Editor's Notes
- In case you aren’t familiar with MBO Partners, at a high level we make it easy for independent consultants and their clients to work together. We do this by running a variety of back office functions for our consultants so they can focus on the work they love. We take care of taxes, invoicing, contracts and business insurances. We also work hard to provide value to independents by creating a wide range of educational content that is featured in our Independent’s Guide portion of our website, as well as in our webinar series!
- Some quick housekeeping before we begin – here you can see the webinar controls – please click the button with a small screen icon to move into full screen mode and don’t hesitate to send questions across throughout the presentation by typing them into the box shown here. We will answer them all at the end of the presentation. I would, however, like to answer the most common question we get now: Yes, we will be emailing you a recording of this webinar. You should see it in your inbox early next week.
- A new feature on our webinar series is live tweeting! Please note today’s hashtag and feel free to send across questions and comments through the presentation. We will be monitoring it and will also answer these questions at the end of the presentation. You can also follow our speaker, Jennifer at the Twitter handles you see here.
- I trimmed down the content on this slide a bit, make sure it still hits your main points. I thought some of the words you could just talk through so it wasn’t so busy
- TREND The new currency is being found through digital relationships. It can be compounded however, offline (or via video.) In an attempt to use less text, I put an image here since there was just one point to be made.
- Does this divider work?
- Made some text edits on this page, please review. I may be going in the wrong direction, but the point felt a little unfinished.
- I moved this section after the portion about personal brand because the focus was still on the individual, if this messes up your presentation, you can change.
- Talk through this one. Here is your text: If I went to your facebook now..does it exude the fact that you are an incredible thought leader, advisor, consultant, strategist or business. industry. Can I find your phone number or videos on your page? I hope so.
- Tailored copy for an independent – they don’t have companies or teams.
- How do you post a video with Slideshare?
- Please define social clout – I’m not confident the audience will understand it. Maybe put it on it’s own slide before this one? I will let you decide.
- Is this applicable to our audience since they are selling services, not products via ecommerce?
- Can we add tips on how to stay relevant – sites to find information, newsletters to subscribe to, companies that give informational webinars, etc. I think everyone wants to do it, they just don’t know how.
- Pleae define #PUTP (I had to google it)
