One of the most important concerns you will ever have as a seminar speaker is: Who will attend my lectures or speeches? Knowing exactly who your seminars are for will help you narrow down your advertising and promotions efforts and ensure the success of your seminar. Here are ways to look for seminar attendees for your lectures:
Businesses And Corporations
Businesses are among the top attendees of seminars. Staff and employees from small, medium and large-sized corporations often go to seminars in order to improve their skills, learn new technologies and update their knowledge. Send your brochure or invitations to the Human Resources or Training department of these companies.
Clubs, Groups And Professional Associations
Your city or locality is home to clubs and associations that regularly meet. If you feel that your seminar will be useful to their members, why not send an invitation or brochure to these groups?
You could also set an appointment with the club president and ask to speak during one of their meetings. You could either give a short lecture; something related to the topic they are currently discussing or you could ask for a few minutes prior to the start of a meeting to promote your seminar.
Schools, Colleges And Universities
If your seminar is about leadership, motivation or getting organized, look for seminar attendees from educational institutions. You could also promote seminars that seek to improve skills or introduce new ones. Students are often on the lookout for training that will help them cope with their studies or improve the knowledge base they already have.
Trade And Local Fairs
Another great way to look for seminar attendees is to go to local and trade fairs. Find out which fairs are opening in your locality, bring your business card, brochures or invitations and distribute them. Maybe you could also arrange with one of the fair participants to have your invitations displayed in their booths.
If you have a product to sell, such as a book, CD or DVD, why not set up your own booth and distribute your invitations from there?
Local Radios And Tv Stations
Generally, promoting your seminar on radio and TV will mean casting a wider net. However, you could narrow it down by seeking radio and TV stations that cater to the demographics you are targeting. Arrange for a short interview with the DJ to promote your seminar. To perk more interest from potential seminar attendees, offer a few tickets as prizes for callers.
