What is a teleclass? A teleclass is a class that you teach over the phone. To teach a teleclass, you need material to teach, participants for the class, and a bridge line to bring you and the participants together.
There are many services that would offer you a bridge lines for free and other services, such as recording (if you need it) for a fee. One of such web sites is https://www.freeaudioconferencing.com

The companies that provide bridge lines only provide bridge lines. They don’t advertise your teleseminar to people. This means that you need to market your teleclass online in order to get participants, and make money by teaching teleclasses.

To fill up your teleclasses, you need to market your teleclasses online. I teach many popular, sold-out teleseminars, and here is what I recommend you do:

– Be very clear on your target market. You need to know exactly you want to invite to the teleseminars; without knowing this, you will not be able to market your teleseminars effectively.

– Create a mailing list for your business. Offer a special gift to everyone who subscribes (a free report, ebook, audio recording, etc). Send out interesting, helpful newsletter on a regular basis and let the subscribers know about your upcoming teleclasses.

– Start a blog for your business, and let your blog readers know about your teleclasses.

Hi, everyone

If you have ever created a new product – ebook, special report, audio recording, teleseminar – you know that you need to start marketing it even before it is realeased. And, you need to create buzz – on the launch date of the product, and then beyond the launch date as well.

The best time to create buzz for your product is before and DURING the launch phase. So, what do you do to create buzz and how do you get people interested in your new product?

A few weeks from now I will be launching a very exciting new product. I haven’t seen a product like this offered by anyone else, although there is a lot of demand for it. Watch this space for more information about it in the near future!

I will be sharing the behind-the-scenes information on this launch, tips and lessons learned with members of MarketingSalad.com. Join us now to see how to launch a product, what to expect during launch and how to get people excited about your product.

One of the things I discussed during the Online Networking That Gets Results Teleseminar last week was the importance of being a consistent online networker.

Being consistent to me means networking at least once a week (preferably 2-3 times a week), so that people you network with get to know you, learn about you and your business, trust your expertise and ultimately are able to become your clients or refer others to you.

Sometimes during my online networking I meet people who I call drive-by networkers. These are the people who you see networking online once in a blue moon. When they network, the really network. They spend an entire day or two visiting different online networks, making a splash, creating a flurry of activity, chatting with people and then disappearing from the networking radar until the next blue moon makes its appearance.

Drive-by networkers become active in networking when they have a lull in business. Naturally, they come to the startling realization that they need to do some business development. They jump into networking full force, and spend a day (or two, or three) networking online non-stop. Then they get bored or get a call from a client or decide to use alternate business development strategies and disappear until the next time business is slow.

Being a drive-by networker is a complete waste of time and resources for a variety of reasons:
When you network once every few months, no one remembers you. Every time you come to the same online network, you have to spend the time re-introducing yourself, instead of jumping right into networking.
The best way to gain leads and clients while networking is to be accepted as an expert in your field. You must have a public track record in the field before you can be considered an expert. People generally have a hard time remembering your track record if they can barely recall who you are.
A drive-by networker spends days at a time networking. As useful as networking is, this get very boring very fast. This is reflected in drive-by networker’s posts: they show no signs of life and are incredibly dull. This is only natural — imagine spending a few days doing exactly the same thing over and over again.Remember – don’t be a drive-by networker. Instead, network on a regular basis to get to know others and create business relationships that will last for a long time.

There is definitely a shift from just one-on-one coaching to one-on-one coaching + products approach. This is the approach I use and the approach I teach to my own clients, many of who are coaches.

Here are a few reasons why:

– There is a finite number of hours in a week, and this number of hours limits the number of one-on-one clients I can take on. And remember, working with someone one-on-one is not just the coaching time. I also spend the time to prepare for every session. I also provide unlimited e-mail support in-between sessions. All of this takes time.

– I want to help as many people as possible, and that is just not possible if I were to offer one-on-one coaching only. Again, there are just so many hours I can spend working, which limits the number of people I can work with.

– Not all of my clients can afford the one-on-one rates, but many more can afford my teleseminars, e-books and group online business coaching program. Therefore by offering the products, I am helping more people and am able to bring in more revenue.

– Reaching more people really helps me in the long run. My one-on-one clients refer people who buy my products, and someone who bought my e-book a while ago referred a potential coaching client.

– My products help me create marketing opportunities with others – through joint teleseminars, my affiliate program, and lots of other cooperative marketing opportunities and events. I would not be able to do lots of these things (and bring in revenue!) if I only had my one-on-one coaching to offer.

I enjoy one-on-one work I do, and I love to see my clients succeed. But having products helps me have more flexible hours, not work as much, and help many more people.

P.S. Want to learn all about creating products and having multiple streams of income? I teach everything I know to members of MarketingSalad.com, the online business coaching community

Since I am the online business coach, 95% of my clients find me online, and quite a few of them find me through online networking. I have also got a lot of publicity for my business, was interviewed, and got lots of great contacts through my online networking connections. Here are my recommendations to help you get clients when networking online:

– Spend the time and network on a regular basis. Networking is not a one time action, rather, it is a long term process. When you put in the time, you will get the results you are looking for.

– Find good places to network for you and your business. Who is your target market? Where does your target market network? Find those places and participate on a regular basis.

– Always use a signature when networking online. If you post a good, thoughtful message in the group you participate in, people reading it would like to learn more about you. This is where your signature comes in – make sure that it provides enough incentive for the reader to click on the link in the signature and learn more about you.

If you are spending time networking online and not getting any clients, you are not alone. Many people I have talked to tell me that they spend 5-10 hours a week networking online, and have nothing to show for it.

If you are not getting any clients online, you might be networking in the wrong groups or not networking effectively.

Join me for the Online Networking That Gets Results Teleseminar and learn all of the following:

* The very first step you must take to establish yourself as a credible expert, while networking online

* The critical information on dramatically increasing the number of people visiting your web site, after they encountered you during online networking. Almost everyone I have met gets this wrong.

* Little known ways to create online deals and opportunities that will help you promote your products and services to a bigger audience

and much more.

The teleseminar will take place on August 31st at 8pm Eastern and it costs just $19 to attend.

I was recently asked about multiple streams of income for coaches. Creating multiple streams of income is a passion of mine, and something that I teach to my clients. I think that different income streams is the best way to leverage your time and earn more money. Many streams are about packaging your knowledge into different Here are a few diffent income streams that I recommend to my clients:

– Ebooks and Special Reports. Many professionals package their knowledge into an ebook, and/or create shorter special reports on smaller topics.

– Group coaching – lower fees per person, and better profits for you.

– Teleseminars. A great way to teach your target market in groups, and get them familiar with what you have to offer.

– In person workshops.

– Subscription web sites.

– CDs.

– Audio recordings.

– Ecourses.

– Selling other people’s products.

There are many different ways to re-package what you already know, and create products from it. I teach members of MarketingSalad.com how to take their knowledge and turn it into products and passive income streams.

I had lots of fun teaching Article Marketing for Profits Teleclass last week. One of the things we discussed was the importance of linking directly to your product, newsletter, special bonus, from the resource box of the article.

Why should you link directly to the product, instead of the main page of your web site? As you know, I always recommend to make your marketing as targeted as possible. You can do that very easily with article marketing – when you write an article on a particular topic, and offer a gift or a product in the resource box, related to the article’s theme, you are doing targeted article marketing. Since your article reader is interested in the article’s topic, offering a gift or a product related to the article increases the possibility that the reader will actually click on the link in the resource box, and learn more about your product.

Let’s say your wrote an article about time management. The best bet for your resource box is to offer a link to a free or a for-fee product of yours about time management. If your article is on time management, and you offer a link to a product on networking, you will not get as many takers.

You can get lots more article marketing tips and tricks in my Article Marketing Audio Guide.

Every time I speak about online marketing, I get many questions on how to get their name out there, get more newsletter subscribers and clients. To achieve many of these things I use article marketing. Here is why:
– Your Potential Clients Search For Your Online Before Hiring You. Many people use search engines to find information about professionals, they want to hire. If you search for my name in quotes, “Biana Babinsky”, in Google, you will find thousands of results. Many of the results are due to me writing and publishing articles online. When potential clients search for me online, these results give me credibility.

– Publishing Articles Online Promotes Your Expertise. When your potential clients read your articles, they consider you an expert. It is much easier to sell your products and services to people, who consider you an expert.

– You Can Use Your Articles To Get Better Search Engine Rankings. Better search engine rankings bring more targeted search engine traffic to your web site, and more traffic means more newsletter subscribers and more sales for your business.

Article marketing is one of my secret weapons to sell my products and services. Want to learn how I use it? Join me for the Article Marketing For Profits Teleseminar
