00:28:40 Jan Malkar: Matt is describing my life. 00:29:00 Emilie Winston-Cartwright: Right?! Lol 00:29:15 Christine Vespa: Mine too!! 00:29:17 Hillary Drinkell: Can so relate! 00:29:59 Emilie Winston-Cartwright: Also, one really informed, has done the research, sold on Montessori parent, then one skeptic! 00:40:34 Sarah Danielski: A couple of questions: 00:41:19 Sarah Danielski: Would you post on your website or share via email? 00:43:08 Rosanne Galluzzo: So families view the recording on their time. What happens next? When and how does interaction occur? 00:45:35 Kathleen Dzura: sometimes how you handle the urinating child seals the deal because you are calm, empathetic, aren’t upset etc—a real learning opportunity for the visiting parent as to how to handle life’s little challenges with children:):):) I didn’t miss your point, Matt! Just had to throw that in!! 00:45:49 Vivian Blum: So, I already have a virtual/video tour. I then invite the family (through an inquiry form) to set a Zoom session with me. That happens the next day or two. Are you suggesting that the virtual tour is viewed on Zoom together (sharing the video) and recording the whole session?? 00:47:36 Vivian Blum: I agree with Kathleen... it's those 'urinating' stories that family will use when they tell their friends about your school 00:48:03 Hillary Drinkell: Vivian, I am also conducting virtual tours. I am not recording them, but create a pdf of my tour and send to the family after the tour. I like Matt’s idea about recording the tour. 00:49:41 Emilie Winston-Cartwright: Forgive me if I missed this----do you recommend virtual tours be for just one family in a 30-minute window? 00:50:01 Alice Miller: I appreciate the long overview. It is motivational :) 00:50:18 Jan Malkar: I have loved all of this insight. 00:51:09 Dolores Vazquez: when you talk about highlighting the guides, will you include a short video of them talking or giving a lesson? 00:53:22 Emilie Winston-Cartwright: We launched virtual tours this summer and it was like a Montessori Cheez-it commercial "Not ready!" Lol I have will take August to get the Cyber Tour system tight because it is the first impression of our school. I agree----this is a process and all these details matter! I did not realize there was a "right" way until I jumped in and did it the wrong way. 00:53:32 Kathleen Dzura: thanks, Vivian:):):)Kathleen 00:54:37 Emilie Winston-Cartwright: *Have taken August oops! 00:55:18 Elizabeth Petruccelli: if incorporating testimonials , what should these look like? 01:01:25 Camilla Nichols-Uhler: I have to leave for another meeting! This was GREAT Matt. I look forward to next week. Thank you Matt! 01:05:53 Tanu Fernando: Matt, you may be touching this in the next session, but are you suggesting each virtual tour be customized to the parent viewing it? Do you mean opening slides their name etc? 01:07:35 Tanu Fernando: Thanks 01:09:53 Emilie Winston-Cartwright: This was a fabulous presentation and discussion. I have ideas already. Thank you! 01:10:05 julie einstein: Thank you so much! 01:10:12 Karen Bridgeo: What can we do from now until next week? Purchases? 01:10:14 Dolores Vazquez: Thank you soy much for all this information Matt! 01:10:25 Hillary Drinkell: Thanks Matt; such great information! 01:10:27 Anu Ramesh: Thanks so much for all the info! 01:10:38 Jan Malkar: I so appreciate this thoughtful presentation 01:11:10 Kasim Aslam: Sign up for free here: http://nidomarketing.com/ 01:12:30 Lisa Kessler: Is Part II next Thursday at the same time? 01:12:38 Meluri Meru: Thank you for the great presentation. 01:12:57 Kasim Aslam: Yes Lisa!

What’s missing is watching child with other children. Kathleen 01:15:17 Karen Bridgeo: Thank you! 01:15:51 Vivian Blum: thanks!
