^^ lol.

It is dumb. Have these seminars even been proven to help people? I don’t understand them.

I don’t know how you can be so ‘down’ on yourself that you don’t want to do anything with your life. It makes no sense to me.

It’s not anything to do with being down on life, guy.

They employ marketing strategies and it’s a good way to network as well. Not dumb. Smart.

fuck seminars. i can’t stand these morons in their cars. not a single one of those assholes would be missed. I’m leaving early so I don’t get caught up leaving, if i had known about this (read: if my head wasn’t in my ass) i would’ve just called in. Traffic stresses me the fuck out.

I was making a general statement about such ‘self help’ seminars.

Also, this is a motivation seminar. What does that have to do with marketing? I can understand the networking part since you are bound to talk to people there but marketing? To me it sounds like one massive therapy/Dr. Phil session.

If anything, they should have done it on Saturday or something.

Click the link and look at some of the people on the line up. Very Successful business people. They do these seminars to help people in the office get motivated and be positive about what they are doing and give strategies on how to achieve more success, make sales, and build relationships.

I’ve been in sales for a few years now. I have a strategy that works but it doesn’t work in all cases. I’m always open to hear a new strategy that works for others that gets people motivated to do. I guess you can call me cattle too, but at the end of the day I could care less because I’m in it for one reason and that’s to make more money.

In business the most valuable asset you will ever have is your knowledge base. The more you know, the more you can do and that leads to being a more efficient and valuable employee or business owner. As a business owner I value any information or advice from associates, other business owners, etc. These seminars can actually have a wealth of really good and usable information.
