The Webinar is designed for sales producers and teams of all sizes of magazine companies.

Magazines sales isn’t what it used to be – and that’s actually a good thing. With the Internet and other digital platforms, you can actually sell more – and sell better. But, as we learn from our readers every day, selling the online brand is a work in progress. A little training couldn’t help. That’s why we’ve put together this 90-minute Internet Sales Webinar – for busy, time-strapped sales teams who would rather just close the deal but recognize they have more to learn about selling online.


Based on research and discussions with magazine executives at all types of media companies, we’ve designed 90 minutes of intensive online sales training from in-the-trenches sales executives with success selling online and a leading sales trainer who’s worked with dozens of media companies to propel their online media sales.

How does the Webinar work?

The live audio is delivered to your location over the telephone or your computer speakers. The Power-Point presentations are presented over the Internet and are available to print out before the program. This is like a talk-radio program with visuals on the Web. You and your team will be able to have a live Q&A with all the speakers.
You need Real Player or Windows Media Player installed on your computer. If you do not have either, please follow the instructions below to download and install them. Or if you prefer, a phone for the audio and an Internet connection to let you watch the slides and other information on the Web will suffice. No other downloads or special hardware - a dial-up connection will work fine.

  • One (1) toll-free connection to the seminar (if you select the audio connection.), and
  • One (1) Internet connection to the seminar.

Use speakers on your computer or speakerphone on your telephone and invite your entire staff to attend for one low price of $297.00 USD per site.

For the audio connection:
