In this week's FWW, Eric and Jeff are joined by Gregory McPherson, author of the blog A Day in the Life and former high school classmate of Eric's. Greg has embraced the "Mac life" both personally and professionally and runs a successful RE/MAX Landmark real estate business. Over the past couple of years, Greg has shared some great tips on technology and other helpful programs with Eric. These tips and tricks will now be shared with our FWW audience and we're certain you'll learn some new ways of getting things done at both work and home.
Just some of the "new tools" that Eric is using now (thanks to Greg's suggestions) include the LiveScribe Pulse Pen for taking notes, use FolderShare (now called Windows LiveSync) for multi-file/computer syncronization, made the move to an Apple Macbook Pro, iPad (be sure to check out our archived session from 7/14) and so much more. So, bring something to take notes with, sit back and hang on... this session will be packed full of information!

About Free Webinar Wednesdays:
Free Webinar
Wednesdays was
created as a community building tool to bring professionals together to
share pertinent business development information, provide subject
matter experts with a platform to open a learning dialog, and inspire
small business owners to reach their professional goals.
Instantly boost your confidence and influence using irresistible body
language. Persuasion, influence and charisma can be yours with just a
few secret moves.
When your body language matches what your mouth is
saying…you can achieve the results you want–personally as well as
professionally.
Have you ever thought that if you just
knew the right words to say you would have no problem inspiring and
influencing others, building trust and creating lasting relationships?
If so, you’re not alone. In fact, this is exactly what I used to
think. I used to think that if I learned the right lines, everything
else would just fall into place. Sadly, not so…
There's a huge mistake you are probably making right now and you
don’t even know it. What's worse is that most people can see you making
that mistake and unconsciously recognize it INSTANTLY! This may come as
a surprise, but there’s a very good chance that others had already
decided to like and trust you or not—BEFORE YOU EVEN OPENED YOUR MOUTH.

So, maybe you're one of the lucky ones that has a new Apple iPad. Or, maybe you know someone who has one and you got to "play with it" once or twice. Whatever the case, and even if you've never even held one, this week's Free Webinar Wednesdays will explore what an iPad is (and isn't) and how this may be one of the next items to put on your short list for next cool thing to buy.
Join FWW co-sponsor Eric Cook (WSI Internet Consulting) - who just happened to get an iPad for his 40th birthday from his awesome wife - and fellow techie and iPad fan Jonathan Shroyer (CorePHP) as they discuss their iPads, programs and ways they are using them for business and pleasure. Eric and Jonathan recently "geeked out" while their wives were in a wedding a month or so ago and both being in the web and Internet space, have teamed up to help you better understand what this great little device can do.

How has business changed over the years with the advent (and growing popularity) of the Internet? Has social media had an impact on how people approach any sort of purchase these days - You bet it has! What about the "old school" ways of advertising or enhancing customer loyalty? Yup, that's all changed too...
In this session of Free Webinar Wednesdays, Eric and Jeff will be joined by the Chief Distribution Officer, Nathan Hanks and Manager of Strategic Partnerships, Lindsay Brown, of Reach Local. In fact, Eric has had the pleasure of meeting both Nathan and Lindsay in person at their corporate offices in Dallas, TX and under the WSI Local AdWorks brand, WSI consultants across the nation are helping businesses in their own online evolution get more customers and be more successful.
We'll discuss the ways that businesses...
Manage their digital presence
Advertising their products and services
Retain customers and keep them coming back
Nathan packs a punch with his presentations and attendees will certainly get their "money's worth" in this session. Be sure to bring lots of paper and have your caffeine intake ramped up, because you'll need it for this session. You'll likely come away with many ideas that will change the way you'll run your business moving forward.

In today's busy world it seems there can be an endless supply of "things to do", also known as projects. And with each project comes a variety of tasks, collaborators, deadlines and items that need to be managed. If you are getting to the point with your legal pad and Excel spreadsheet has reached their end of effectiveness, maybe you need to consider some sort of a project management system to help bring your project process back in alignment.
In this weeks Free Webinar Wednesdays, Eric and Jeff will discuss the concept of online project management. There are actually web-based programs out there that can help get you organized, facilitate collaboration with others (both inside and outside your organization) and keep things on track. Eric will talk about his experience with a system called Basecamp, and Jeff will introduce a service called Manymoon, which also features tight integration into Google Apps (a topic we have discussed several times here on FWW).
So, if you are someone that seems to have a lot of projects going on and needs a better way to keep them all on track, this week's session should give you a lot of great information. Bring your questions and even a sample project idea for us to discuss and we'll see you online!

This week on Free Webinar Wednesdays Jeff and Eric are stepping away from a formal presentation and opening up the mic to see what's on YOUR mind. While PowerPoint slides are cool and we've had some great presentations recently, we want to hear from YOU, our valued listeners.
Did something strike a chord recently and you want to talk more about it? Have some questions from a past presentation and interested in digging "deep" into a specific topic? This week's your chance to bend our ears and who knows, we may just get some good ideas for future presentations down the road.
So, bring your questions, comments and ideas to this week's session and let us know what's on your mind. Of course, we'll have a few things lined up to chat about to get the conversation started, but we are looking forward to your participation and making this session a real community effort.

With people spending more and more time on the Internet these days looking to conduct business and make purchases online, companies are realizing that it's no longer enough to simply have a "nice looking" website - it needs to be able to "do more". Your website needs to be a strategic tool for your business to help generate revenue, create lead opportunities or in some way demonstrate cost savings for the organization. Having an end-goal in mind that is business-focused, what we refer to as "conversion architecture", is something that your business should have in place to ensure you are getting the most out of your website investment.
In today's Free Webinar Wednesdays we'll be joined by one of WSI's top Internet Consultants, Doug Schust to go "deep" on the concept of conversion strategies and how to get the most out of your online investment. Doug has been involved in the internet service and consulting
industry since 1997 and has enjoyed the opportunity to share his
knowledge and strategies with thousands of companies all over the
world. Doug believes that there are a number of approaches that a
company can consider when developing an on-line strategy, however you
always need to start with the end user in mind and know how to interact
with them while maintaining best practices.
Marketing
was something that companies pushed out to people and or companies but
in the new world prospects ask for information when they want it, we
call that “marketing on demand” and/or “information on demand". Based
out of Kitchener Ontario, Doug has helped 100’s if not 1000’s of
businesses succeed on the internet and hope he can share some of his
experiences and expertise in helping you.
