provide an opportunity to further qualify prospects and possibly convert prospects to clients and customers. One of the most important times for the presenter, beyond the preparation time and the actual delivery time, is the day of the presentation and the opportunity that exists that day. Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach offers the following ten strategic tips, to seminar presenters to gain maximum benefits from their efforts.

Strategic Tip #1: Greet every seminar attendee as they arrive at the seminar and sincerely welcome him or her and engage him or her in some meaningful conversation.

Strategic Tip #2: Meet with the person that will introduce you and review key elements of your introduction to ensure there will be a smooth introduction.

Strategic Tip #3: Make sure that every seminar attendee registers and provides their key contact information so you can follow-up after the seminar.

Strategic Tip #4: Make sure that all seminar attendees have a nametag to facilitate you getting to know them, which is one of your primary goals.

Strategic Tip #5: Be yourself during your presentation and engage your audience. Involve the audience and ask them to interact with you.

Strategic Tip #6: Commit to demonstrating your respect for the value of time of each seminar attendee. Be sure that you end on time, or even a few minutes early.

Strategic Tip #7: Focus on your audience, rather than yourself.

Strategic Tip #8: Make sure you deliver what you promoted and promised and focus on discussing specific problems and solutions pertaining to the attendees.

Strategic Tip #9: Develop an effective and memorable closing to your seminar presentation. This could be in the form of a quotation, a “catchy” phrase with advice, a thought provoking question, a challenge, a creative handout, or a special and unique gift.

Strategic Tip #10: Provide an evaluation sheet for the seminar at the conclusion of the event. Be sure to offer the opportunity for attendees to request an appointment with you and place that offer on the evaluation sheet.

Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach encourages you to using the power of seminar presentations as a strategic marketing tool to grow your business.

Re: Business Women Peer Mentoring Spotlight - Hi Tami, Have you reviewed other comparable sites and coaches? I think that you will find that they have positioned themselves a bit more 'out there', and they dont focus on cheap pricing as the key benefit. I think your copy needs to be much tighter with a focus on the key features and BENEFITS that group coaching provides. Look at The Strategic Coach model etc. Your bio needs to be stronger if you are going to be pitching business development and leadership development. Also, have you put together a strategy for list building and promotions? how many subscribers do you have currently. Local networking as well as grouping some of your existing clients into the first BETA group might help. People dont like 'NEW" services because it comes off that they will be the guinea pigs. Those are my initial thoughts for now. Hope it helps. I'll try and spend some more time reviewing over the weekend and get back to you! Jude
Business Innovation - Hi Simon If you can finish off the Business Plan and think about your strategic direction or how you are going to use your product to convince people it's a great idea, it will set the foundation for your programming project. You see, when you are looking for funding you will need a Business Plan and Strategic Plan that will convince companies to invest into your new idea. Has anyone achieved this idea before using another industry besides health and fitness that you know of? You should also design some mockups as a "preview" for your programming project. This will also help reduce your programming costs as everyone will know exactly what you want if you have detailed mockups already completed including any functionality you require. Starting mockups for websites and software applications on paper is the best way if you're not a guru in graphic editing software.
