Hi George,
good to see you here, it has been a while, I believe is a great idea to have hypno TV 24/7. It is great to bring awareness to people about hypnosis. You know as a HMI graduate I am a Fan. Keep up the good work.

Cheers

Michael Z.

Hello George,

I had no idea this existed. What a brilliant idea! I will certainly make regular visits and give more feedback once I have explored it more. So far, it looks very, very useful.

Thanks,
Fiona

Hi George,
I love the idea and enjoy watching. I see the daily schedule and sometimes find it challenging to sit and watch at a specific time, and then again sometimes I randomly turn it on and become glued to a particular airing. It was one thing sitting in class taking tons of notes which was utterly enjoyable on daily basis, and it's another thing to just watch and discover something missed or to be reminded of something that has more relevance now in the daily living of life.

It would be nice to have a daily menu of programs as there is now but to be able to pick and stream any one of the programs for that specific day, any time within that day. But I'm so used to getting what I want and or need, you would be just spoiling me......and I could learn to enjoy that if I had to.

Thanks George, hope all is going well, your dream therapy class is still one of my favorites.
Steve, (2007 grad).

HMI Web TV has been really helpful to me, it is available anytime I have the time to watch it and there is always something new and informative. I am currently a student in the distant training program and I have nothing but positive things to say about HMI in general! Great Training, great staff and awesome webtv! Thanks-

Hi George,
Great idea and yes, I have watched a few things on it. I love the fact I can see what's on according to my time zone. Makes it much more personalised and easier to use.

Cheers

An excellent resource George! To bad that only a minority of hypnosis trainers realize that the more you GIVE away, the more you make in the long run. Excellent!!

Hi George,

I love the idea of Hypnotherapy TV. You have the resources to produce quality content and you do. Kudos for going all out and investing in this 100%

I think it's a great idea, and I want to watch. I love hypnosis and I would rather do it than anything else. But for some reason, I'm not watching. I get your emails, put it on my calendar and forget.

I think I just figured it out!

You said it in your introduction to the Mental Bank on the training DVD: Homeostasis.

I'm busy doing other things and since your recent recordings are question and answer format, even though I think some of the answers will be helpful, I have time issues and want to maximize my time. I don't see enough value in it for me - even though I intrinsically know it is valuable information. It's not persuasive enough to get me watching - even though it seems like it should be.

I do realize that your other programming must be vague enough to not give away your training, yet have enough content to motivate people to seek out training at HMI.

Watching it now, I realize that you do have some neat content. You really have done a good job.

I am a marketer and I would give you these three suggestions:

1) I don't know what programming you have coming up. I have to watch and see. While I do see some interesting pieces, I don't know what you have and I have no options to choose the content I would like to see. It would be helpful.

2) I can't pause or turn the sound down on the content. The interface needs some work.

3) Most importantly, what exactly are you trying to accomplish with the HMI TV? You have the resources, you are proving that you can create quality content, but what market are you seeking to serve and what is the best way to attract THAT market.

Right now you are proving that you can create a quality product. But I've seen many products fail because they were made without thinking of who they were serving.

If your market is those curious about hypnosis who would join hypnothoughts, what specifically do you need to provide and what do you need to say to attract their attention?

Hope that helps!

Thanks Michael, Much good food for thought. Only thing I can say now is, you can turn the sound down. That's the sound on your own computer. Also, we are scheduling certain things at certain times. Live Therapies at 9 a.m., and 12 p.m., 9 p.m. and 12 a.m. everyday. Also the 101 course, everyday at 10 a.m. and 10 p.m.. I don't want to offer it on demand for a variety of reasons. We have some new programs to be released in the next week as well. These will be in the talk show format. I even have plans for a Hypnotherapy game show called "Ultimate Graduate."

Thanks again for your feedback. I have much still to ponder.

George
