I know a lot of people who have built huge businesses just going to seminars (speaking and attending). My point was it's not the "only" way to do it. And, for some people, may not be the best way, either.

I know a lot of people who have built huge businesses just going to seminars (speaking and attending).

My point was it’s not the “only” way to do it.

And, for some people, may not be the best way, either.

You'll never fall asleep, even if you're on medication. But hey, just to counter your point, you do get clients from attending seminars--if you are a speaker. I can track at least well over $20k to one seminar alone. And no, it wasn't a pitch at the seminar. This $20k was from conversations in the lounge :) Sean<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('434','Sean D\'Souza'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('434','Sean D\'Souza','Well Ben, you haven\'t attended a Psychotactics seminar have you?

But hey, just to counter your point, you do get clients from attending seminars–if you are a speaker. I can track at least well over $20k to one seminar alone.

And no, it wasn’t a pitch at the seminar. This $20k was from conversations in the lounge :)
