You Asked For Video Coaching…You Got It!
Dear Speed Seduction Students And Fans,
Your response to our ‘what would you like in a coaching program’ survey was overwhelming.
What you see here is a SAMPLE-a beta test-of what a monthly video coaching update module would look and sound like.
You’ll notice it has video instruction from me, along with power-point.
This one is based on a subject/topic from the 3.0 Course. But of course, I’d also do these modules where I answer students’ INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGES, QUESTIONS AND SITUATIONS in these update video modules.
They’d be posted in the member’s area for everyone to see.
Please, PLEASE give me your feedback here, in the comments section. Remember, this is just a sample I whipped up quickly. If someone wants to submit a good question to me, I’ll whip up a sample answer to student version of a video module.
There are tech issues about file size and other things my tech team is working on. I am working on more ideas, including combining a live video channel with a phone bridge. LOTS IS GOING ON!
Peace and piece,
RJ
P.S. Please, PLEASE give me your feedback below me in the comments section!

very very very good, thank you!

Ross,
Great first effort. I loved it. I’d also like for you to please make the powerpoint files available for download or viewing. It’s a bit difficult to see all of the words through these videos alone.
P.S.–My email address (seth_loren@hotmail.com) is listed twice on your mailing list. Could you please delete one of them, if that’s possible, so I only get one copy of your mailings. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Seth Beebe

Great idea. Like the presentation. can’t you launch this soon getting impatient waiting
17. October 2008 at 6:03 pm :
everything you say is priceless and truthful but I want to see your theories shown on the seminar board how are applied in real life situations filmed with hidden camera, how students at different levels interact in with women like for example stopping a roller-girl or a runner or talking to a clerk or any other kind of approach and interaction you talk about in your courses. you are a master and I believe you but i want to see beginners do the same things

Good Presentation but the Powerpoint Presentation was hard to read because the font was small also the web link was small.
17. October 2008 at 7:26 pm :
Cool. Your ideas are easier to understand with this. Thanks Ross,
peace and piece!

Dear Ross,
I have been a longtime fan of your work and this was just amazing! I feel you truly did an excellent job using the format but as you said this is just the test. I realize you will experiment with the process more but if I may make some humble suggestions. First the transitions between your video and written presentation were jarring at points but this is easily taken care of. Second although you took a good amount of time it still felt too short! Third the synergies of the concepts were excellent as well but I would have liked an extended exercise or maybe a seperate video menu to choose what to work on. All in all truly amazing work and I can’t thank you enough. Please please continue.

I intend to fully make the slides/powerpoint files available for download. Not only that, but I’ll have each video session transcribed so you can get the written version as well.
I belong to a few marketing coaching programs and they always make the material available in multiple formats, as far as possible. So if you do a webinar with them, they will not only make the mp3 recording available, but the powerpoint and a transcript will be downloadable as well.
I plan to do that for any and all phases of the coaching program, IF I do one.
Remember, I’ve got a HUGE vision here. A DREAM to mop the floor with the competition and raise the bar for client interaction/teaching/service/mentorship. But the tech for everything I want to do may not be there; we are looking at bandwith/server and some other issues and feverishly trying to resolve it.
Keep commenting! This is your chance to work with me to create something revolutionary. And as dirt cheap as I can do it to include as many as I can.

Andrei, this “hidden camera” request was made many times on the survey.
Here is the problem: hidden camera video creates a whole mess of potential legal problems.
1. In California, where I reside, it is ILLEGAL-a CRIME- to record the audio portion of a conversation without PRIOR(as in AHEAD OF TIME) written consent of all of the parties. You can record the video in a public place, but NOT the audio. Isn’t that weird?
2. There is the further issue of getting the right to use the likeness of any woman/women filmed afterwards. Using someone’s likeness ON AN INTERNET SITE without their permission is begging for a lawsuit. Using it on a site devoted to seducing women….can you say MASSIVE LAWSUIT?
That is just the start of the logistical issues……..
Now, I MAY have a way around it. What if I did a LIVE broadcast video seminar that you could watch, and I have women on as my guests that I do patterns with so you can see the responses in real time, ask questions on a phone bridge, talk to the women as well?
That would handle the issues…but it still would not be live, IN FIELD pick up.
If anyone has any suggestions on handling the legal, logistical and other issues for hidden in field video, I’ll consider it down at the bottom of the list.
‘
In any case, we’d have to do this OUT OF STATE. Won’t do it in California because of the criminal statutes.

Sir,
Got ya. Please bear in mind that, on this blog, a video can only be 500 by 320 pixels. On a member’s site, there is no such limitation, and we can make the video windows HUGE. This is one of the tech issues we are working to solve.

Absolutely we will do modules with multiple videos. Sometimes multiple videos within the same module, and sometimes we’ll extend the module over many weeks or months.
It is also possible to create some “elective” courses-say 6 weeks on Gold Walk Ups, with one new video lesson per weekend, and one follow up Q&A teleseminar per video lesson.
I really want to experiment with the synergy between Q&A telseminars and the follow up video lessons. Do we start with a video lesson and THEN do a Q &A teleseminar? Or do we do a teleseminar and use the VIDEO LESSON as a follow up to the telseminar?
I think a combination of both will do……
Hey..who wants to do a free telseminar some night next week answering questions and following up on this Video module on Cultivating Consciousness?
I’m really enjoying this..thanks guys!

Most excellent! Far better than I thought it would be. Really it’s like Speed Seduction cable tv only on the internet. I especially liked the part about talking in a low tone of voice…suddenly I remembered unknowingly doing that many, many years ago…and this female was just captivated with me…she was like …there’s just something about that guy…I really had no idea of what I was doing…man you really got those nuerons jumpin’.
17. October 2008 at 9:05 pm :
very good!
17. October 2008 at 9:56 pm :
Ross,
great stuff! Really like it! Thank you for your dedication!
The only feedback i would like to give to be able to make this an even better product (once you start selling it) is about the sound. Is there a way you can stop the fan on your computer? It comes across in the video and it is somewhat distracting. Also, there is some sort of high-pitched ringing that is distracting.
PS: I am also getting your emails twice on the same email account, would you please correct this? Thanks!
18. October 2008 at 2:53 am :
The point of the exercise is really clever! and the way it is done is genius! I’ve been missing the point of meditation for more than a year now…
I’d love to see how to train other levels of consciousness! Thanks a lot really!
18. October 2008 at 8:50 am :
I think thats the answer to all these tech issues, Ross move up the communications ladder and get yourself a digital tv station set up. I think it is an amazing idea and think of all the ad revenue you would get. Actually it would be cheaper to go radio on the internet, hey not a bad idea.
18. October 2008 at 8:53 am :
On a side not, do i take it that SS home study course and the old material is now defunct, or is it still relevant and/or that version 3.0 is simply a bolt on to the old methodology?
18. October 2008 at 2:00 pm :
I think that both the format and subject matter are helpful. I was not familiar w/ the “witness consciousness” terminology, but it already seems to be helping me to focus my observations and more effectively gather helpful feedback.
Thanks again, Ross,
Byron

Dan,
Defunct? NEVER.
The current SS course is foundational material. I don’t recommend you get the 3.0 Course unless you have the current SS course.
Then again, once you have the SS course, you are cheating yourself if you don’t learn what is in the 3.0 course.
3.0..a bolt on? Ha ha..maybe a “strap on”.
Seriously, 3.0 is very different in approach, technology, and has many profoundly different focuses and emphasis.
But some of the fundamental tools: embedded commands, suggestions, trance words, weasel phrases, anchoring, rapport, state control are there and ALWAYS will be there.
More on this soon….

Ross,
I love the New Direction that you are taking this. It’s incredible stuff. What would make it complete, is for the audio version of the monthly program to be available for MP3/Podcast download. That way we can have the information with us at all times.
Thanks,
JT

I have been meditating since I was in 2nd grade.
Not a bad video. I think that alot of people need to learn how to do it well.
are you talking about “monkey mind”?
good way of bringing it up.
19. October 2008 at 3:37 pm :
Ross,
I do think that you did a great job. and the Video Coaching would be a great add on to SS.
19. October 2008 at 6:16 pm :
amazing production ross… loved all the ideas
i would like to mention that the microphone that you are using to record those videos causes the audio in your end product to have a high pitch tone
play your video at an audible volume in a silent room and then press pause.. see… that noise goes away
you may want to have the mic on your computer checked out
i am only mentioning this so that your products can be perfect in every way
again… great post ross
21. October 2008 at 7:53 am :
Hey Ross,
This is brilliant!
I think this video presentation format will be a powerful addition to the coaching program. I also recognize that this direction (developing different aspects of consciousness) is one of the many things that vastly separates SS from all the wanna-be competitors.
keep smiling,
