You are invited to an intermediate seminar on Internet Marketing in a city
near you. This isn't for complete newbies. We're assuming that you already have a company website and aren't a complete novice, but want to fine-tune your marketing strategy so that your company can bring in new revenue from the Internet. If you are an old hand at all this or your company's Internet strategy is succeeding wonderfully, then you don't need this seminar.
This seminar is unlike most "big time" seminars you may have attended. You'll notice that the price is low by comparison. That's because of Dr. Wilson's passion to help small businesses and price his products and services accordingly.
"I am so glad I came to your conference. I learned a lot and found the environment friendly, upbeat, lively, and conducive to learning. Thanks again for putting on one heck of a program. The sparks were flying and I got a bunch of new ideas based on your topical reviews." -- Ed Corboy, Jr., M.D., AmericanBackCare.com |
Attendance is limited to a maximum of 50 in each session, though many sessions will be 25 to 35. This is so you'll be able to interact with Dr. Wilson in the discussions. It's not a lecture but an interactive learning environment in a classroom.
Dr. Wilson will speak for about 1-1/2 hours on each topic, intermixed with questions and discussion
with the participants. We want you to be able to go away with some practical ideas that you can immediately apply to your situation. Though we'll be talking about unique problems and situations of companies represented at the seminar, there won't be time for extensive one-on-one consulting during the seminar.
Each participant will receive handouts detailing the material in each lecture.
Though we're not giving away Dr. Wilson's newest book, Planning
Your Internet Marketing Strategy (Wiley, 2002), order a copy now from Amazon.com,
and bring your copy to the session to be autographed. Dr. Wilson will not
be selling the book at the seminar.
