What are the 8 most humiliating mistakes made when they are hosting teleseminars, and how can almost anyone learn to avoid them?

When people are hosting their teleseminars, sometimes they are too careless to have some silly mistakes. These mistakes can decrease the rates of tele-registrants coming to the call and listen to live. These can also lead people drop off the call. Sometimes these mistakes can be very small, but they are still important to be noted before or during the call. Avoiding these mistakes can help you build trust with your tele-registrants, help your listeners develop their habits of listening to your LIVE teleseminar.

  1. Didn’t provide the correct date and time

Date and time of the teleseminar are the most important features on the website. Giving the wrong date and time, will result in situation where there is speaker no audiences or with audience but without speaker.

  1. Didn’t provide the exact dial-in number

When a dial-in number is provided at the thank you page after the registration page of the teleseminar, the tele-registrants will take down the dial-in number. During the live event, when they want to get into the call, they fail to do so, as the dial-in number provided wrong.

  1. Give the wrong passcode

There are some teleseminars that don’t need to enter the passcode. If you need people to give the passcode as to listen to the teleseminar, passcode is another important feature for a teleseminar. Typing the wrong passcode at the thank you page can block your tele-registrants to fail to dial-in for the call.

Some times, if the passcode provided is correct, but it is the passcode for the host not the guests. Your guests can still dial-in successfully and listen to your teleseminar. But if they didn’t mute their phone, that telesminar will be a noisy call, having a noisy background. Your audiences can be listening to your call at any places, like bedroom, living room, or even kitchen.

  1. No Opt-in Page

An opt-in page or a shy-yes page or a squeeze page, is a page where people get registered to teleseminars. This is where you can build your highly responsive online database. Your list is your most treasure asset for your online business.

  1. No follow up or reminder

A follower series of email or reminder emails set in your autoresponder system, your tele-registrants can be reminded about the teleseminar. On these emails, include the dial-in number, the passcode, the website URL, date and time. This can get people to attend the teleseminars.

  1. Didn’t start on time

Time is very important. Start on time is a way to build integrity and trust with your tele-registrants. Starting late in a teleseminar can get you loose your tele-registrant coming on the call. 30 second of silence on teleseminars can kill the listenership.

  1. Immediately start the call with delivering content

For the first 5 minutes, it should be an introduction instead of the content. This is because there might be people getting into the call late, not on time. If so, they will miss out the earlier content. Never dive into the calls with content. For the introduction, tell them who, how, why. Who are you? How this call come around? Why this is happening? These are the context. Context is decisive not the content.

  1. No handouts

No handout or study guide or notesheet, is another big mistake. Having it can add more value to your audience. Always remember, wealth is leverage x value. The notesheet is to let your audiences fill in the blank, a guideline for the teleseminar, a physical note to keep. It can be one of the ethical bride for the teleseminar to get people register for the teleseminar.
