on the call. This is no cost publicity! Not only will the live audience hear your name, but everyone who listens to the replay will hear it, too. That can be years of PR.

Now this means a great deal to you because if you attend a lot of teleseminars and get your questions, with your name mentioned in many of them, all of the sudden you are starting to get recognized. Then you are also now becoming an expert in that field as well, since you are now being associated with the other experts within the seminar.

4. Whether or not they ask for it, send a testimonial immediately after the teleseminar. Don't wait till the next day. The seminar host is flying high and posting the followup page right after the seminar ends. So when your timely testimonial arrives, he/she is likely to add it to the site. You will be amazed at how many people say "I saw your testimonial on so-and-so's site."

You want to make sure that the testimonial is a good one. Get specific, do not be vague. Mention something specific about the teleseminar that stuck out in your mind. This is a way for you to get exposure, because that testimonial will include your website address, title, and name.

5. Many hosts of teleseminars will offers you the ability to become an affiliate or part of their resale program. This is generally a great idea for you because you are in a good position. You just went through the seminar, you wrote a great review, now all at that is left is you to let other people know about it. The testimonial that you wrote could be a great starting point for your own sales copy.

So the next time you sign up for a teleseminar, look upon it as a marketing opportunity!
