What are the different sources of revenue you have? You need to determine these and which one is your “money-maker.” There are four different types of revenue within the seminar business. Each has a different position to making you money. When I plan seminars, I take each of these four streams of revenue and determine where the money goes from each one.

Determine Who Your Target Market Is!!!!

Ashley Beck — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 22:04:50 +0000

Determining your target market is a must! You must define who will buy your products and/or come to your event. Who is your audience? What interest and/or problems do they have?

Hotels & Meeting Rooms for Seminars!!

Ashley Beck — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 21:59:49 +0000

While I was working on the contract with the hotel, I realized that you can get things you need or want. You just have to ask. Don’t be outrageous. But if you need or want something, ask. More than likely, the hotel will work with you and help accommodate your needs.

One thing that we wanted for a seminar I was working on was the discounted room rate to be available a few days prior and a few days after the event so that our attendees could stay a few days and vacation.

I wantd to remind you of a few things when you are signing contracts:
