Hangout Cash Code Is Coming!

Hangout-Cash-Code-Website-500-x-350For several weeks now I have been working on a product entitled Hangout Cash Code in partnership with Chris Cole.

At the beginning of the year, I set myself the goal of really mastering Google Hangouts as part of my 2014 business plan.  So when Chris Cole approached me to help him to build out Hangout Cash Code, I leapt at the opportunity.

Chris is a fellow coaching student who is talented in a number of areas such as video creation and graphics and he has high product creation standards.

Some of the tutorials within Hangout Cash Code are animated videos made with VideoMakerFX and others are Hangout recordings of trainings made with Mindmaps that cover a particular topic.  The front-end product will be an e-book on Hangouts that has yet to written.

Overall, I have enjoyed the process of using Hangouts and working with a partner is very beneficial because it provides a safety net whilst you are still learning.  For example, on one of our live webinars I was unable to share my screen so Chris immediately leapt in to rescue me.  If you are on your own, you have to somehow work this out on your own which greatly increases the pressure.

Also, having someone as the ‘cameraman’ who controls what the audience sees on their screen is important as is having someone to handle the questions while you are speaking.

The only way to master a technology like Google Hangouts and webinars is through practice until you become confident and comfortable.

By making this product, both Chris and I have gradually realised all the opportunities and possibilities that Google Hangouts can offer any business and we are both excited to be mastering this technology and to be revealing our findings through Hangout Cash Code.

The other benefit that we have gained from creating this product is to experiment with both Webinar Jam and Webinar Ignition – these are two front-end applications for facilitating the running of webinars and the registration process.

To improve the structure and content of my webinars, I am currently going through another training entitled Webinar Expert Academy but this has been hampered by the slow delivery of the training.  However, this is the funnel model that I will be implementing in future as a result of this training:

Having experiment with Google Hangouts and Google Hangouts on Air, I can easily foresee that this is going to be one of the main tools in my business going forward.

If you want to see why I am so excited by this technology, then look out for Hangout Cash Code which is due for launch on 1st August 2014.  If you join my list, I will keep you informed of the launch details and in the meantime you can read my free report entitled Badass Hangouts to whet your appetite.

Alternatively, you can read my free report called Webinar Riches whilst waiting for Hangout Cash Code to launch.

Webinars & Bad @$$ Hangouts

Google Hangouts have given marketers a low-cost entry into creating webinars – it’s a technology that I intend to master for my own business.

Webinars have great conversion rates and coupled with Google Hangouts, that rank well for keywords on Google, represent a great way to create content and to market your business.

Here are a few ways that we can use Hangouts in our businesses:

  • we can create lessons, either free or unpaid, that help our customers and demonstrate our expertise.  Google have taken this to the next level to create Google Helpouts.
  • we can create workshops and training for a Group of students.  I think this is the way forward for education – by providing recordings, students can learn at their own pace.
  • Hangouts are a great way of creating demonstrations of products – demos are a great use of the technology
  • what about creating marketing presentations with Google Hangouts?  You can cover the full benefits of the product and also handle questions and objections from the viewers.
  • one of my colleagues has just created an interview product that launched with 560 front-end sales – interviews are a great way of using Hangouts.  You can even have more than one expert in the Hangout – infact up to 10 people including yourself!
  • I haven’t yet mentioned webinars.  Prior to Google Hangouts, webinar technology was relatively expensive, with leading providers demanding hefty monthly fees. Google Hangouts have made the technology available to everyone.
  • communicating with partners and staff is now made much easier with Google Hangouts.  This is a great way of holding an online meeting or colaberation.
  • what about providing customer support through Google Hangouts?  I’ve not seen it done yet but it is perfectly feasible.  I have seen it used for a monthly Q & A session with customers to demonstrate product features and to get feedback.
  • you can also use Hangouts for announcements and news items.

In my mind, Google Hangouts is just a question of being prepared to master the technology – the more that you do, the better you will get.

You just need to be a little mindful of copyright – make sure that you do not infringe copyright with any of the material, images, music, background items in your videos.  It would be very easy to inadvertently infringe copyright if you do not remain vigilant.

With these thoughts in mind, I have added a report entitled ‘Bad @$$ Hangouts’ to my site – you can get it for free here.
