6 Figure Detailing Free Webinar Interest

The webinar was a success. Many of you all had great questions and I was glad that I could help so many of you. I wasn't able to record the webinar but what I will do is record something with the webinar's content for those of you who had to go to work or couldn't make it.

Hope that helps!

Guess that depends on your own definition of success. According to the ones that listened to the webinar and have replied to this thread, it wasn't a success, just a sales pitch.

The truth is what you said you in this thread and what you actually offered in your webinar were two different things. Pretty much bait and switch. End of story.

You are entitled to your opinion. I only gave people free information and the opportunity to get more information that is our competitive advantage.

I've learned that you can't make everyone happy, even if you give them something that's free.

That's about all the information was worth.

It'd be one thing if you were just doing a webinar to give people the information you gave. But that's not what it was. It was purely a sales pitch for your coaching service. The was the point to the entire thing. Your motives were not what you implied them to be here in this thread. Plain and simple.
 
I listened while I detailed and will agree, no earth shattering information, but to be honest I wasn't really expecting too much. I figured there would be some sort of sales pitch involved. If you are brand new in the business or just thinking about entering, then there was probably some beneficial information to you.

Thanks for putting it on Mike, I'm sure some were helped; hopefully you continue to well in your endeavors.

Hey everyone,

After receiving a bunch of feedback from my last post I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in me hosting a webinar explaining in detail how I took my first detailing company to earn over $100k in less than two years.

If you're interested just let me know and I'll work on getting a webinar set up to show you some things that will hopefully help you grow your detailing business!

Enjoy your day!

So for the record:whs:,

The webinar was to explain in detail...in detail he said...how he took his first detailing company to earn over $100K in less than two years.

I suspected this from the start. Why make promises of such when all there was to it was a small power point like presentation.

Good observations.

Mike Phillips always says to under promise and over deliver to your customers. Just the opposite with Mr. Calloway. Good, but very basic information found on many threads here if only searched for.

Even you are entitled to an opinion, but not your own facts. The statements of your two posts above are not the same.

Fact 1- you did give people free information.

Fact 2- you said your webinar would explain in detail...again, your words not mine, and that's what folks expect...because that's what you said. Your opening post said nothing about you only hitting the high points and that more detailed information would later be offered for a price...no. Certainly, you have to have a way to get folks to take the step to watch first...take the bait I think someone eluded to.

If wasn't until after the webinar was over that you decided to come on this forum and mention that you also gave folks the opportunity to get more information...and then to defend you asking for money on the webinar which was never mentioned to anyone.

What little bit of credibility as a detailer you had on this forum, if any, you just lost it.


My question is what is he going to do with my name and email address?
 
Jarred,
You didn't expect much. Well, neither did I. I listened more out of curiosity to see what he was pedaling. It's the newbies they want...buy this book or that book, or pay to gain access to this private information...a get rich scheme for him. That's how many of them do it, buy selling a product...his is his information. To what credibility does he have to someone compared to a Jason Rose, Mike Phillips, Renny Doyle...at least their information can be backed up by years of hard work and dedication.

I said earlier his product was his information that he was trying to sell. Nothing wrong with that, but when he first posted about this it was about making $150k a year. When folks on the forum began to press him about the number he only made less than half of what he reported.

If I want to help people...I mean really help people on this forum...and I wanted to share with the detailing public...and the lurkers of the world...I'd first start off buy being truthful. Making a $150k a year isn't a $150k a year if you only made $70k, right? Oh! You mean he grossed that much...well, why didn't he say so in the first place. I'll tell you why...because it was meant to deceive, that's why. Period!

I'm done with this for fear of offending Mike on a personal level and my intent isn't to do that. I'm sure he's a very nice guy. However, I just think he'd have been better off to have been more upfront about what he was doing instead of trying to give me discount dinner tickets to a show so he can sell me on time-share. Can't tell you how many people I've talked to that hate those time share schpeels.
 
I thought it was a good summary of a lot of information you can find on the forums.

But I did start laughing when the sales pitch started.
 
I shut it off when the sales pitch started... Was hoping for more

I like to think I'm a fair person. So, with fairness in mind...yes I took a few notes. Mr. Calloway did, as I said earlier, have some good basic things to say about earning a detailing living. But I'm not going to give him too much room.

From a business stand point he may well have some great ideas that may even be worthy of our attention. The problem for me is that I'm not willing to just hand him my money.

Mike Calloway, for all we know, is just a screen name. Oh it could be his real name, I'm not that skeptical of him, but just telling it like it is. We don't know what we don't know. Trying to "keep it real" as this generation likes to say.

As I recall there was another young man on this forum and others promoting their 'articles' so-to-say. Again, nothing wrong with that.
 
:checkit:

Not one photo of Mr. Calloway on any of his webpages, nor photo's of employee's, no central business location given, only the area they work in is mentioned, and no phone number to contact them at all.

Which surprises me from some of the things he mentioned about Safelite Autoglass...with regard to branding, wraps on their vehicles, employee's wearing uniforms and such. Even Safelite gives people their phone number and tells where their offices are located.

RED FLAGs are all I see. Feed back please ...Mr. Calloway. That's contrary to what I've read of other notables books in this business. You'd think he'd want his face all over such a successful business giving them a sense of who he is.

I'll say it like this.
His website is nice, real nice, but it's far different from those like Zach McGovern here and other like Zach. Those guys are doing fine work, have great websites, and offer all sorts of free, no-strings-attached, information to forum members.
 
Yep, don't know who he is or if his number$ are real.

Am interested in his second business model. Get a hundred people signed up and your grossing $12,500 a month. Sound good to me.
 
I was skeptical when "he" sent me a reminder email to attend his webinar. It was pretty obvious there was a sales pitch hidden in there somewhere.
 
I find that a lot of marketers don't have spines, or souls, or any concern for you, or me, or anyone but themselves. They don't care if they deceive you out of anything from time out of your life to your entire life savings. They think they're special and will do anything, including stabbing their own mother, to squeeze just one more drop of blood from that metaphorical stone.

And maybe that makes me a bad businessman. But at least I can sleep at night knowing I didn't cause anyone to miss a mortgage payment or take food out of their kid's mouths.

I don't wish anyone ill, I am just a bit jaded. That's all :)
 
I smell a con. I hate people trying to get money out of me. I work hard for my money.
 
My one main concern Mr. Calloway, if you're so inclined to answer, is:

What do you really plan on doing with my (our) name(s) and email address and/or have you hacked my (our) computer(s) somehow?

Interested in his response as well.

Doubt we'll see him back though.
