My Pegging Webinar game is expanding, and changing!
I have been teaching a Pegging Webinar for a little over a year, now. Pegging is my passion, and I have so much information about it that I am eager to share with anyone who is interested!
Initially, I offered free admission for givers if they sent me an email, and asked for $15 from receivers, but they could always request a free ticket via email, too. As a result, most of the webinars I taught brought in little or no money. That wasn't an issue for me. Having a paywall between the information I offer and those who seek it has never appealed to me. I answered the emails and gave out the discount codes.
Offering the webinars for free flew in the face of the general belief that instructors/experts should get paid for the knowledge they possess and offer up for public consumption. Plus there's the idea that consumers don't really value something if they don't pay for it. I resisted those axioms.
Things went okay for a while. Then I decided that gendered pricing was unacceptable in today's world…at least the sex positive world I live in. So I did away with the need to email me for a discount code, and just allowed everyone to register for the webinar for free. Simpler, right? No emails to answer, no discount codes to relay. Easypeasy!
Here's what happened.
Suddenly the registration numbers increased dramatically. I even hit capacity a couple of times. That's 25 people! But the people who actually attended the webinars comprised about 20% of the number of people who registered. Once I had 25 people registered and 6 people showed up.
At this time I also began to offer my Advanced Pegging webinar, which required quite a bit of time and of work to put together. I'm proud of it! I guess it was the combination of working hard on that webinar, feeling really good about what I had to offer, and then feeling like people weren't taking it at all seriously. Not fun.
So - I've made some changes.
- I will offer both webinars twice a month for the price of $15 for Beginners (90 minutes) and $20 for Advanced (2 hours).
- I will continue to teach free webinars. The free ones will only be offered quarterly, with no limit on the number of attendees.
Okay, I want to attend a Pegging Webinar!
Encouragement for the Webinar-Nervous: I would like to encourage all of you who might have an aversion to jumping into the world of webinars - it's reasonably easy to do, even if you have never attended a webinar before! Go for it.

You deserve to be paid for your time and talent. Information you provide is offered anywhere in the same understanding and respect that you show.
Thank you kindly!
So I’m going backwards in Ruby’s podcast land so I’m just getting to the things from last year. You definitely should be paid for your webinars. I took the recent free beginners webinar and it seemed worth it to me to become a patron. Thanks for what you do!
Thank you!
Well, in the grand scheme of things, it works out better this way. I end up getting paid, just round about. And I get to spread the word to more people. Between Patreon and toy sale commissions, my rent is almost paid. Not bad for a sex educator!
I’m glad I ran across this outstanding podcast. I’ll share it with my wife.
Yay! Hope you are enjoying the podcasts!
