Take 2: My Interview on SeminarsWithTheExperts.com

They say that if something can go wrong, it will… and sure enough, the laws of the universe conspired against Hilary Stewardson one more time in her series of twelve expert interviews she is providing free of charge at SeminarsWithTheExperts.com!

If you haven’t yet signed up for this, you’re not too late - although her series is almost at an end, the recordings are available from all previous interviews as well! Don’t waste a minute - go check out the hard work Hilary has put into this great resource.

Today we completed my interview… which was supposed to be done last night. I felt so awful!!

Those of you who have been listening in on this teleseminar series from the start know there have been many problems along the way - twice with the quality of the recordings; one where the interviewee was inexplicably unavailable - only to learn later he was in hospital; the first one was a disaster because Hilary’s long distance provider and Instant Teleseminar were incompatible; and then last week the Instant Teleseminar software went down.

I thought we’d seen it all - but no. Last evening’s interview had to be canceled because 20 minutes into it, my telephone went dead! Battery ran out - can you believe it? So I scrambled for the other phone tied to a different number… and yep - you guessed it - it went dead too.

I’m only laughing about it now because it all turned out so well in the end, but at the time I just felt so horrible!! On the positive side, our initial “dress rehearsal” helped up find a good rhythm together, and helped with the general flow of the interview.

I think Hilary did a marvelous job of it - and her series of interviews is an excellent example of what can be accomplished with a little work and a lot of style.

Hilary asked lots of insightful questions about my business, and specifically about how social networking influences my business. I hope she had as much fun as I did!!

Thanks again, Hilary - it was a real pleasure talking to you!!
