Hey guys I can tell you from experience about organizing a seminar or conference to produce SFI affiliates. In August 2012, I hosted "Platinum Celebration - Achieving the Dream with SFI." There were only about 8 of us there but there were several affiliates from Florida and 2 from Arkansas. As it turns out, Bing Obaldo was going to come but decided that he wouldn't for personal reasons.

First of all, you need to have a 'celebrity'. In other words, some one who is well known

Organising a seminar advertiser your business. Firstly get a hired motivational speaker and put him through your business. Then send out invitations, fliers, handbills etc. making sure you tell your respondents to call and book their seats. Get all materials in graphic forms and prepare audio visual materials for your audience. You are good to go.

To organize a seminar, you will need to have a working knowledge about SFI. This would put you in a position of advantage. Secondly, you will need to have a good venue that is comfortable enough for your audience. Then ensure that you have all the necessary tools and possibly power point for your presentation. This should capture all the explanations and possibly graphics. Then be very simple in your language such that all of them would understand. Finally, try to convince your audience with all

Well! Its complete project. PC, PPT,Leaflets, Seminar room, Advertising, projector etc...you need to answer many unnoticed questions. I think better build a team in the town you live.And each of your group member bring their own people and start the seminar together. And share the cost.

That depends on whether you're doing it online or offline.

If online, I recommend that you first set up an eyecatching lead capture page with a good autoresponder service.
You should be able to locate them for free or with a
thirty day trial by searching out the key words.

This way people can opt in to receive your information
and will have to give you their name and email or other info to get it.

Next, you could also offer them a free report or a

How would you go about organizing a seminar to introduce new, high-quality SFI affiliates?
Organizing a seminar to introduce new, high quality SFI affiliates requires planning and preparation. Most of the preparation must be implemented at least a few months before the actual event. I would like to address here only seminar that is centrally located probably in a town or a city with a radius of up to 200km for easy access and identification. The seminar must be done in the right atmosphere and

First of all you have to decide what type of seminar you are going to do. Skype, Webnar, Direct with people Present or one of many others.
Then you have to decide who you are going to invite. What is your Focus. SFI, Triple Clicks, ECA, or any of the many opportunities SFI Provides.
Then you have to arrange the event. I have done events for the past 30 years and planning one you really have to have all the tools and information at hand.
Plan, Plan, Plan! You can not have To Much Information.

The logistics of organizing a seminar such as selecting a suitable date and time are as follows:
1. I would prefer not to call it a seminar but rather an Information Session. People normally pay to attend a seminar while an information session is free.
2. Probe the targeted area to determine the amount of interest in your subject. No point in spending money if the interest is not substantial.
3. Decide on a date and time that would be most suitable to your audience.
4. Book a

This is good question. I plan to do a seminar like this soon enough, because I already have experience in SFI field. The thing here are important for organizing an event like this. Regarding organization:
1. I should prepare well and be ready for every kind of question /even uncomfortable/ regarding SFI and Tripleclicks and to stay behind my opinion.
2. Big base of experience, because I should lead by example, right?
3. Time of the event is important, I should know well in what area
