"I won't go so far as to say the Summer of Soul changed my life... but almost." Judith

The 2009-2010 Winter of Soul Seminar Series kicks off in November with a couple of timely shows created specifically to help you get ready for your Happy Next Year. We'll then leave you to your holiday celebrations and pick back up in early January with eight more 60-90 minute teleseminar* programs scheduled over the winter months. As with the Summer of Soul, these are content-rich sessions, not just bait-n-switch infomercials for anyone's products or services. All programs are recorded, and provided to participants after each show.

Even if you've missed a show or two or three, it's not too late to join in. Upon registration, you'll receive links to the recordings of past shows, so you won't have missed a thing! 

Like everything at SWS, your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. If you aren't happy, we aren't happy. And we'll make it right.

How much for the whole package? It's $59. At the risk of sounding like a cheesy sales pitch, that's just $0.10/minute for nearly 800 minutes of Soul!

The Winter of Soul Schedule
Creating Your 2010 Business Plan - Everyone knows you're supposed to have a written plan. Have you done yours? No? Let's do it together in this kick-off to the 2009-2010 Winter of Soul. November 18th; 7pm Eastern

B.R.A.N.D.'ing with Tom Gosche - Back by popular demand from the Summer of Soul, Tom Gosche, branding expert, joins us to share his unique perspective on personal branding that actually reflects who you are... and inspires you to become the best YOU you can be. It's good stuff. December 2nd; 7pm Eastern

BONUS SESSION!
Socializing for Introverts - We introverts are terrible small-talkers. We tend to enjoy our own company to the company of others. Networking events intimidate us. We'd rather die than risk annoying anyone. But we can be extremely effective in the social realm as long as we stay IN our comfort zones. December 12th, 11:30 am Eastern

Rethinking the List(en)ing Presentation - Do you really need a formal listing presentation? Maybe... but maybe not. A panel discussion on various approaches to seller interviews. January 9th; 11:30 am Eastern

Alternatives to Referral-Begging - It's really not necessary to beg, bribe or even "remind" your friends to send you referrals. In fact, this behavior might actually be counterproductive to your goal of GETTING referrals from the people you know. I'll show you what to do instead. January 16th, 11:30 am Eastern

Open House Strategies - A panel discussion with four master open-housers on effective techniques to attract visitors, build rapport, get valid contact information (and permission to use it), and much more. January 23rd; 11:30 am Eastern

Selling with Her Soul - For Ladies Only (and the men who love them) - A potentially politically INcorrect discussion on how there's nothing wrong with being feminine in today's gender-neutral world. No, you DON'T have to become a man to succeed; quite the opposite in fact! Mary Beth Bonacci joins me for what I promise will be a fascinating show. February 6th, 11:30 am Eastern

Why Isn't My Listing Selling? - ARGHGH! Why isn't my listing selling? I priced it right, made up a pretty brochure and I hold open houses every weekend! What else can I do? (And no, the answer isn't always "reduce the price.") February 13th, 11:30 Eastern

Social Media and Your Sphere of Influence - Don't spam your sphere! ...and other tips for effectively using social media in your sphere of influence business model. February 20th; 11:30 am Eastern

Beyond Virtual Tours - Virtual Tours aren't just for listings anymore! My friends at CPG Tours and I have come up with nearly 20 promotional uses for virtual tours outside of marketing your listings. Easy-as-pie to put together and a lot of fun to distribute. March 6th, 11:30 am Eastern

Don't Be Dorky, Be YOU! - Why is it that real estate agents, many of whom are otherwise fascinating creatures, insist on being dull as dirt in their written communications? You don't have to be a professional writer to create interesting letters, newsletters or online profiles that will make the reader smile... instead of yawn. March 10th, 7:00 pm Eastern

 Sound good? Hope you'll join us!
