    Welcome to Sold-Out Seminar Secrets Tribe. Please leave a comment below because I would LOVE to hear from you!!! Much love, Max

      I am looking forward to hear from you. I need help! I have had seminars and cannot figure out why everyone in the world does not come because I have great information to share.

  4. Lisa says:

    Fabulous, Max! You are right on with this. Having recently attended one of your sold-out seminars – and having attended MANY live events over the years – I can attest to your mastery in this arena. I experienced first-hand the kind of impact and transformation you create with your live events. My clarity, alignment, network, client base and income all shifted to a whole other level literally within 48 hours of attending your event. I am excited that you are going to teach the rest of us how to create that kind of impact and magic for our own tribes!!!

  5. Hi Max,
    I loved this video. I loved that you included all types of events, from small talks to very large events, because those small talks are really the ground work of building a seminar list. I also love your background, people of all generations remember those life changing events that started to really open the planet to different possibilities. Just being in communities of like minded people in itself is a vibrational changing experiencing. I am very excited to see the rest and be involved.

    Max,
    I always love the integrity that you share in your videos and the content you give. I am looking forward to what you will be sharing with us. I am very exhausted of the PITCH fests, etc too. I believe many are. There are a lot of things that do go on behind the scenes, having done MANY of these myself before. So, your videos will be helpful I am certain.

    My workshops and retreats are very deep transformational experiences rich in content and have the right focus for the incredible people who attend. It is my greatest delight to work with people live/in person and help them make internal shifts that will bring them to their truth and change how they experience their lives.

    I completely agree with you that events are needed so we can connect with one another and the TRIBE we desire. My next event is on May 15h and it is VERY transformational and will give the participants incredible LIFE changing skills and results. I am looking forward to what you will share…as I have many upcoming events planned this year and powerful retreat in the Fall…surprisingly, at the Chopra Center Hotel. In fact, I chose it because of the incredible energy that Chopra Center brings there! I am even using the SAME room!

    Love and Light, Brother!

  7. Rene Luijk says:

    Sounds very promising. It feels like a giant leap forward.
    Love Rene

  8. I hope this next video comes soon…I’m a sponge waiting to “soak up” some more knowledge!

  9. Terri says:

    Max, thanks for putting this information together and sharing with us. :-)

  10. Evelyn Barthelemy says:

    Thin Video was very informative and would love to have the information on how to put on a sold-out seminar.

  11. Gil says:

    Thank you for the video. Seems interesting and enjoyable.

    Looking forward to more content.

    Gil.

  12. Oriya says:

    You are kicking ass!

  13. Murray Dabby says:

    Max,
    A terrific and inspiring video. I appreciate your speaking from the heart. I appreciate your getting out this message and look forward to more.

    With Appreciation,
    Murray

  14. Jo says:

    This sounds interesting. I am anxious to see the next video.

  15. Aini says:

    Hi Max and thanks again! I’ll write you more later. Now I’m too busy but had to watch your video.

  16. Kristen Reagan says:

    Hi Man.
    In the video you talk about how to teach people to create events that is certainly not “Pitch fests whos whole intention is just to sell you something and go into other programes. Were you might gleame litle bits of info,but you definitly dont leave with the whole picture” and events that are “just another marketing vehicle way to sell you something else”. Well to be honest, this sounds like a description of Video1 to me. Except for the “litle bits of info”. In ten minutes you didnt give a single clue or piece of information that in any way resembled with what you have declared and promised it would tell. I learned absolutely nothing. I am no very curious about wether the next videos really will be free as promised. If not ill certainly see this as a fraud and a pitch fest. Not very flatering for someone claiming to be a spiritual inspirator.

    I am looking forward to Video2.

    Best regards Kristen

  17. Patricia says:

    Hey Max!
    awesome video… got me fired up. can’t wait for videos 2-4!
    (and I love the website, the message, the video production – it’s all high quality and it’s got so much energy!)
    Much love,
    P

  18. Julia says:

    Thanks for great video, Max! I am in the process of designing my first series of transformative events, so I am excited to add your insights to my toolbox. I agree with you, that many events are now pitch-fests, but I will never do them (or attend them!) I only spend my money at events that have extreme substance and deep transformative value; thus, I will always give the same for my clients. I am really looking forward to learning the ins and outs of doing it right in a streamlined, lucrative manner! Thank you for being so transparent about the status of events in our world today, what is missing and what you will specifically support us in learning. Hope all is great in Hawaii, and I am really looking forward to the next enlightening video!

  19. Russ says:

    Speechless. And that’s good.

    The story goes that when the curtain dropped on the opening night of the musical “West Side Story” there wasn’t a sound to be heard from the audience. Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim were beside themselves as second after second passed without a sound. There paced desparately, assuming they had a disaster on their hands. After what must have seemed an eternity, someone finally started a soft clap. Then another person joined in. And before long the audience had gone crazy with one of the longest standing ovations in Broadway history.

    Great work is often greeted by silence. And so it is with me.

  20. Max Simon says:

    Kristen,

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and I can hear that you’re really frustrated by the constant “bait and switch” approach that’s out there right now. Me too!!!

    YES, the next set of video are COMPLETELY FREE, and loaded full of usable content. Plus, you will receive some really valuable GIFTS as well….I promise, you will really enjoy it all.

    So do your best to stay open in your heart, and really feel into my “come-from”. If you can bring in a little trust, I know that you will gain tremendous value from this video series.

    Much love,

    Max

  21. Max Simon says:

    That’s SO COOL Julia. I’m so glad that you’re putting on your own events. The world needs YOU!! More goodness coming soon….much love, Max

  22. Russ says:

    Max, This is an excellent way to do video. What supplier do you use? Thanks.

  23. Karen Gabai says:

    This is Fantastic! I can totally feel where you are coming from in intention and it is definitely Inspiring and Valuable. Thank you for your generousity in sharing yourself and expertise so freely. WOW, this is very impressive and progressive stuff. I love it and love the Energy around it.

  24. Max Simon says:

    Russ,

    We created this entire video IN-HOUSE. Pretty cool….right?

    Max

  25. Priscilla says:

    More!

  26. Katie Carlone says:

    I too believe that there is nothing quite like the energy that can get created in a room with the right message and kindred spirits — who may have been strangers just hours before. Lives can truly be transformed. I am looking forward to learning more! Thanks so much for sharing this.

  27. Kristen Reagan says:

    Hi Again Max. And thank you for your coments! Im not frustrated at all though. More just laughing a bit at the whole industry and you having balls to dismiss the Pitch Fests and then revealing a video like that. But its kind of fun to. You sure got some balls. I am from Norway/Europe. And you would never get away with something like that over here. But still. My heart is open and im looking forward to the continuation.

    Even more love Kristen :-)

  28. Sounds really good! Hoping to learn from your experience. I have to admit, I am wondering when you are going to ask for money though . . .

  29. Max Simon says:

    Haha….thanks Kristen. And I wonder if you can see how much value truly does lie in this first video… Did you have seminars as a fundamental part of your business before you watched this? Did you notice the common thread between all global thought leaders? Is it possible that you are more excited and hopeful about putting on your own events now? Because I’ve found that new awareness is often times the greatest gift!

    Even MORE LOVE to you sweet Kristen…and some really concrete, specific, tangible tools coming to you soon in the next videos (because I know that’s what you want). :)

  30. abbie says:

    Sounds good, but I would have to agree with Kris Richards…

  31. Jeff says:

    Very cool, looking forward to the next video!

    Thanks, Max

  32. Christine says:

    Very interested… I always loved attending these type of seminars, and often thought I could do it too. Now that I have a message, and a platform, its time to move forward

  33. Donna says:

    Enjoyed hearing you last week with David Steele–really looking forward to next video. Building a personable (not via internet) type venue is right up my ally and you seem to have been there done that. Thanks for sharing!

  34. Maeve says:

    I agree with the majority on here. Thank you for providing at least some things to think about while there are many people doing the rounds of seminars that occur frequently. I have attended many seminars and recently experienced one that talked a great deal about what the training would involve if they went, but didn’t give any clue for how to generate the income that it would require to pay for it. Another I went to last weekend that provided everyone with some tools they could use immediately to totally transform their thinking even if they never bought anything. Also, a great deal was given away during the weekend. I have seen various types of live events and am starting out myself to share my message to people so I really appreciate the opportunity to learn how to do it on a non existent budget etc. as I am a lone ranger at the moment. I look forward to hearing your messsage and am grateful in advance for the content you will provide.
    Thank you so much, with love and light
    Maeve

  35. Jane says:

    That was excellent. Looking forward to the next video.

    Thanks Jane

  36. Max,
    I recently decided to play a bigger game by starting my live events with a one day in Oct. The desire to do live events has been in my heart since my first one as an attendee many years ago. I’m not waiting anymore regardless of what people say about filling a room in the is economy. The economy is not my source of abundance right?
    As I thought today about what the costs might be and plan to visit spaces in NYC next week I wondered how much to budget. Being a shoestring marketer at this point I can’t imagine finding a more valuable offering than yours right now. And because you allowed me to get to know you a bit through video one I’m ready to trust the process and believe you are coming from love and not a hidden agenda. Do I expect to be offered something of value for an exchange of money at some point by you? Yes of course.
    Great job with the music and videos too. Thanks for doing these Max and I look forward to getting to know you better.

  37. Jackie says:

    Hi Max,
    The information you will provide is exactly what I need as I prepare to launch my new book on Stress Management…..talk about synchronicity! I was just thinking about doing live seminars to teach the content of my book…and there you are telling me how to do it!
    Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  38. Karen Gabai says:

    Thank you for being transparent. And letting the world see it on a professional and public platform. The world isn’t used to seeing that. I’m even more excited to be myself now. Thanks.

  39. Intriguing. Since I am a firm believer in syncronicity, the fact that I was lead to watch this first video is making me wonder if I will be doing some live events in the near future. I am especially wondering what the divine inspiration will be!

  40. Ken says:

    I enjoyed your first video, it was captivating and full of engery… You spoke about the importance of giving the how, and that many people just give the what… I’m hoping the next video actually gives some how…

  41. Max,
    This is so awesome! Thanks for sharing this valuable information.

  42. Sharon says:

    Max, I’m in the process of completing my self-renewal book, and am already teaching seminars. However, I truly prefer the live format. I’m looking forward to your future videos — I know I will learn what I need to take my message to the perfect tribe, the one for which my book is the right message at the right time.

    thank you!!!

  43. Derek E. says:

    Max,

    I had to check out your video. After all the incredible info you shared with David Steele’s I knew you where what I’ve needed to find my tribe. Look forward to your next video.

    Thank You,

    Derek E.

  44. caroline says:

    Enjoyed this looking forward to more!!

  45. Matt says:

    Sounds good.

  46. Elena says:

    Thanks, Max. You certainly know how to get people excited about a topic. I look forward to the next video. Elena

  47. Good stuff – can’t wait to see more.

  48. Max Simon says:

    Thanks for all the energy and love everyone. Please keep sharing your thoughts! I LOVE hearing from you….

    Max

  49. Mary-Ann says:

    Hi Max, you certainly got me all excited about this, I love the idea of really giving value for money and not just a sales pitch. Even though I am in Spain, over 50, female and have no clue what I could be taking about, it still completely resonated with as if I found an answer to a question I did not know I had.
    I am very much looking forward to the next videos and have faith that the pieces of my puzzle will come together and fall into place when the time is right. All will be clear.
    Thanks for such a great concept.
    Love and prosperity to all, Mary-Ann.

  50. Essential and authentic leadership from our master Max Simon.

  51. Simon Hopper says:

    I am curious and am looking forward to the real content videos as this seemed like the ‘description’ video.
    Cheers,
    Simon

  52. Janie says:

    Well, I’m intrigued and can’t wait to hear more about the course. I will tell you that the LOUD music in the background was so distracting that I almost quit listening.

    However, I’m fascinated by the knowledge that you’re imparting…..

  53. Carolyn Gray says:

    Max,

    This was great…the video had my full attention. I can not believe someone in today’s world is being so genuine and authentic and so willing to share with others how to achieve success. I look forward to the next videos because I know they will be content rich. A-N-T-I-C-I-P-A-T-I-O-N!!

    I had the pleasure of participating in a Teleseminar you presented with David Steele– WOW, it was awesome. Thank you. Thank you.

    Carolyn Gray

  54. Sharon says:

    I really enjoyed your style of presentation as well as the content of discussion. If you are bringing what I saw on the screen to your business, I want some. Hurry with the next video ….
    Waiting for more in CA
    Sharon

  55. Darlene says:

    It is something I thought of vaguely, but never considered that I could actually do one. I am definitely waiting for the next video. Thanks for the content (and love).

  56. Thanks Max,

    I did get excited by this. I’m looking forward to the content that follows.

    I just led an Event today and would love to hear your advice on making it an even bigger success!

    With joy,
    catherine

  57. Libby Leyrer says:

    Thanks for the teaser Max- you have a lovely energy & I look forward to your next videos.

  58. This is the taster and I liked your energy so I am interested to hear the real content in your next video. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
    Jackie

  59. Jaime says:

    Hi Max,

    I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to the next videos. I enjoyed your energy and the passion that comes across! Always looking for ways to improve, grow and most importantly deliver a product that impacts and moves the world to a better place.

    All the best,

    Jaime

  60. Lumi says:

    That’s really interesting! I organize myself such a live events, unfortunately only a very few people come to it!!!! In Greece, where I live, everybody would like to do workshops, etc, but they are not really willing to pay the price!!!! And, believe me, I had to put down my prices because there are many competitors out there selling their product for nothing!
    So, how do I attract the right people for my workshops and how could I maintain the prices that I really feel are right for the knowledge and the experience I offer???
    I’m sure you’ll answer to some of my questions and I thank you from my heart!
    Love and Light, Lumi

  61. Deb Borges says:

    Perfect timing, as always.

  62. kym says:

    Let me hear more!

  63. Anna says:

    Wow Max!! Thanks for synchronizing with my vision. I have a message I need to deliver, and this idea has been forming as the best way to deliver it, but I have no clue how to do it. Now it looks like with your help, I will have the know how to go with my drive and determination, and we can bring some understanding of a complex issue to people. I’m with ya, so let’s get shining brightly:)

    Namaste,

    Anna

  64. Great capture page…you hooked me…I’m doing this now with award winning innovators and was hoping for the juice. Patience is a virtue.

  65. Sharon says:

    Hi, Max, I’m excited to hear the next videos and trust you are delivering the content I heard you say and saw on your video screeen. I am putting on a week long retreat in October and what I heard from you here is exactly the kind of venue I intent to present. In gratitude, Sharon

  66. Reggie says:

    Wonderful to meet you here Max. And I’m ready! Love your passion and vision. I’ve been wanting to do this for years. Looking forward to the “hows” coming up! Thank you! Love and greatness, Reggie

  67. Anne says:

    Okay, I’m curious. I’ve recently joined forces with another coach, and I believe we have some live events in our near futures. It would be great to shorten the learning curve on creating awesome events and particularly how we can do it with next to no budget and who we need on our team to make it happen!

  68. Audra Gutierrez says:

    Yeah I am excited!!! This event is going to be great. I look forward to attending. And great to hear from you what is possible for myself in my own event hosting. I am inspired.

  69. McKenzie says:

    I only watched this because I was promised real content. It didn’t exactly deliver. It seemed a mockery since you were complaining about events that only talk about the “what” and not about the “how.” Will the next videos have “how” content, or will they just be selling, as likewise deplored?

    I’m interested if it’s not a waste of my time.

    -McKenzie

  70. Padme A'Tea says:

    I took part on Thursday’s call and I was blown away. There was so much solid knowledge that was discussed – felt puzzle pieces fall into place. I look forward to the videos.

  71. This exactly what I need. Ready to go.

  72. Max Simon says:

    Hi everyone!!

    I’m so THRILLED that you are so excited about this series. Thank you so much for all the comments, questions, and love.

    To answer your questions, the next set of videos are CHALKED FULL of extremely valuable and immediately usable content.

    And, think about this for a moment. If I just went right into the content without any context, it really wouldn’t make any sense. So yes, this first video is just about setting the stage, and get ready for some AWESOME content in the next set.

    So have a great day and I’ll talk to you soon…

    Much love,

    Max

  73. Love this. Fabulous. You’re amazing Max. Can’t wait for the next video.

  74. Maria says:

    Thank you for sharing these insights–I will be looking for the next video! I hope you will say more about how to define the content for these events.

  75. Cheryl says:

    Looking forward to hearing actual ideas on how to move forward with live events with integrity and love. Thank you!

  76. Soul says:

    Hmmmm… at the 9:20 part of Max’s story, hear him vent about the very same issue this video features. Odd that ehh? Let’s see how this unfolds …

  77. Karen says:

    Love it Max!! I am interested in hosting live group events, that contain all of the elements you’ve included, interaction, transformation and real value. I know from experience that’s what you offer both at your live events and all the free video content that your sharing. I also realize that I want to continue growing and moving forward with the tribe, can’t wait for your next live gig!! I’ll be there! Thanks Max!!

  78. Scott Bogart says:

    Would like to see what was promised…

  79. ingrid says:

    Looking forward to learning something. I have done some perspna work with your father and depak. Events are the way for me so any information will be helpful.

  80. athena says:

    I have been offering mortgage industry seminars and investment seminars since 1995 had as many as 150 in the room and loved it, never thought to make money at it it was to inform and then have the audience memebers chose to refer me mortgage business or come for a financial plan. i’m interested to find out how the expert says to do it since i’ve been winging it.

  81. Deni says:

    Thanks for answering that question before I asked. Like many others, waiting for the “how” videos. I, too, have a live event this summer, and a big one in October. This is what I need now. Looking forward to it.

    Thanks!
    Blessings,
    Deni

  82. Laura says:

    Very interesting video! I love live events, especially if I walk away with real info that I can apply immediately. I’m hosting 2 live events, one at the beach for a weekend. And the other is with a nationally known speaker, author, artist for a full day seminar. I would adore any info that would help me accomplish this on a shoestring budget!

    I appreciate your integrity which comes through loud and clear in the video. Thanks for offering this to us!
    Laura

  83. Jeanene says:

    Thank you for the first great video…looking forward to learning more

  84. Sharina says:

    I am intrigued. I look forward to the next videos in the series. I love live events too!! I still find it a daunting idea for a small start up practice like mine, though. How do I overcome that belief? Are you offering ideas for a small-timer like me? How do I attract the crowd? I look forward to hear more from you.

  85. Lois (Sky) says:

    I have been really itching to do live seminars. I have done a few workshops and found that I truly in need of some expert advice from successful people such as yourself. I love the “group energy” when everything is in sync. Looking forward to your next video. Thank you!

  86. Kerri says:

    I’m looking forward to the next video. But, I hope it is not empty like this one. It was basically a 12 minute commercial for the next video.

  87. Aimee says:

    WOW! Sounds just like what I want……….believe it is available and true for me? Lots of doubts and fears and also excitement at the thought of making this a reality. You speak with great confidence and clarity that is refreshing, but could I do that? Part of me is waiting for the hidden sales agenda that I have become used to. I truly am ready to move forward, expand my horizons and be abundant.

  88. Rahi says:

    Hi Max,

    Thanks for the invitation and for being of service. Looking forward to the real content.

  89. Amanda says:

    Hello Max,

    I recently became introduced to you, and so glad I was. I am a Relationship Coach that is taking my business to another level. I KNOW I have been predestined to present live events, I’ve done a workshop and spoken at a couple of events and afterward felt confirmation. I am absolutely “hiped” about going to the next level and beyond (to the point of overwhelm). Thank you sharing this series it looks like you are being a real blessing to many in need and for that the return is GREAT!

  90. Eric says:

    This is what I have been looking for. I am so excited that you are offering this information. I can not wait to view the other tapes.

  91. John says:

    Hi Simon,
    I am just about to launch my career in this area and the information you are providing is a godsend. Can’t wait for the next video.

    Thank you!

  92. Rondus says:

    Yes, I’m ready to lead seminars and support others as they grow to see how perfectly wonderful they are. Thank you for creating a community for tribes to gather. Forty years of alternative healing practice does give me something of value to share. Now I know what Simon says – - – succeed! Thank you for the invite.

  93. Ann says:

    What I didn’t understand, here, is what are you selling? Mentioned two things–”big ticket items” and “selling 30-50% of the audience.” What are the big ticket items and what are you selling?

  94. Max Simon says:

    It’s SO COOL to hear everyone’s enthusiasm and excitement for this program. The next video is coming to you VERY SOON….so keep an eye out.

    And if you have any other questions now, please feel free to post them on this blog….

    Much love,

    Max

  95. Max Simon says:

    Hi Ann….

    What I mean when I say “big ticket items” is continuing education programs that you offer to people (at your event) so that they can keep learning and growing with you as a teacher. The reason they are called “big ticket” items is because they normally range from a few thousand dollars to $25,000, and can last for a few weeks or a whole year.

    And when I say “sell 30-50% of the room”, I mean that I’m going to teach you how to convert that percentage of attendee’s into these next step clients…

    All of this, and more, is coming to you in the next few videos!!!

    Much love,

    Max

  96. Lynn Rich says:

    Hi,

    I am in the process of settng up my new business all based on Law of Attraction and i have my first workshop on May 2nd 2010. i could sure use some ideas and hints on how to make it go with a bang. its called “getting to know the real you” and there should be around 6people coming, so quite small but could be pivotal in getting me going

    Thanks
    Lynn Rich

  97. Michael says:

    Hey MAX, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you… After I attended SULN in Dec 09 – I created Living Heart Centered and the next step is SOLD OUT Seminars… I AM so Grateful to have met you, Erika, Julia and the rest of your amazing team. I look forward to the next video – when is this going to be a live event?
    As always I AM the Student – LOVE in Abundance, Michael

  98. ARSEN says:

    HELLO MAX,

    At age 75 I just sponsored my first live event March 24,2010.in Fresno,CA. Les Brown was headliner, Lynn Rose was the emcee and spoke as well, Bill Walsh was on stage as well as JEFF EBEN, Diana Wentworth, Lexi Welantez and myself. It was great experence and success in every catagory except financial. Could have used some advice from person with your background. This is my passion and looking forward to learning how to do it better next time. Planning to do WOW Factor with Lynn ROSE HERE IN Fresno MAY 22-23,and another event with Les Brown in Oct.When is next video coming out not getting any younger.LOL.

    THANKS, PAPA SOOB

  99. Antonio says:

    Hi Max, I have enjoyed very much your “little discussion” with Kristen Reagan, because she was also my voice.
    I am anxious to see what’s coming.
    Thanks

  100. Max Simon says:

    Hi Lynn….that is so EXCITING! and I’m really proud of you for moving into the Sold-Out Seminar space. Awesome!!

    YES, I will give you some really powerful tools in the next set of videos….so stay tuned, lots more great stuff coming to you very soon.

    Much love,

    Max

  101. Ines says:

    Well done Max! You are the master at this & the perfect guide. I am so blessed to have been part of your recipe for making events content rich & truly transformational. Last note is you know how to attract the PERFECT tribe of people that make it way more valuable. xo

    Hi Max,

    I have been ignoring you so far but now I think I will listen to you more seriously.

    Thanks

  109. Right on Max, love it! Looking forward to reconnecting soon. So excited to work with you on our League of Extraordinary Results program.

  110. Sherri Richards says:

    Hi Max,

    I’m interested in hearing more. I have work that makes a real difference in peoples lives and I’d like to know how I can take it into a bigger venue. I’ve been to a few events at the Chopra center over the years and always loved them, and found them to be life changing. I read from one of Deepak’s books every night. It gives me the mental support I need to continue to move to the next level.

    Hugs,
    Sherri

  112. Vicki Wagner says:

    HI Max,
    I am curious to see your next few videos. I give my own workshops and seminars and in my early days of learning spent over $30,000 on seminars- many of them MAJOR pitchfests. I promised never to do that to my audience. But I realize that you have to do some advertising to your own audience because they are your best bet to return to hear you. Like the old saying- a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush. Your audience already knows, likes and trusts you. (Hopefully.)

  114. marni says:

    Max,
    I am watching Aaron “do” his business Max-style and waiting to see what happens! :) I love live events, and am officially turning your video series into my personal “max simon” challenge. I am aiming for an event in Scottsdale in October, 2010. My challenge is going to be this: I am going to do everything you tell me to do in this video series. I am not going to ask any of the other biz coaches I use on input. Instead, I am going to see if I can pull this off only using the info you give out in your Free stuff. Let’s see what happens. Can it be done? Will there truly be that much content. I will report. Will blog. Use me if you must :)

    On another note, as a dating and relationship coach, it is seeming more and more that the best, most sure way to make HUGE money as a coach is to coach coaches. Ahhh :) I think I will make my biz into 6 figs and then tell people how to do it :)

    I’m poised, waiting to copy the hell out of you!

    Hug,
    Marni

  115. Lisa says:

    As a veteran of planning and sponsoring events, I really enjoyed this intro. Looking forward to more.

  116. Stephen de Groot says:

    Refreshing and interesting. No doubt.

    My interest remains piqued…but am a skeptic until I am moved. So, move me Max! Looking forward to the next video.

  117. fdjaudinesjr says:

    Talk about law of attraction… I’m planning to do a seminar/training myself with Linux and Ruby on Rails. I want to give great value and make a difference. I’m already excited for the next video.

    Thank you.

  118. Ravi Rao, MD,PhD,M.Ed says:

    Hi Max-

    I’m looking forward to learning from you. I’m at the point of wanting to take my message to a much broader audience. I’ve told audiences for years “Greatness starts with making others great” – well, that’s you !

    -Ravi

  119. Hi Max,

    I am really excited about learning more about Sold Out Seminar Secrets as I would LOVE to find a way to bring Project Empowerment to a larger scale. Right now it’s just on Blog Talk Radio. Thanks a million and I look forward to the next video!

    Namaste’

  120. Max Simon says:

    WOW….the energy and enthusiasm from all of you is SO INSPIRING!!! Can you feel it? Read through all the comments from the tribe and feel into what we’re creating here together. It’s so AWESOME.

    The next video is coming out really soon….as in the next day or so. And it’s over 23 minutes (at this stage of the editing) with 100% powerful and immediately usable content….

    Plus, I’ve got some surprise gifts for you.

    So stay on the lookout, share this with your friends, and keep the energy high! This is so exciting….

    Much love,

    Max

  121. Hi Max,
    Thank you so much for this unusually genuine gift. We are all being flooded with free marketing/learning opportunities right now, and I am glad I chose to spend some time with yours. I am very eager to receive the next video!
    I am getting ready to take my own “next bold step” to reach the world in a larger way. You have arrived for me at just the right time!All the best, Kathryn

  122. I am so glad I came to this email and opened it to hear what you had to share. Being a newbie, this is great stuff and I so look forward to using it in my endeavors as I get my business going. This is the year I will take a leap of faith so that I can live my dreams and this is exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you so much! Keep up the great work!

  123. Katia says:

    Dear Max,

    I was excited by your page that stated the items that you would be discussing IN THIS VIDEO of 18 minutes. I did not see any of those items* mentioned in this video at all, and it was not the length specified. I am willing to check out what the next video holds. However, I now have a huge skepticism, since you have not kept your promise. If you were not going to deliver what you said, why offer it? What separates you from the people you are supposedly venting about? You could have just said you were offering a SERIES. It feels very unclean to me. Particularly since that is what you are touting as being the negative wave of events marketing these days…

    Sincerely,
    Katia

    * Why producing your own live events is much easier (and more profitable) than you think.
    * My “Cirque du Soleil” room-filling strategy that has sold-out every one of our events (time and time again).
    * How to create events that deliver massive value and massive sales (we’ve proven it’s possible).
    * How to find awesome venues that are super affordable and totally unique.
    * How to produce amazing events on a small budget that easily generate hundreds of thousands of dollars.

    And much more…

    This video is 18 minutes long, full of usable content, [!] and best of all…it’s FREE.

  124. Mary Lyn says:

    Max…Bring it on! this could not be more timely for me. I am putting on an event in July and am looking forward to all your wisdom and information. i can’t wait…really.

  125. Max,
    I loved this! I have been looking for a long time for mentors with great ideas to assist me in the next step of my plan. Being a teacher and not a promoter, I have been unsure how to grow – now I am excited that growing will be the most fun ever since you have clearly indicated how important integrity is.
    Now, it is just a matter of seeing you deliver on all the wonderful golden nuggets you dropped in this first video. I am really looking forward to it.

    Thanks Max!

  126. Christina Wilson says:

    What’s next

  127. Max Simon says:

    Hi Christina,

    Keep an eye out for the next video…it’s coming to you really soon!

    Much love,

    Max

  128. Max Simon says:

    Hi Katia,

    Thank you for bringing this to light. Let me explain:

    If you’ve ever created videos before, you start with one idea and they often morph into another. We started with the intention to give this content away in the FIRST video….and then realized it would be a VERY LONG video. So this info is EXACTLY what you will get in video #2, which coming soon.

    Unfortunately, there was no time left to go back and re-do the opt-in video so we had to go live with it, knowing that it wasn’t 100% accurate.

    All this said, you will still get EVERY SINGLE THING we promised you in the next videos….

    Sound good?

    Much love,

    Max

  129. Hey Max,

    I met you a couple of years ago at your Yoga Month event where you videotaped all of us walking and sitting and meditating. It was a lot of fun, there was great music and great energy! I’m so glad that you are successful at making a difference for others. What a great feeling it must be!

    Have fun in Hawaii !

    Looking forward to more info.

    Michael :o )

    P.S. Hello and hugs to Erika! :o )

  130. Mary says:

    Looking forward to the next video

    Thanks

  131. Amanda says:

    Hi Max!

    I noticed as I was scrollomg down the page some of us are just waiting for YOUR attempt to pull us into your ‘sales funnel’ & others feel disheartened by the lack of Tons of info in this vid all at once…

    While skepticism is natural for some (we are simply human after all!)… on a ‘success scale’, if we allow our ‘inner chatterbox’ to influence an opportunity to Learn all that we can about what brought us here in the first place surely we’d be ripping ourselves off?

    I’ve heard we have the ability to process just 7 chunks of information at any time. If it’s true we delete, distort & generalise anything not congruent with what we choose/need to focus on, then Surely you have done us a favour in preventing our Overload resulting in Overwhelm & Very Little Success by pacing the content you wish to share?!

    In regard to comments about you possiblly attempting to ‘sell’ to us, in my personal experience those most resistant are usually those who know they make their buying decisions based on impulse.!. Back on track… Does most of what we want in life come without an investment of some sort… time, money or otherwise?…

    Ulimately the buying decision would be made by our own desire… Is it enough for us to move forward with the content you provided for ‘free’ or do we wish to maximise our own potential by investing money And time to learn all we can from you & hopefully gain the tools we need to succeed in less time & with less mistakes?!

    Loved the vid Max, was sent a link to you & can also be ‘skeptical’ myself… Have to say I’m looking forward to Number 2 & Thankyou for your decision to Share youe knowledge & Empower us to reset the standard in true Seminar Success :)

  132. Gina DeVee says:

    MAX!!!!! I loved this video! So well done. You’re going to change many lives with this material. I’m thrilled to pass it along.

    Much love,
    Gina

  133. Isabella says:

    Hi Max,
    Thanks for this intro. I’m eager for practical content and looking forward to the next videos. I believe you know what you’re doing, but are you really going to share it? I hope so!!

  134. Luz Maa says:

    I am really looking forward to learning how to create sold out seminars! I hope you over deliver!!!!!

  135. Max Simon says:

    Amanda,

    I am DEEPLY touched that you took the time to write this post to the rest of the tribe. Thank you so much…and I think that you are RIGHT ON THE MONEY!

    AND, with all of the bait and switch marketing out there, I can fully understand and empathize with the few people who shared their skepticism. In fact, I really appreciate their willingness to speak their truth and get it out of their minds. Often times, just owing the thought helps it release.

    That said, the next few videos are just plain awesome, and fully of powerful, usable, and valuable content. In fact, the next video is over 25 minutes of pure goodness.

    So keep an eye out because it’s coming to you soon….and please, keep sharing your truth. I am so excited and grateful to be in this conversation with you!

    Much love,

    Max

  136. Christina says:

    Thank you.

  137. Michelle says:

    Hi Max:

    Video quality was excellent-I have passed on to several friends that would be interested in creating their own events. I look forward to the content in the upcoming videos.

    Michelle Joubert

  138. Max…thanks for the intro video. I have been putting together some info to begin my own seminar company and your video has rekindled my motivation to take more massive action. I am looking forward to your next piece and I am hopeful that it will help me crystalize my efforts and intentions. It’s a great feeling to not have to “Go it Alone”. It’s not always about money, it’s about making life better for others and sharing our gifts, talents and stories with them. Thanks for your passion..

    Tony

  139. Shirley says:

    Hi Max,

    You have opened my eyes to possibilities I had not considered before. Given the very individualized and personal nature of my work (guiding, empowering and inspiring successful women to Attract and Keep the relationship of their dreams) I had not seen how this might be done at mega events, so I am thrilled to see how this might work with an event of 20 or so people. So my question is: does your method work, and How does it work for small, intimate events that are promoting high ticket VIP access for the next step?

    Warmly, Shirley

  140. Max Simon says:

    Shirley….

    You’re going to really SMILE at the next video. Stay tuned my dear….it’s going to make your heart sing.

    Much love,

    Max

  141. Erin says:

    When does the next video come out?

  143. Bob Donnell says:

    Max, great job, looking forward to hearing more and getting to know you!

  144. Max Simon says:

    Thanks Bob. I’m LOVIN’ this process and can’t wait to give you more GREAT stuff.

  145. Thomas Massah says:

    Dear Max Simon,
    Thanks you very much for the video.The job is well done.

  146. Hollee says:

    Max, Thanks for your passion around this! Interested in hearing more as we all want to be effective in sharing our content and gifts with as broad an audience as possible.

    Thanks again – Hollee

  147. Terri says:

    Max,
    I am very excited to watch the next video! You left us on the edge of a thrilling cliff.
    Terri

  148. Max,

    Thank you for sharing your heart and passion. I have been putting off doing live events because I really wanted to be able to be part of transforming others’ lives. I look forward to the next video.

    With gratitude,
    Audrey

  149. Heidi Sue says:

    Max,
    So ready for more of this and more people to get on board. I’m tired of how purpose and soul has been high-jacked just for profit. Don’t get me wrong, I like making money. And movements that really change the world don’t happen BECAUSE the founder wanted to get rich. That may come as part of the process, but it’s not the goal. Service and change are the goal. That’s what gets my heart pumping–and lets me stand when people say that what I teach is all wrong.

    ANYONE can be a successful entrepreneur!

    Looking forward to more,
    Heidi Sue

  150. Irene says:

    Interesting. I have been told that I give way too much ‘how’ at my live events and don’t do enough ‘back of room’ sales. I have beed told just to give the ‘why’, honestly, I am frustrated because it used to be that you went to a seminar to learn somthing and I think people are jaded and everyone I know is having a hard time filling a room, myself included. I want my clients to walk away with soemthing tangible that they can put to use immedialtely. Interested to see what you have to say…. but sadly, waiting for the pitch at the end. ;-)

  151. Margarit says:

    Dear Max,

    The timing of your video’s is so perfect for my life right now. I have just published a book after being a hermit for years while writing it. I am excited to find my tribe and deliver new content and insights on a much grander scale then I have ever done before. I am so Ready to Serve!

    Thank you,

    Many Blessings,
    Margarit Brigham

  152. This is my next step on my entrepreneurial journey and I have to say I am intrigued. I have gone through some “how to create a successful workshop” training, but still do not necessarily feel ready… I delete a lot of emails offering similar programs, so I do not know why I chose to click through here, but I am looking forward to seeing what is next…

    I envision myself on stage presenting valuable workshops and having a blast with the audience… but needless to say conversion needs to happen to continue to share value… I want to achieve this in a compelling and authentic way filled with integrity…

    It would be nice if you are offering this for real!!!

    Warmly,
    Dianne

  153. julia says:

    Thanks Max for the information. It was very helpful. Look forward to the next spot and having my own seminars that help people that help people.

    Best to you and the world,

    Hey Max. It’s JOVO. I met you at Maui Yoga,your house party and today at Green Banana. These videos are very well done. Especially since I’ve seen the “Studio”. Keep doing the great work and hopefully we can work together and bring this movement into Vancouver,BC.

    All the best

  156. Inspiring – thanks for sharing all this information. Looking forward to watch the second video…o.k. here I go!
    Thanks for your vision.

  157. Max,

    Phenomenal and genuine (as always). When I am ready to step into this batter’s box, I will employ your wisdom candidly. Cheers. Peace.

  158. Gail Lloyd says:

    Right on Max,
    I love your message: money subordinate to meaning.
    Very valuable that you discuss the evolution of your business
    and your roots ! This is certainly a time to attempt something
    new and magical at live events.
    There is something going on in group consciousness currently
    that calls us to connect in groups, a deep soul’s calling to
    combine with others seeking to mend and evolve planetary
    consciousness.
    How group events are organized does infuse the meaning
    and purpose of the events, I absolutely agree. Being conscious
    on all levels of how an event is formatted infuses the final
    message of the gathering.
    I would suggest getting a little more experimental in
    your back ground music. The sounds on this tape connote
    a feeling of business and technical; if I were to do an
    event I would personally seek to infuse a musical and
    artistic sensibility, have the “medium be the message”
    in a more eclectic way.

  159. Max Simon says:

    Gail,

    I love the way you think, and agree with you 100%! Live events can be magical, powerful, and life-changing…when arranged the right way. And that is EXACTLY why I’ve created this program, to help people do just that.

    And thanks for your feedback about music. Heard and got it!

    Much love,

    Max

  160. Kim Prucha says:

    Max, I can’t wait for the next video. When, when, when? I’m excited!

  161. Mrim Boutla says:

    Max –

    Thank you so much for your passion and for engaging us in a conversation about how important it is for all of us to build our businesses with one core value in mind: We are here to help others and address their needs!

    Building upon my 6 years experience in career coaching experience, I am now starting my own business – purposeu – which aims at helping students and professionals articulate their career purpose and pursue sustainability careers that align with their purpose across the private, public and non-profit sectors. I hope to become the go-to coach for people who want to make a positive impact on our world through work. Through this work, I also want to increase the visibility of careers that successfully blend financial return with social impact and environmental responsibility.

    Live events will play a key role in my business, and I am excited to learn more about you and your experience through your videos! One day, I hope I will be able to return the favor!

    Thank you for this first video, I look forward to the next steps in this process.
    Mrim

  162. Cheryl says:

    Max,
    I loved this video, if your follow-through is as good as your pitch, I’ll look forward to making money on my events in future. Thank you for your giving.

    Cheryl

  163. Max Simon says:

    Haha….thanks Cheryl. Did you see video #2 yet? Make sure to click on the link above and watch it now because the 3rd video is coming out SO SOON…Much love, Max

  164. Jack Austin says:

    Hi Max,

    Nice job! The videos feel really good and the reports are a bonus. I liked the format when I saw Frank, Andie and Brendon do it. Really supports your contribution–reciprocity!!

    Thanks!!

    Jack

  165. Farhana says:

  166. Melissa says:

    Hi,

    I grew up going to worldwide seminars as well. When I was 20 until I was 25 I was part of the leading youth that organized the events at the seminars and lead workshops for children 5 to youth up to 25. It was one of the best time I had in my life and I am gratiful for you as this has reinspired me. I want to bring shiatsu for the public but like you said at the begining I had a lot of doubt on whether I could do it. But I know I can. Thank you.

    Melis

  167. Mo Latin says:

    Max

    You and I are in sync my friend.

    I have been running event audiovisual production for the past few years specialising in personal development events and am so grateful and privileged to have worked with many of the top names in the industry, and to be in an environment where such powerful, moving and inspiring transformation takes place.

    I am also like you very aware of the difference between events focused on the gift off authentic transformation and those with a lot of great content and a good mix of sales pitch.

    Right now I am developing my own on and off-line programs, products and events to teach people how to capture the true value of what they have to share with the world through audio and video, and deliver it most effectively through products, the internet and powerful and profound live events.

    I have just watched this first video and truly appreciate we are coming from… I’m off to watch videos two and three right now…

    Thank you Max

  168. rina says:

    Hi

    I just watched that first video & it touched something.

    My love to people & my desire to make a difference& get a lot of money easily. And immedietly come up the gremlins: it’s hard to perforem, in my niche it’s hard to gather people (i work with furtility patients-supporting & empowering them thru this hard time, I’m not knoen yet & my list is small.

    DO you have eny words of wisdom for me?

    And another thing- i’m living in Israel. How can you train me ? is what you teach work here?

    Thanks

    Rina

  169. So appreciate your authenticity and warmth, Max. Your heart-centered approach to business is a model and an inspiration. Took the pressure off all the hype. Mostly, I appreciate your reminder, your invitation for us to start where we are, no matter how small, and let us, and our groups, grow organically. So affirming! Thank you. Namaste’

  170. julie says:

    Hi,in my opinion the first video provided no content other than prefacing what was to come. The bullets presented in the beginning were presented at the end with no answers in between. Hopefully, video #2 will be more content rich.

    Thank you

  171. ella says:

    Very cool. I agree that content matters and that it is fun.
    Do I want to know how to do it? You bet :-)

  172. Lin says:

    Hi Max,
    I live in Singapore, and I have been wanting to do seminars that touch the heart, that move,or that make you roll over with laughter and bring great joy. I have many speakers in mind.. BUT.. yes,, i have the same doubts. Even now, I am in debt, job hunting, and thinking.. wouldnt it be great if i could do this now!? Wouldnt it be great if i could take a loan and …. but reality hovers above and i say to myself, get a job first, save the money first, pay your debts first…

    I shall listen to all your other videos and read your material… my soul has been prompting me to do stuff i am passionate about yet i am torn between that and practicalities…

    Bless you.

  173. Linda says:

    Hi Max –

    I so love synchronicity. I am finally stepping out and starting my business and have felt guided from the heart to start my holistic counseling through live talks, to get out what I am passionate about and want to share with others and I have scheduled my first talk to happen in a couple of weeks and asked the Universe for guidance.

    Blessings to you

  174. Michelle Norman says:

    This sounds like exactly what I’ve been looking for – I’m excited and hopeful that this will be true information and not just another “hook”. I’m noping that Videos 2-4 get into the meat of the topic.

    Hopeful in Kansas City,
    Michelle

  175. Michael says:

    Hi Max, thx for sending me your emails all the time. Yes, I read them all, always. I really love that new style of presentation on the first video. Well done I think.
    Yes, giving sold-out seminars would be fun and fulfilling. See, you got me. But how could I do? I learnt teaching transcendental meditation and love to teach and see people blossom but I can’t work with that organization any longer.
    Lots of love from Germany
    Michael

  176. Love what your doing buddy…keep it up…I am a great friend of Mateo’s a fellow visionary and look forward to sharing in many events down the road! Love and blessings..

    Daniel

  177. Dianne says:

    Can’t tell you how sucked in I have been by “Pitch Fests” and I would never want to do that to another human being — ever! So, building events is part of my business model and filling a room of 30 people seems daunting.

  178. Diane says:

    thanks!

  179. sam says:

    I have a hard time “selling” myself to people because I hate when people are trying to sell to me even when it’s a soft sell. This is something that is holding me back and I would love to find a way to get over it.

  180. I live in the UK and do seminars, workshops, retreats, spiritual journeys etc and would love to know how to make them all sell out events. I am always told I give too much away especially at free talks but I just want to help people live as richly rewarding life as I do. I have a retreat organised for October in France and planning another in the UK in January. how to fill them cheaply would be wonderful. Many thanks much love light and angel wings – Joylina

  181. roger says:

    I find myself feeling more like Kristen. I do not attend these type of events because they are typically just another attempt to pressure you into buying more products. I anxiously await the next video to find out what the “content” is of these new events you are going to show us how to do.

  182. Vicki Howie says:

    Max,
    Thank you, thank you, thank you for promoting what really matters — that we TOUCH each other –literally and emotionally. As the world gets more and more virtual, nothing beats the HEARTFELT LIVE EVENT. The time I spent with you in Joshua Tree this past weekend was the most transformational I’ve ever experienced (and I’ve experienced a lot of workshops!).

    My website is in development. I am a single, working and independent mom that would like to serve the needs of women like myself. However, I am considering having my site provide information in general to ALL parents in my local area. I currently do not have a budget for paying for attending a large workshop or live training seminar, so what I can learn from you for free, at this time, will definitely help. I am loving what I’ve seen and heard from you so far. I want to learn more!!!!

  184. Wow!! We could really use a boost like this Max. Thanks for your willingness and expertise to help us create a Big Event. We look forward to hearing how we can impact our Concert Event and make a powerful difference in the lives of others.
    No one has ever seen what we offer at our ‘Chorus in Miracles’ Concert! Awesome. Phenomenal.

    Many thanks, Diane

  186. Callan Rush says:

    Hi Max,

    Great video! I love what you’re up to… I’m going to promote you and these videos to my subscribers, there all Workshop and Seminar Leaders… and as we both know, filling their events is ALWAYS their primary concern.

    Much Love and Respect,

    Callan Rush

  188. amy elias says:

    Contacted you before to do an EAST COAST self-centered meditation…sitting outside our “rodeo drive”…had lunch with Deepak and my daughter, Alana, Senior Editor for Huffington Post Living section Health and Religion, based in NYC…..I had wanted to tap into your energy for a phone call but i kept getting intercepted by your assitant…wanted some input an direction…five minutes-ten? please? i am also friends with Debbie robins…

  189. Stephen Oliver says:

    Wow! It’s great to hear from someone who comes from integrity, love and value. That’s what’s missing in so much of the world.

    I can’t wait for the next video.

    Namaste,

    Stephen

  190. keith says:

    Great information. The key to anything is marketing. so does your program cover how to market to people to come to my events? Does it cover what venues to hold these events at how much of a budget you need and how to get hooked up for accepting credit cards. Thanks

    keith

  191. keith says:

    I am looking forward to seeing the other videos

  192. Sage Knight says:

    Hi Max ~

    You, my dear, are one powerhouse of love and focus. I am grateful to know you, and I look forward to learning more…let’s serve the tribe!

  193. Martin says:

    Thanks Max;

    I look forward to getting to know you better and learning with you.

    Have a fantastic day.

  194. sandi says:

    inspiring so far…looking forward to the next video and to witness words that follow through in action. Blessings…

  195. Keith says:

    Interested, but somewhat skeptical.

  196. Max Simon says:

    Haha…totally get it Keith. Thanks for sharing. Keep an eye out for the next video and let’s see how you feel after that…OK?

    Much love,

    Max

  197. Max Simon says:

    Awesome, thanks Martin!! I look forward to helping you in any way that I can.

  198. Marit says:

    I´m really interested to see if the stuff you present is translatable to the Norwegian reality that I´m a part of. Can´t wait to hear more:)

  199. Berta says:

    Very exciting!!

    This is something I’ve felt led to do for quite sometime. I am looking forward to learning how to create a profitable live event.

  200. Max Simon says:

    And I’m looking forward to SHOWING you how to do that Berta! Thanks for sharing your energy and excitement…

  201. Max Simon says:

    YES!! Keith. In fact, there are TWO primary areas of focus in this program – 1) the ONLY 3 marketing strategies that ever work to fill up your events with the right people AND 2) how to authentically and powerfully “sell from the stage” so that people invest in your big-ticket next steps.

    Pretty cool….right?

  202. Can’t wait for the next vid. Thanks for your generosity and wisdom!

  203. Terri says:

    Can’t wait, Max!

  204. Taber Shadburne says:

    To this first video, which I was expecting
    to go into the content that had been promised,
    I had the same reaction voiced by some others…

    “okay, I’m motivated already… where’s the beef?”

    (I did like the stuff about your story)

    And it raised the concern that you might be modeling
    the marketing behavior you’d been complaining about
    (said complaints had me responding out loud to my
    screen: “Yeah!!” cuz I’m sick of the pitchfests).

    But I really appreciate you for encouraging honest
    feedback, and your candid, non-defensive responses.
    And I get that the first video ended up being an
    intro, which isn’t what you’d originally planned.

    And yet, for me, the question remains: How will
    you harmonize your claimed aversion to the current
    trend of marketing-rich events with having one of
    the “two primary areas of focus in this program”
    being “how to authentically and powerfully sell
    from the stage so that people invest in your
    big-ticket next steps.” Is this not a bit of
    a contradiction?

    I have this concern (particularly since the
    events I do are “spiritual” in nature) but
    will continue to listen with an open mind…

    Thanks,
    Taber

    hmmm… I can’t view the second video…
    checked for a confirmation email or
    double opt-in email… nada… can’t
    get “video 2″ to play… has a lock
    symbol in front of it.. wha’sup?

  206. sapphire says:

    hi max

    thank you for your straightforward clear impactful words… i’m sure i can use what you are offering and i feel gratitude that you showed up in my inbox today. i am a natural facilitator and have done 20 years of personal growth… i have so many ideas for events but then there seems to be a gap between the visualisation and the realisation. i am hoping that your words will help me to bridge that gap.

    warm wishes
    sapphire de la terre

  207. Karen says:

    Hi Max,
    You know, I almost deleted your email without coming over here to view the video. You see, live events just don’t seem like me. Or didn’t. But something drove me to watch.

    Now… I find myself curious and opening up to the idea that a live event may just be something to consider… hmmm. Thanks & looking forward to more!

  208. bb says:

    Hey Max,

    I really get what you are saying here, and isn’t everything that you are saying here leading to you selling us something ? Isn’t that a big part of the point ?

  209. Renee says:

    Hi Max –

    I’ve been doing live training microenterprise education events for years, with good results. Now with the down economy we have seen attendance slacking. We are in one of the poorest counties in the nation and people just seem so overwhelmed a lot of the time. Quite a few have confirmed they are coming for several events lately and then haven’t shown up. I am looking forward to learning from you.

    Blessings,
    Renee

  210. Nancy Oblea says:

    Hi Max I first was introduced to your work on succsess manifestors with John Assaraf
    earlier this year and I am glad that you are doing these teleseminars. And here is a
    question I have a cleaning business how would I go about doing a semimer on that subject?
    Also I will be speaking at a local womens group in September and people who know me know that
    I am far from being shy. I just don’t have any idea what I could say to a large group of people
    on that subject other than promoting my business.

  211. Bruce Thompson says:

    On the day of the event, how do you know they will show? How many?

  212. Barbara says:

    Hi Max..
    I am so honored and grateful to have attracted your teachings into my life…In the past couple years I have been attending events finding myself going just so I could watch.. how or if the presentor could create inspiration within me…I totally agree, most of the events that are out, are focussed on selling you the “most amazing” MLM opportunity there ever was. Although, I had decided a long time ago I was not going to be sold too, I continued to attend these events searching for something and until recently I never really understood what that was. Today I know I am the product I wish to promote…I want to teach and inspire women everywhere how to create motivational income streams so they can focus on Loving and valueing themselves above all else. I beleive it is my purpose to help and inspire women to be happy and grateful for each and every day of their life. I will consider it a blessing to receive your next video.

  213. Karl Weiss says:

    Very nice. Felt the connection. And love the tribe/community aspect. Looking forward to seeing more

  214. Max Simon says:

    That’s SO COOL Karen! Yes, putting on your own sold-out seminars is one of the most enjoyable, powerful (and profitable) ways of getting your message out and growing your business. I look forward to supporting you in bringing this new energy into a living breathing reality!

  215. Max Simon says:

    Hi Nancy! Thanks for the kind words. I think you will find a TREMENDOUS amount of clarity throughout this video series about how to create events that “your tribe” will be thrilled to attend. So keep watching and I’ll bet you’ll get the answers you’re looking for…

    Much love,

    Max

  216. Max Simon says:

    Wow Barbara, I just LOVE your energy!!

    And I totally hear you about attending event after event looking for “a good model”. And I think you are 1000% onto something with your realization that “YOU ARE THE PRODUCT.”

    Just awesome. Keep watching and you’ll find even more clarity about how to bring this amazing awareness into a living breathing reality.

    Much love,

    Max

  217. Cassie says:

    Great video. I am inspired and excited to watch the next one.

  218. Lorna Blake says:

    Wow, I’m so inspired! Thanks Max!

    I’m amazed how I attracted this today! I had my first meeting yesterday to start planning my first live event… And this is exactly what I need!

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Love and light,
    Lorna

  219. Hi Max,

    Max thank you for your insight. I love doing live events, so this is great info to continue to expand my business.

    Live big or go home.

    Regards,

    Warren

  220. Hi Lorna,

    It is good to see you on this site. We should connect.

    Regards,

    Warren

  221. Michelle says:

    Sell, sell, sell, that is what tires me about going to live events. It’ll be nice to see a different approach!

    Thanks Max!

  222. Nichole says:

    Max….you have no idea how timely your existence has landed in my path. Can’t wait to connect.

    When the student is ready…thanks! :-)

  224. Donna says:

    Max, This sounds very interesting. I would like to learn.

  225. anne says:

    Max, Looking forward to learning more…I am curious!

  226. Max Simon says:

    I hear you Michelle!!! We’re all SO SICK of pitch fests that promise a lot of value and don’t deliver. So glad to have you as part of this NEW model of live events….Much love, Max

  227. Sara says:

    New business models centered on service and integrity are exciting and momentous…I look forward to incorporating yours!

  228. Thank you Max, this is just the information my team and I need as we embark on the launch of our new healing business, look forward to the rest of the videos. I appreciate you honesty, integrity and willingness to share your knowledge. Brittain

  229. Cliff says:

    Max,

    I just watched and video message and can not agree with you more. I have been doing events for organizations for over 15 years in spiritual arenas and every thing you mentioned I have experienced. Like you, I have a passion of equipping people with tools they can apply to transform their lives for the better, not just create events to pitch the latest books, dvd’s or cd’s of the speakers I bring in. Thanks again for the insight.

    Blessings,

  231. John says:

    This is a great video – thanks! Like many others, I can’t wait to see more.

  232. Amanda Brentlinger Zimmerman says:

    I cannot wait to see more. I have so much that I can’t wait to get out, so thank you for the opportunity to learn the best ways to do it!

  233. Bill says:

    Max, you’ve touched something deep inside me. Thanks for the great inspiration. I only have to overcome my doubts… (awaiting your next videos)

  234. Max says:

    Dude….speak to me….there is much within me to give…guide me to get it out.

  235. Linda Costa says:

    I am anticipating the next step…Thank you.

  236. Lisa says:

    Sounds fantastic!

  237. Wendy Wein says:

    I love your passion about this!

  238. Marlene says:

    Can’t wait to see the information adn put it into practice.

  239. monique says:

    i’m hooked. ready to watch the next video and i’m already dreaming of my first event!

  240. Thank you for the opportunity to serve, Max. I wake up every day wanting to help people, and this would be very helpful both for my reach in helping people and for my bank account. LOL I know that my income should be proportional to the amount of value I deliver multiplied by the number of people I deliver the value to. If I can deliver more value to more people, I can also help my family and increase my financial security.

    Blessings,

  241. Dear Max,

    You are such a breathe of Fresh Air! You make it so clean and simple. So Do-able! I am looking forward to learning from you and with you.

  242. Max:

    I am so looking forward to your info. I want this info. I need this info!!!!

    I have a 3-day intensive content rich workshop scheduled for October, and I am not drawing the participants I need.

    S.O.S.!!!!!
    Help!!!!

    Thank you.

    Love & Light,

  243. Does your method apply to seminars given for doctors?

  244. Max Simon says:

    Hi Robert. YES!!!! This is perfect for seminars for doctors. Keep watching and enjoy….

  245. Marge Ferguson says:

    Sounds very intriguing. The economy has me looking at ways to increase my household income. I am a retired teacher and I’ve been looking for a venue to put my experience and skills back to work. I love teaching and I prefer working with small groups, so you have my interest. I know you can do more interactive content and provide very unique experiences for all participants in small intimate settings. I like doing take-away activities that students can teach to others. To me that’s more valuable than just buying a bunch of books and audios.

    I look forward to learning more about how you structure your live events. You would be providing a very valuable resource for me.

  246. Joyce says:

    I already do seminars and retreats that are small. I want to produce larger events and really grow my retreats in Costa Rica and Mexico.

    Thanks….Joyce

  247. Kim Anthon says:

    You FIRST video was so encouraging! I can’t wait for the rest! I am currently on the team for Super Seminar III in Los Angeles on November 5-7, 2010. Ray Blanchard referred me to your site! FANTASTIC! Kim Anthony

  248. WOW! That was inspiring! Thanks.

  249. All these great comments I wish I could have seen the video. For some reason it would not play for me tonight. I have bookmarked the page and will try again tomorrow.

  250. mark says:

    Thanks so much. I look forward to watching the other videos.

  251. rc says:

    great direction, Max. the genre has needed a good fix.

  252. Thanks Max

    You must have been sent by the gods as this is exactly what I need right now, have been running free seminars for a while now and hate the feeling of the salesy part…

    Looking forward to your pearls of wisdom..

    Cheers
    Charlie

  253. Great video Max – thanks
    Looking forward to learning more

  254. Terri says:

    Wow! Awesome and really inspiring, thank you so much. Can’t wait for the next video to hit my in-box!

  255. Kevin says:

    Nice work,Max. I like your energy…

  256. Glaadys says:

    Love your video. This is some thing I love to do. And I love the thought of giving people content and not just selling. We need more of that, people need learning experiences, passion, caring, emotional, inspiring, events that they can truely feel awesome when they leave. I can’t wait to see the next video. I am so tired of all the events where you never get the whole experience unless you buy a product.

  257. So serendipitous that this came to me today! Thanks.

  258. Rob says:

    Thought provoking and looking forward to the next video! Thanks for sharing.

  259. Devya says:

    This is just what I am looking for since I am planning a fairly large event in December
    Heartfelt thanks for a wonderful, (i.e. ‘full of wonder’) presentation.

    Hi Max,
    My partners and I so desire to put on seminars and events to build up people, so far we haven’t been very successful, so I’m looking forward to the next video!
    THANK YOU!

    Max,
    Thanks. waiting to hear more.

  263. Reg says:

    Max, I’ve been trying to get more than 20 people to my events for business development and personal growth for the last 5 years. My costs are expensive and people that do come hardly buy. I keep changing my approach looking for the secret that will make them work. You may well have the magic formula I’m looking for. Would love to hear more, would love to see you here in Australia.

    Many thanks, Reg Templer

  265. GOTOCOACH says:

    Max,

    I have been looking for marketing from the heart around the net, at workshops, through books, and talking to friends and family about authentic marketing techniques. I am exhausted! Time to let the universe heal this for me was my prayer this morning. I Wonder has the universe has sent me a gift called Max.

    LOVE,
    GOTOCOACH

  266. INCREDIBLE!! Prove me wrong that there CAN’T be this much information coming my way! I’m doing a two day event in two months and am scared silly. Your stuff will help ALOT!!

    I also appreciate the ‘love’ aspect of your work. So much so, that your sign off ‘Much love’ is how I often end emails.

    I’m looking forward to this. Thank you for the opportunity.

    Much love,

    William ‘Sandy’ Wallace

  267. I’ve been doing this for 15 years. However, this down economy and especially since my niche is the construction industry that has been so hard hit by the economy, I find less and less people in my seats. I will be your hardest critic, if you fail to show me something different, somthing that will work, I will let you know ASAP! Take my challenge, show me FILLED SEATS!!!

  268. Ian says:

    Hi Max

    Interesting I’m just looking into this at the moment.

    thanks

  269. Max you are an awesome being. Anyone associated with Dr.David Simon and Dr.Chopra can only come from Love, Peace, and Success. Thank you Max for sharing your wealth of knowledge for all to grow with.

    Love You,

    Forever Faith

  270. You are truly amazing and I look forward to working with you one of these days.

  271. Liliane says:

    I just love the way you explain everything, and put it so easy and clear. You have a beautiful mission, and were prepared for it. Congratulations! I´m really glad that the world has people like you in it. Makes me see that I do too have a mission, and want to go along this way.
    Thanks for your wonderful information. Hope to do lots of live events here in Brazil, as soon as my site goes on the air, with fantastic information that I´m translating into the Portuguese language.
    Many blessings and keep up the good work,
    Liliane

  272. Cliff says:

    Max,

    Once again, thanks for a great tool. It has been so helpful for me to write down these concepts to encourage me about charging what my events are truly worth. In the past I knew I needed to charge but battled feeling guilty and usually sold tickets for less than they were worth and like you said, I got a lot of the wrong crowd who didn’t understand the value of the material or experience. Not only have your videos been a good teaching tool and are also a confidence booster.

    Blessings,

    Max -

    Your video captured my attention. I am eager to learn more. Thank you for telling your story. That certainly helped you stand out from the crowd!

    Blessings,
    Lora

  274. Hi Max, Thanks for sharing with us. It is a dream to put on a live event. I have planned them in the past and have only attracted two-three people to them. I love that you stressed that you can consistently do them for 20-65 people and still are able to make money. That is what I want to hear about.

    Blessings to you.

    I am looking forward to hear from you. I need help! I have had seminars and cannot figure out why everyone in the world does not come because I have great information to share.

    • Max Simon says:

      I hear you April. It can be so frustrating when you know deep in your heart that you’ve got the goods but can’t figure out the best way to get the message out.

      Keep watching. You’ll get tremendous value from this series.

      Much love,

My heart is certainly the center of my being and I am willing to make changes to grow in all that I do. Thanks again for sharing and showing how it’s done by being an example. I can see the resemblance here in what you are teaching. Can’t wait for the next one. I appreciate you.

  279. Jocelyn says:

    Hi Max, I’m launching a program next week and although it’s an 8 week program as opposed to a weekend workshop, after re-watching these video’s today I’m excited to utilize some of the information to fill the last few spots this week. I’m putting out the possibility of coming to San Diego at the end of the month, so we’ll see how it all plays out :)

    In gratitude,

    Thanks to my friend who send this clip to my, Thank you Simon for your being and your words… I have been a producer of live entertainment events for 14 years (1990-2003)… perfect succesful events where exceptional. Since a month, and a whole lot of life events later (breastcancer, violent divorce, bankruptcy, no permanent residence or domicile… no money, no carriere, afraid of contact with family and friends… I am risen from the ashes! Intens happy, immens healthy, tremendous clearly what life is about… AND THIS IS WHAT I AM GOING TO SHARE WITH THE WORLD!!! Esther Hicks, Darel Rutherford, Tim Kelley, Napoleon Hill, Bob Proctor, God, mySelf… thank you!!! Max Simom now you’re on my list!

  282. Antoinette says:

    I love all that you say. For 12 years now, my purpose and work in life is to lead content rich, transformational live events that bring people together with a common vision. Thanks for a new infusion of energy to my purpose and new ideas for how to carry it out. It is possible to have sold out events again!

  283. Denise says:

    It has been my heart’s desire to spread the joy of living a life of love. How to get the message out to more people has been my stumbling block. I feel you’ve got the magic to make it happen. Thank You for sharing your light!

  284. Hi Max, that was a great video it really hit a chord with me and made perfect sense. I put an event on in June in the North East of England and had a great time. My challenge is getting another event sold out with 30 people. I’m really looking forward to the next videos,
    Cheers,
    Pete

  285. Sherri Mack says:

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Can’t wait for more…you are EXACTLY what I’ve been waiting for…! Had a reading recently and the lady said I was “pregnant” with information. And now the time has come to share. I wholeheartedly agree! ….and yet….not a CLUE where to begin! I threw one little event so far. It was fun, and disastrous, all at the same time! Am soooooo ready to learn how to do this “right”!

    Thank you again and again….look forward to more.

  286. Rick Falls says:

    Hi Max,

    You know how they say “when the student is ready the teacher will appear”?

    I have been setting up for a relaunch of my company in a way that does exactly what you suggest.

    “Transform people with content rich results before they leave” types of events is what I live for and I think I’ve found the exact person to guide me through that next amazing level of life changing experience that I’ve been delivering through a less effective venue.

    Thanks Max for inspiring and guiding us to a place where what we bring to the world affects more people more profoundly.

    Talk soon my friend,

    Rick Falls

  287. I live for the loving amazing sold out live event that delivers a message to it’s audience that will not only transform lives, but transform life as we know it. I’ve seen it my whole life, please help me to realize this vision.

    Thank you!

  288. Sandra says:

    Looking forward to hearing more about sold out events. We love what we do, and find it so rewarding! Just hope to get the word out to as my people as possible.
