Mining the College Market |
One of the most lucrative, yet grossly misunderstood markets for speakers and trainers is local colleges, universities, and community colleges that provide hundreds of millions of dollars in revenues each year. One of the reasons why this market is overlooked is that it seldom, if ever, pays the kinds of mythical fees that speakers and trainers have come to believe they should command. You can make lots of dollars, but you make them a nickel at a time! If you like to do seminars and are willing to work within the guidelines and pricing policies of the colleges, you’ll find a steady stream of cash available without having to spend a fortune on marketing efforts, get on airplanes or stay in hotels in strange cities. In fact, it’s probably one of the most diverse areas of speaking available and is responsible for well over 200,000 paid programs each year. Mining the College Market™ was written, piece by piece, for myself, my partner, and my clients, who have gone on to capture over 10% of this marketplace in Southern California, as a step-by-step process that’s easy to understand and apply. It contains: · A 212 page manual with complete resources for marketing your speaking · A CD with the entire three-hour seminar, complete with narration and slides · A 174 page book plus a full hour seminar on CD (Self Publishing for the Clueless®) · A CD with over $500 worth of software for creating audio, data and written products PLUS a complete database of all the colleges and universities in California PLUS samples of the materials and advertising products referenced. Here’s a special note of consideration: If you’re serious about working in this marketplace, it takes time to get yourself booked and get inserted in college catalogs, so you're got to move NOW to make sure you don’t miss the next window of opportunity!
