you have one, take off! But if you don’t have one,
realize it is your responsibility to grab a shovel and
build one for yourself and for those who will
follow after you.”

2. Do you take advantage of the opportunity to learn and share through the NGH Convention Teleseminars
and Webinars?
If not, you are truly missing an amazing opportunity.
They are all easy to access either online or by phone. You can participate live, even asking questions of
the fascinating speakers. Or you can catch up later, playing the recorded teleseminar or webinar at your
leisure, stopping and starting it to take notes or to fit your schedule. The call-in number for all NGH
Convention teleseminars is:
1-206-402-0100
Conference ID: 191630#
One of the highly informative webinars we have enjoyed so far this year was a two-part presentation by
NGH member Paul Ramsey. Paul shared his extensive knowledge on Google Hangouts, a tool he uses
and recommends to all consulting professional hypnotists for getting more clients, building their lists,
driving more traffic to their websites, and positioning themselves as experts in the field of professional
hypnotism. Describing himself as an admitted Google evangelist, Paul has been using Google Plus since
it was in Beta test platform.
You can view Part I of Using Google Hangouts at: www.budurl.com/ramsay2013.
To spark your interest in the insights Paul shared or as a reference for those who participated in the live
event or have since viewed it online, we are providing you our notes from the teleseminar.
Notes: Part I of Using Google Hangouts
 Hangouts is Google’s new platform. Even though it has been around awhile, if you jump on the band-
wagon now, you can still consider yourself to be an early adopter.
 Don’t confuse the purpose of Google Hangouts and Google Plus as being like that of Facebook.
Although Facebook is used for business, it was created as a social platform. Google, from its core, was
created for Search—which is a learning and business function, not a social purpose.
 Facebook is about connecting with people you already know. Google Plus is about connecting with
people you may or may not know, but who are interested in the same content that interests you.
 Google has many, many tools and benefits, giving you more and more functionality. Because Google
earns its money from paid search advertising, Google has every motivation to keep you on its site,
using its tools and functions, and using Google search. With this in mind, all Google functions have
become increasingly integrated. Google wants you to live in its ecosystem, aka, the Google house.

3.  Eight of the most popular functions are:
Gmail (free email); Google Search;
YouTube video; Google Drive (which
used to be Google Docs and is used for
document sharing on the cloud);
Google+; Calendar; Hangout/HOA; and
Google Maps.
 Google wants you to create an account
and login. (You’ll find this feature on the
top right of your Google search page
along with other functions.)
 Don’t miss the “More” button on your
Google homepage with all the other
functions.
 When you are signed in, you have easy
access to all functions off the black
search bar at the top of the Google
Search page (Google+ is not on the
black search bar.)
 When you are signed in to Google, your
name and a plus symbol will appear on your Google Search page.
This is your access to your Google+ account.
 A Google Hangout is a live video conference that you can have with up to ten people participating.
Google Hangouts is free and lets you do what Skype charges you to do.
 Google Chat is also a function of Google.
 Chat includes Google Voice and Chat.
 Google Hangout is so valuable you can access it from several places in your Google account.
 On Google Hangout, you can hang out with one person and when you do no one else can see you.
When you are through, the hangout is over and it is gone, leaving no record (if that’s what you choose).
But if you want to hang out with many people (up to 10) you can do that too. There are also different
options for recording your hangout.

4.  How your Google Hangout appears is
determined somewhat by your browser.
 To start a hangout, you can type in a
name, a circle (a group predefined by you),
or the Gmail addresses of persons you want
to include.
 If you make a hangout public, it shows up
in the stream of others invited to the
hangout. They can choose whether to chime
in.
 You can make your hangout “live” or “live
and recorded.” If you check “Enable
Hangouts on Air,” the hangout runs both live
and is recorded to your YouTube channel.
 After you record your hangout, you can
view it, edit, share it or make it public or
private in your YouTube account.
 When you hang out with your group, the photo of the person speaking automatically shifts to the main
screen. Lower on the screen is the “filmstrip” that shows the live video feeds of all participants.
 On the left of your hangout page you’ll find your application tools to enrich your hangout experience,
including your “chat” feature.
 You can screen share your PowerPoint presentations on Google Hangout.
 Capture is another fun feature; think of it like a photo booth for your hangout.
 Google Drive is another great teaching and facilitation tool. This lets you show documents to others and
even makes the document sharable and printable by others in the hangout.
 You can use the YouTube extension to share a video with everyone in your hangout. The video plays

 Google Hangout is not only a way to experience and share with others … it is a way to create content.
Intrigued by our notes about the Google Hangout experience—a tool you can use in creative ways to
expand your network of clients and prospective clients?
We’ve only touched on part of the valuable information Paul Ramsey shared. If you are not already using
Google Hangout, you are missing out on the tremendous potential of this tool. And if you are using it, you
may still want to replay the NGH webinars with Paul (Parts I and II) to learn from the depth and breadth of
Paul’s hangout expertise.
In Part II of our series on Google+ Hangouts, we’ll examine some fantastic success stories about peo-
ple who have used Hangouts in amazing ways. We’ll discuss how you can use Hangouts, how to use them
to build your list, and how to raise your profile as an expert in hypnotism. We will do all of this demonstrat-
ing a real, live Hangout! This is where the rubber meets the road, and we’re excited to share it with you.
