If you've never before attended one of John's seminars,
you're in for a treat.
Don't you hate it when you take a day off work to hear a speaker
and at the end of the day you still don't know "exactly" what to do?
He or she was entertaining and informative enough, but a week later
you don't know how to put what he said to use?
And even if you could, you can't IMAGINE it making you any money?
Not at these seminars, folks. Our intent is to
make you THRIVE! WITHOUT charging you an arm and a leg for the privilege.
Most presenters just give you a laundry list of choices to make.
John gives you the complete picture:
- what is possible,
- what is profitable,
- what is best supported,
- what is reasonable for the future,
- what is fun.
Frequently, you get software or other resources on the spot, to get you
started that day.
Seminars are offered only a few times a year, so don't miss the next one.
There are two major seminars (with a discount to anyone attending both),
and specialized seminars for Associations and Non-Profits:
- Visit the Internet
a three-hour, weeknight-or-Saturday Introductory Session,
useful as a general introduction to
the Internet, but much more. Not just a tour, but how to make it all
work. Emphasis will be on gaining access and using other people's
resources well, but substantial time will be spent introducing the basics
of developing business connections. Where to find every kind of information,
do research, read history and literature,
visit museums, plan travel, get software instantly, make business contacts.
Appears under the name
Access the World! How to Get Connected, Find Anything, and Make Money on the Internet's World Wide Web.
$0 to 49, depending on materials (possibly less through certain organizations).
If you attend the full-day seminar, you may apply this entire amount to
the second seminar, right up to the last minute. In other words,
if you attend the full-day one afterward, this one is free. Come to this one,
then decide.
- How to Set up Shop on the Internet
The Full-day Business Session, for businesses who want to
learn the best ways of using the Internet as a tool.
Although infrequent, sessions are offered
both on Saturday and a weekday, for your scheduling convenience.
Appears under the names
Presence! Establishing yourself on the Internet's World Wide Web,
Selling to the World, and
How Businesses Make Money on the Internet.
$250, but
you may apply the full price paid for the Introductory seminar to this one:
if you attend this one, the previous one is free.
- How Associations and Non-Profits Should Use the Internet
The Full-day Non-Profit Session, for Associations and other
non-profits who want to disseminate information, build donations, and provide
valuable public service at the same time. Sessions are offered privately.
Rate varies with group size. As always,
you may apply the full price paid for the Introductory seminar to this one:
if you attend this one, the previous one is free.
Special seminars may be arranged for industry groups and associations.
For example, in his Internet Seminar before the State Bar Association
in Lake Placid in July, John discussed
- up-to-the-minute information on best ways to get physical access
to the Internet,
- what to do when you get there,
- how to perform several searches for legal information -- FREE,
- how to use the new World Wide Web medium to promote your
own law firm (he should know -- he designed the Melvin & Melvin
home page (see the Offer page for more information about this site),
described by several attorneys as the best they have ever seen),
- how to avoid looking foolish when you send e-mail,
- how to optimize your time,
- how to avoid creating a Web Home Page that fails
immediately because of simple, obvious mistakes.
(See "Opinion: Web Page Design".)
Seminar Style
John's seminars are known for their combination of general world-view and
pinpoint focus on what will make the difference in your work. You quickly
find yourself comfortable, directed, and looking forward to an adventure, all
at the same time.

"Knowing all about the Internet will not make you successful.
Indeed, it may cause you to waste extraordinary amounts of time.
My approach is strategic:
What will make you more capable, happier, wealthier?
What's the best way to get there, even starting from zero?"
|
You are invited to ask questions and contrast opinions. You are always welcome
to improve the result for all participants, if you can. Many people have
remarked that "Donohue isn't like most geeks -- he can talk!"
There is a remarkable lack of ego in the room, so any question can be asked.
At one brief presentation in Fulton, evaluations were returned by the
audience:
TOTAL: 51
Excellent: 42
Good: 9
Fair: 0
Poor: 0
Bad: 0
The following notations were added:
"Great" (3 times), "Very Interesting", "Dynamic", "Helpful advice woven into a humorous program",
"Moved",
"Excellent speaker, interesting presentation, and kept everyone smiling
throughout the presentation",
"Creative presentation -- super, really -- enjoyed him."
|
And in EVERY case, if you are not completely satisfied, right up to
the end of the presentation, you may have all of your money back, no questions
asked.
