What can we learn from IM Webinars?

Are Internet marketing Webinars useful and informative? Some sites encourage you to simply sign and attend a Webinar on a specified date. Any member here that has derived multiple benefits from attending Webinars?

    The webinars I've attended have usually been nothing more than pitch-fests disguised as information, but that doesn't mean webinars can't be useful.

    It depends on the person who's presenting the webinar, and what they're presenting. One thing you might want to look for are webinars that are "live case studies", where the presenter actually does what they're telling you to do, so that you can see what they're teaching actually works.

    I find it better if I can get on one where I can get the recording. If no recording becomes available, no biggie.

    I have sat through hours of rubbish before now, and got little out of them.

    Some are good, but more, especially the ones from people you don't already know are going to be selling you something, and often with little additional value.

    I can think of maybe 3 webinars that I have got anything out of, and they're all from paid products.

      Some of the webinars are good and some are not. I am only talking about webinars that are offered during a promotion, not webinars that are offered as part of the courses.

      Most (non-course) webinars are promotional. Even though I know that I will often watch webinars by certain marketers. These are the marketers that always tell you upfront that there is going to be an offer at the end but that even if you do not buy you will get a real value from th webinars.

      A few marketers come to mind: Peter Garety, Jason Fladlien, Chris Munch. I know that there are others but none come to mind. Their webinars are value packed and your time is not going to be wasted even if you don't buy.

      Cheers

    I attended a webinar before and the guy was telling his whole life story about how he rose to fame online... and basically said at the end that: "If you want to duplicate my results, buy my $2,000 course and sell it to people offline. You will have the rights to it."

    I didn't learn a thing. But i have confidence that there alot of other webinar promoters who actually give good advice. Like Yanik Silver.

    Not worth the time, IMO. Sure, there are things that you can learn from a seminar, but as others have said, the signal-to-noise ration is pretty bad. Better to spend your time actually doing something to promote your business.

    Never have actually done a webinar - not really at least.

    But the conversions are smokingly high if you do. Why do you think all these dudes charge $997 for pitching their products on them?

    That’s why you see this and that webinar every day it seems (yes, even Sunday I have seen).

    Every time I see a webinar advertised in my email I know there is an expensive product being promoted at the end.

    Ummmm I go to 2-3 hr webinars every Wednesday that are all FREE. Hosted by 6- & 7- figure IM earners. They teach nothing but valuable info. They don't try to sell you anything at all...Matter of fact, the webinar coming up this Wednesday is going to be "How to Stay Outta Facebook Jail"...because alot of ppl are being banned from sending friend requests and even messaging people or posting in groups. So it's slowing that person's business down because they mainly market on FB.

      Maybe webinars from the Warrior Forum. I'm talking bout the main IM launches
      that promote webinars.

        I don't go to Warrior Forum webinars. I go to webinars within my lead generation company.

    Most webinars result in some kind of sales pitch at the end. However, they usually offer valuable information near the middle of the webinar to make their products and services appear more valid.

    There is good webinars and bad webinars. Same thing with emails. Doing a webinar can be a great tool to build better relationships with your customers and prove your value, and you don't have to sell anything on them to accomplish both of those things.

    Nothing wrong with selling something on a webinar also, but only when it's done right.

    Webinars are an amazing way to learn things at a faster pace. You get hands on learning and in some instances, you get to ask questions. There are free and paid webinars, all have their benefits and perks.

    I know of a guy that hosted a webinar of how to make passive income that would make you a lazy millionaire. He charged around $8,000 per seat and sold about 100 seats.

    Video learning is becoming the new thing!

      Most webinars that you go to that will be very informative, with lots of information are like this...

      Company has a product, the product is free to promote. The webinar is used to learn more information about the product, the attendees will be promoting. They will both show, and explain methods for promotion.

      Try to help the affiliate group as much as possible, so both are making money.

      Those types of webinars tend to be very info oriented.

      The ones you typically receive in email, will just be fluff then product push.

      But you will find some people that will reveal a method they use. They reveal exactly how they accomplish the method. Then push a tool to make the method much easier to scale. Those can typically be good, since they will get you thinking.
