There are many benefits of both live business training and online business training. Over the pandemic, the rise of online learning has made it easy to take a course at home but if you’re looking for something more than just a video, live events can be the way to go.
Online training has its benefits. You can watch videos on your own schedule, pause and rewind if something isn’t clear and ask questions if you get stuck but there are downsides too. You might be tempted to skip over the material because it’s not right in front of you, or you might find it difficult to stay focused on the screen when there’s other stuff going on around you. If you’re working through an online course at home with family members around, then this is especially true!
You can negate a lot of these issues by showing up and being accountable at a live business training event! Here is our list of reasons why live training is better in some aspects than online business training.
The Live Event Gives You An Experience the Online One Can't
No matter how good the quality of an online business coaching event is, it will never live up to the experience of a live in-person event. There’s a disconnect between people over the internet, not being in the same physical space creates a barrier to communication. It’s not as easy to ask questions, receive help, or interact with the other attendees.
You Will be More Actively Engaged
You will be more actively engaged at a live business training event. This is due to the fact that you get the feeling of being spoken to, not at, by the coaches. Live business training has more interactive and personal aspects, whereas online training is more passive learning. Live business training has a more hands-on approach and has a better learning structure which supports all different types of learners.
More Interaction
Live training grants you the ability to ask more frequent questions and interact with both the speakers and the other attendees. This will broaden your horizons and also gain valuable insights from everybody at the event.
More Networking Opportunities
Not only do you get a chance to meet other like-minded business owners and entrepreneurs, but you also get the opportunity to practice your interpersonal skills. You can use the time to get better at your selling tactics, build long-term relationships, and find people in the same industry as you. You will create genuine connections from deeper conversations, compared to online learning where there are limits on two-way conversations.
Interact With World-Class Business Coaches
At our events, you have a front-row seat to learn from world-class business coaches. Adam Stott is a successful businessman and entrepreneur with a track record of success since 2008. He has helped thousands of business owners grow and succeed. On our live events, you have the opportunity to ask him and our other coaches any questions on areas that you need help with, and you will get a personal crafted response on the spot.
You Will Be More Accountable
It’s no secret that online courses are a popular way to learn new skills and stay up to date on the latest trends but if you’re looking to take your business to the next level, attending live events is a must. In a live setting, however, the coach can identify the level of understanding you have of the information being given and whether you are actively following along with the training.
