For the purposes of learning here I wanted to give an outline of how this webinar went and how you can use for business.
This likely will be applicable if any of you have a service business or education product that you are looking to sell.
He found me on Facebook. It was a simple ad offering a free webinar on how to grow an email list. The key wording here was "do what the professionals are doing to build a list". With this in mind I clicked on the link and signed up.
I was pissed for the first 30 minutes of the webinar.
It was like an introduction to a blog post. Fortunately I had some work to do in the background, but this information was an absolute waste of time. I was here to grow my list and get information on how to do so, instead Mike had a prerecorded talk where he went over:
With at least something gained out of the webinar I stayed tuned for more BS that really didn't take us anywhere. Until finally he suggested having a subscription group that you charge your members to stabilize your income (Valuable Insight #2).
And though I thought I wasted a lot of time, I did however get two really good ideas for my own business:

- Why building a list is important (obviously I know this or I wouldn't be there)
- His history - how he built a list at age 27 that produced him x amount of dollars (I don't care)
- More useless information. He did however say that his results are atypical and that you should expect to fail (LOL)
- Landing page
- Traffic
- Niche
- Money

And though I thought I wasted a lot of time, I did however get two really good ideas for my own business:
- Having a lower priced product that I can lead people to from Facebook will pay for my ad cost.
- Creating a group, a subscription service would likely be a good direction for me to go.
For our purposes here there is a lot to learn:
- Facebook to webinars is not a bad strategy
- His whole webinar was like a sales copy (didn't work for me, but I imagine it worked for others)
- I don't really like him or trust him after this, but I haven't removed him from my email list
