Review on Truly Rich Internet Marketing Workshop by Jomar Hilario
October 3 and October 24, 2009
I must say that Mr. Hilario has made my world bigger with this workshop.
From a simple internet surfer keeping in touch with family and friends by email and the social networks, the internet for me has now grown from simply being a link but as a source and tool for business, an instrument to use in achieving a lifestyle I dream for my family.
His workshop is well-organized. The concepts are presented from the very simple and basic to the more intricate and more complex without it being overwhelming. The lessons are complemented by a written guide, a visual guide and a demonstration, then tried out / followed by the participants. And moreso, thare are facilitators who can help out on a 1-on-1 basis if one is still hard to follow the lessons. Mr. Hilario makes a lot of simple analogies that make an "internet idiot" understand. Like when he presented the concept of the the shopping cart as the marketer and Paypal as the cashier. The concept of multiple streams of income, he used KC Concepcion as a student who used to just have income from one source (mega mom) to now having income from commercials, movies, etc. The concepts are presented in a variety of ways like the importance of keywords, in a game, the participants own concept of making money online is done by partners sharing their own plans to develop blogs, into products they can sell using the aids of different websites.
It helped a lot that we were given assignments and preparations before the workshop as this facilitated understanding of the first day lessons.
Mr. hilario as a facilitator is a very good motivator. His enthusiasm and "positivism" makes you really want to learn more and more. I like it that he incorporates games, interaction among participants and even gives out "freebies" as books and magazines as tokens of good work or prizes on games.
The venue is very accesible by commute or private vehicle. Each participant has his own computer makes the lessons very personal. The food is very good and filling.
Now that I am home, he has gifted us with a copy in our thumb drive of the whole 2-day lecture and a lot lot more of what I would call "continuous education" (additional reading guides to further improve where we are now). In the workshop, he has basically spoonfed us with all the things WE HAVE TO DO TO START SUCCESSFULLY an internet business but in his "freebies" he leaves it to us further dig deep into what more we can learn. He's like the key who turned on the ignition to start the car and even gave "free" gas to further help us start going to our destination of success.
If I were to rate the whole workshop it would be a 9 / 10. Just a few comments on how to further improve the workshop:
1. The second day was a bit hard to follow because there were so many concepts to learn (that is presuming that I not so much internet knowledgeable). Maybe it would help if the participants were given a copy of the lectures to read over the week before the 2nd meeting (after the first day) so that they would have a chance to preview what lay ahead.
2. Since there are ready co-facilitators in the group, maybe it wuld be helpful that each participant is given a facilitator-partner with whom he can work closely in understanding the lessons. So that after the first day they can communicate even by email. Example, the first day lesson encouraged me to start out my own blogs and after creating about 6 blogs (Hehehe by the way you promised me a prize for that! ), I so wanted to show it to someone to comment on whether it was a good blog or how I could further improve it. I understand that there is a menotring club that would do that but a few guidelines would help, like mentoring just for the duration of the workshop. It would of course be best if Mr. Hilario could do that but because I thisnk this would be too much mentoring for 1 person of 30 or more people, his advance participants or co-faciltators maybe can help out.
3. Regarding the ONLINE mentoring Club. People would be very interested to join it but may I suggest that a "2 week to a month time allowance to decide and prepare" be given to absorb the 2 day seminar just to give the participant enough time to absorb and try out all the lessons learned and do some "tinkering and further reading" for himself and then go on to the mentoring. This would also give us time to prepare the money to pay for the additonals (IPOD, etc)
That's about all for now and I do hope that I can get to attend and take advantage of Mr. Hilario's offferings in the future. Definitely looking forward to that.
Thank you Mr. Hilario and all your staff, my world now is not only bigger but better!!!! More POWER
