Dr. Shonna's Training Institute

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Most new and aspiring entrepreneurs do not take the time necessary to learn and understand their target population. An erroneous belief is, "If you build it, they will come." This belief is partially true. It is important to understand that marketing your business to the perfect customer is an essential ingredient for your business success.

Understanding Who Your Customer is and What They Want

It is important to get inside of your customer's mind to truly understand what it will take for them to spend money on your products or services. Business owners must understand their customers' buyer's habits, hobbies, spending habits and values. Without this information, it will be quite difficult to sell your products or services regardless of how affordable  it is. 

Studying the psychographics of your customer will help you to understand why they buy. You can effectively reach your target audience when you understand the psychology behind their buying and spending habits. 

Course Goals

• Understanding the need to specialize your business in order to attract the right customer. 
• To learn how to differentiate your business.
• To learn how to identify your paying customers.
• To fully understand the need for business concentration.

What if I think a particular topic needs a webinar?

Students can talk to the course instructor, professor, the department chair, or anyone who uses webinars for their courses to make special requests and recommendations for new courses as well as additional content for preexisting course. 

How can I become a webinar instructor?

Students may ask instructors of webinar courses for an application to be an instructor.

All you need is a computer with an Internet connection (high speed service such as DSL or cable works best) and speakers. You may also use a headset instead of speakers, depending on your audio quality.

How can I ask questions during a webinar?

Some webinars have a Live Q & A session that is scheduled once per month. During this period, you may ask as many questions as possible. Questions will be answered during the Question and Answer period scheduled as part of each webinar. Keep in mind, it may be difficult to answer every question asked by the student participants. Feel free to send an email with your questions to the webinar instructor.
