Two Great Seminars, One Great Location

Written by: The Grok

On January 14th & 15th, the Future Now team will be in Orlando, Florida, hosting two of our most popular marketing optimization seminars:

  • Persuasive Online Copywriting seminar & workshop — Led by two of our most popular writers, Holly Buchanan and Jeff Sexton. Learn how to write persuasive that speaks to each of your market segments. Not only for copywriters, past attendees in this class include C-level execs, marketing directors, entrepreneurs, and others who just want to improve their online communication skills.
  • Call to Action seminar — Based on his 2005 bestseller, Call to Action: Secret Formulas to Improve Online Results, Bryan Eisenberg, co-author of the book and co-founder of Future Now teaches you the principles of Persuasion Architecture™ and the tactics of conversion rate marketing optimization. This seminar helps you understand the roles of web analytics, design, usability, social media, information architecture, and search engine optimization in order to boost conversion by improving the customer experience.

For those who’ve wanted to attend these seminars in the past, but couldn’t make it to NYC, here are two great excuses to spend a day or two with us in a much warmer climate. (Not bad!) These seminars are designed to give you tailored advice on how to boost your organization’s online performance. The goal is for you to leave with specific ideas for improving your business. So, talk your family, boss, or co-workers into it — or just take a couple days by yourself — and learn about the freshest marketing optimization techniques from the pros, with Disney World, Universal Studios, and everything else Orlando has to offer at arm’s reach.

To ensure that you get all of your questions answered, only 30 seats are available for each seminar.

P.S. — As an additional gift for the holidays, we’re taking $100 off the admission price for those who register by December 15th ($350 off if you register for both seminars).

Scooped… With Only Five Spots Left

Written by: Jeffrey Eisenberg

Bryan and I have offered to perform a live 1-hour evaluation on each of a dozen websites. Some of those will be B2B lead generation, some will be B2C brick-and-mortar retailers and some will be online e-tailers. It is part of the most comprehensive 3-day seminar we offer, Wizards of Web (December 12-14), that we teach only at the non-profit Wizard Academy.

Last year we drew 142 people, standing room only, to the seminar. The money we raised helped complete the construction of Engelbrecht House.

Would you like your website to be one of those 12? We haven’t done any promotion yet. Nevertheless, mostly by word of mouth, seven spots are already taken and Roy Williams scooped us in today’s memo where he is not too loudly promoting the course by giving away an 8-page paper “The 7 Big Questions of Highly Effective Online Marketing“.

Have you read Roy Williams’ Monday Morning Memo today?

Everything You Wanted to Know About Conversion but Were Afraid to Ask

Written by: The Grok

Last week, Bryan Eisenberg was in the Bay Area, starting the first of a three-city Call To Action Seminar series. The timing was meant to give people a head-start with improving their websites by giving them lots of ideas worth testing. We’ve had some fabulous feedback (see below) and were wondering if there was anything you wanted to know before Bryan’s upcoming Call to Action seminars in New York City and Austin, TX.

Here’s what people are saying about the Call to Action Seminar:

“The Call to Action Seminar is a kick to the head [with] common sense, real-world examples and hilarious business anecdotes. Bryan’s down-to-earth presentation style keeps the depth of information easy to understand. We covered everything from pig sperm to friggin’ tanks!”
-Scott McClintock

“It is a real Call to Action! Join the movement to rid the world of bad websites. You will walk always with more action items than any meeting – but with a willingness to get started. The results are clear and the value is real.”
-Sindy Braun

“Whether you think your website is about as good as it can be, or that it is as good as a pile of rocks, you will walk away with valuable tools to improve your site.

“I thought I knew everything about capturing visitor traffic and funneling from calls to action … I was wrong. I recommend this class to anyone who wants to take a fresh approach .. common sense at its best.”
-John Harned

“From click to conversion… A must have course for any online developer, designer or just plain enthusiast. You’ll never look at another web site the same; in fact, you may just run away laughing!”
-Tony Dunn

“I went from ‘Hmmm…’ to ‘Oh, I got it!’ Everyone that is in web marketing should take this course.”
-Christine Buk

“Problems with conversion rates? Fuggedaboudit! In this class you can immediately apply to convert site visits to sales. I highly recommend it.”
-David Bergen

“It’s all about the brilliance! From how to pick a diamond, to bad Burberry Jackets, I learned how to pick apart any website, just so I can make mine better. From Future Now, Inc. the Call to Action Seminar gave me the insight I need to never look at websites the same way again.”
-Karri Chamberlain

“This was a great seminar that compliments the book, Call To Action. If you haven’t read it, go and buy it now!”
-Andrew Chan

“Although Web Analytics is Coremetrics’ business, Bryan Eisenberg taught us how to Drive Persuasive Momentum through our clients sites and our own!! Using his ideas and coupling that with Web Analytics will help you to drive a lot of success in 2007 and beyond.”
-Tim Schaeffer

We can’t wait to see responses from the next ones. Will one of them be yours?

Web Analytics Association Training Day - May 6th, 2007

Written by: Bryan Eisenberg

The Web Analytics Association (WAA) opens the door to the art & science of web analytics.

You will be primed and ready to absorb everything the Emetrics Summit has to offer.

Following its great success with the online courses given through the University of British Columbia and the WAA Training Day last October at Emetrics Summit in Washington D.C., the WAA is bringing four new half-day workshops to this year’s Emetrics Summit in San Francisco.

Morning:
Introduction to Web Analytics
or
Web Analytics for Site Optimization

Afternoon:
Online Marketing Campaign Measurement
or
Creating and Managing the Analytical Business Culture

Your instructors are people who’ve been doing web analytics for years; people who have been involved with the WAA from the beginning, and people who have helped numerous clients understand the fundamentals of tracking click-throughs, page views and revenues.

Today’s organizations know the importance of the Internet for supporting sales and marketing, facilitating orders and supplies across the value chain, and reinforcing the corporate brand and market position. To achieve truly productive results online, business managers need a solid grounding about the strategies and tactics that support web analytics.

Attend one or two of these workshops and be well positioned to get the most from the jam-packed Emetrics Summit that follows. Return to your workplace primed to put everything you’ll have learned into practice, immediately.

Present, Persuade, Powerful…

Written by: Bryan Eisenberg

If I were allowed to share only three words to describe what Bert Decker is all about, there they are.

I had the privilege of spending a few hours catching up with Bert in his hometown of San Francisco. Bert’s been busy. He’s just agreed to be one of the judges of the World’s Best Presentation contest with Guy Kawasaki, Garr Reynolds and Jerry Weisman. He’s coaching quite a few execs and organizations on how to create communications experience. What we do for marketing and websites, Bert and crew do for presentations. The best news is he told me he’s doing one of his Communicate to Influence seminars in New York City on April 23-24th, and has just 4 seats left. (Sorry I didn’t share with you earlier. One of those seats will be going to one of my staff; we’ve sent others in the past.) Don’t miss it if you are going to be in NYC on those days!

Discover how you can better present, persuade and deliver powerful communications.
