Gordon -

The only seminar series that comes close that I know of is Ron LeGrand's series of real estate boot camps that add up to about $15,000 for about five different variations on real estate investment, buying & selling, marketing, lease options, discounted mortgages etc.

The implied benefit from learning his techiques is that you'll make $10,000, $20,000 or more per month IF YOU APPLY YOURSELF! And, he has some students that claim to have achieved the million dollar a year level.

He's a student of Dan Kennedy, Jay Abraham and others. Can't say if it works or not, as real estate is not my area of interest.

Re franchising, most franchise seminars are free or less than $100 as the goal is to sell you a franchise for several tens of thousands or more, not information.

However, I would think that learning a technique to make $10,000 and up per week would be worth a lot to people. The catch is (as in Tony Robbins franchised training programs) can you replicate the system to your customers' satisfaction; and (as in SQUARE ONE) is it really what the buyer wants to do, or just another chimera for a quick buck that will end in failure?
