How about arranging with organisations whose people you do the presentation for, to buy a copy of the book (maybe produced as a pocket version) for each participant? If this was one of your 'standard terms' and you could get them produced (maybe with corporate branding to that organisation) for a couple of quid each, that would spread the word nd make a few shillings for you?

If you were running a 'public' course yourself, the price of attendance could include a copy of the book? Also a programme of future courses in case colleagues, friends, families etc were interested in attending, having heard so much about it!

(Should help with the nine a day too)

Marry me and have my babies:rotfl::rotfl:

Why do you never see the most obvious solution??? I think I need to have a quick rewrite and then find the pennies for another quick print run sometime soon.

The bundling is a brilliant idea - was thinking of bundling up the "Student Survival Day" with

• An e-book version of the book
• a weekly revision course if apropriate
• a 30 day countdown to your exams programme (or write that damn PHD programme)
• a "build your own SSG Kit" manual

As well as a full day doing Mind Mapping, Memory,Speed Reading and Study Skills with your truly.

??????????????? worth £80 ???????????????:D

Just managed to delete a long post. I hate using this laptop sometimes...

To the lovely Karen who sent me the Slimming World CD - you totally rock! Thank you. Hubby and I are going on the diet tomorrow, and this time, the food changes are forever. Thanks, from the bottom of my heart!

Had a lovely weekend celebrating Mum's 70th Birthday and an early knees up for my Dad as well. It was expensive, but really fun. So now back to real life and drawing in the old pursestrings again.

I can't beleive I had 17 pages to read when I got back after 2 days. 2 days?!

Right, need to feed the hordes or else there will be revolution in the Rickett house!

If you're talking about Students (drink too much, daytime TV, lounging around) rather than students (of yours) then it might be worth asking the NUS to do a national group rate. In that case £80 sounds reasonable but they would advise; could be a co-branded event with them (in which case you had better start cloning yourself!)).

Businesses wouldn't blink at £500 a day per delegate (or even much more in some cases) at a top hotel with good lunch. Maybe you could provide this course under a trade organisation's/trade union's umbrella/branding so they market it and pay you a chunk of the bunce. I know a couple who run a programme of events and courses for their members.

I can't see any limit to the opportunities for selling this stuff really. Depends how hard you want to work and whether you want this as 'your job' or whether you want to build an organisation doing it.

Just got back from helping out at a Mind, Body and Spirit Festival. So much said to me today resonates with the previous thread and this one. Lots of talk of playing and Cosmic Ordering etc etc. Off to make a cuppa and maybe finish last thread tonight. Maybe I can get to the challenges soon.

...my presentation of the technique is less "look at this great technique" and more of a "look what cool things you can do with this technique" Bit of a different focus - more a "beneftting the student" thing

You might think about 'this course will help your company make more money' as a more compelling sales point? I would see corporates as your primary market...

My thoughts....

Go for a two pronged attack

One training event for the little guys like myself priced around the £80 mark per participant, affordable for an event to put our kids on.

Then a corporate training event which includes all the above but also maybe a half hour telephone one to one personal mind map session with each client...charge what you like for that...:D

I like the idea of 'bundling up', but I think you should also consider what people may want to buy as extras.

Some of the things like the ebook and the revision course could be things that would sell effortlessly from a website (without any intervention from you).

There will be students who will come to a study day and 'get it', there will be others who want to go over the content again with more help.

I am sure that those who attend will tell friends and if they can't get to see you (say you are on a world tour ) they will want to access to information.
