EVE BUSINESS WORKSHOP 101
/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/
I am now taking participants for the third session of my "Trading 101 Workshop". Please note that I have now changed this workshop name to "EVE Business Workshop 101" to more accurately reflect the scope of discussions. I am a trader mainly, so I will work to have people from manufacturing and research and other ventures sit on the panel in order to provide a greater variety of examples. Remember, this class teaches you some basic tools and some basic concepts, but you CAN apply these concepts to anything in business.
Fee:
This class will continue to charge a fee of 1 million isk per student.
DO NOT SEND ME THE ISK NOW. Isk is collected after the class has started.
Why charge a fee at all? People are funny about value. If you get something for free, chances are you don't value it the same as something you actually bought. It's human nature and involves a funny part of human psychology. Anyway, I charge a fee because I want you to feel invested in the workshop. I want you to pay attention, remember what happened, and feel like that 1 million was worth every single isk. I want you to ask questions and actively discuss your own experiences too. Basically, the 1 million isk fee helps accomplish this goal.
/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/-----/
Date: June 6th Start Time: 01:00 EVE Time
Please note this is actually June 5th, 8:00 PM CST for me and some others. I am US based, if someone wants to lead a European session please contact me.
Format of the Workshop:
Total Duration: 2 hours Voice: Ventrillo or TeamSpeak (both free programs)
Part 1: Topic driven discussion by a panel of subject matter experts (SME's) from the market community (duration: 1 hour) - all voice - 1 hour long
Part 2: Question & Answer session - text and voice - 1 hour long
Topic List: 1. Supply & Demand (concept) 2. Diversification (concept) 3. Opportunity Costs (concept) 4. Understanding the Market Button (tool use) 5. Buy Orders & Sell Orders (tool use) 6. Trading Skills (skill discussion) 5. Trading Across Regions (final lesson
Notes on the Topics: The workshop is designed to be a progressive experience that allows participants to reach the conclusions contained within the "final lesson" on their own. The topics are designed in such a way that each one builds on top of the one before it. In all cases, concepts do use examples. It is stressed heavily however that people should avoiding using these examples; they are merely used to illustrate a concept and should not be taking as a "how to" step-by-step process for trading.
Panel Participants:
Past participants include Ricdic, Monoxon, Shar Tegal, and others (me too of course). The panel for this session will be announced closer to the actual session itself.

I'd like to tentatively sign up again. Missed quite a bit of the topic coverage from the last one. I'll try to have dinner all cooked prior to the start of the workshop this time around.

Small note here.
I've changed the topic list from the first two sessions based on feedback and the flow of the workshop. Previous attendees may wish to attend again to experience the "new and improved" workshop.
I'm still conducting a few experiments in the market before I finalize a draft for the 201 outline (to say nothing of the outline for 301)
See you there Shar!

The bar will be manned by no less than 150 exotic dancers (each in charge of a different alcohol) with 10 of them being dedicated to "shaking" martini mixes.
Also, as a refreshing change of pace, instead of you paying for a drink, we pay you for every drink you have!

If there is a seat, I'd like to participate! It would be great if an European Session could be organized, but if not, I'll happily attend the US session =)

I think you'd probably be a panel member given your extensive experience.

I'm trying to arrange a euro-friendly session. Stay tuned.
I do not do transcripts or recordings. I don't have a huge problem with anyone who attends the workshop and then posts about what happened or posts pieces of a chat log or records the voice component; I'm just not going to be the one to do it. It's a policy of mine.

Everyone who signed up in the thread for the last session was invited into a channel. We had about 13 people total last time. The session before that had 11. So far, no sessions have been canceled.
I'll announce a channel and mailing list soon. Gotta update it since I changed the name of the workshop.

We'll see about getting a Euro-friendly chap to run one. It's a goal of mine but right now in the early stages it's simply not practical for me to hold a Euro timed workshop.

It's a standing wish for me too, but if you won't be able to make it, the US traders will probably outsmart the european ones. I think that is the whole underlying idea with you not doing a ETZ workshop; to make US beat EU in trade! 
Seriously though, thumbs up for playing with a son and a wife, I think I'd die if I had to take care of a family AND Eve at the same time.  __________________ Sortiario Communication Consulting - SCConsult - But you can't fool all the people all the time. |

The trick is to teach the kids to mine for you. A couple of summers ago my nephews came and stayed with me for a couple of months. They were 7 & 9 and to them mining Veldspar with Armageddons was a great adventure. They mined a ton of minerals and had a blast but for me it was a better deal! Kept them quiet, they got to have fun and kill things (npc's in .8 belts), and I got free minerals!
A win - win - win situation for all of us.

Gah, I won't be able to make this workshop after all, real life issues have come up.
If anyone is planning to make a transcript of this workshop, please contact me in game with details about how one might purchase it. (or I'll just hope I can make the next one )

My sincere apologies everyone.
The worst case scenario happened today, I had to stay late at work with almost no warning and with no chance to communicate it. I'm a consultant in RL (not just IG) and my hours are often pretty hectic, which is why I schedule the workshops for 8pm my time generally.
I'll be logging in very shortly, if anyone is still around I'd be happy to hold a workshop.
Again, my apologies for the lack of warning and the tardiness.

Damn, this isn't fair, I can only get my wife to change my skill training! I tried to get her to change my market orders for me as well but she wouldn't do it. I'm afraid she doesn't like the game very much.
