A typical webinar: one hour, one pitch, and a room that empties out fast
"It's basically a webinar with a fancier name." That's the assumption a lot of people make the first time they hear about The ClickBank Profit Challenge, and it's an understandable one — there are a lot of live online events out there, and most of them do follow the same worn-out formula. This one genuinely doesn't, and the differences aren't cosmetic. They show up in what you actually walk away with at the end.
Quick answer: A typical webinar is a single one-hour session built around a pitch, and attendees leave with notes at best. The ClickBank Profit Challenge is a live 3-day event where you actually connect and launch a working funnel alongside John Thornhill and his son Alex, and leave with a real asset running under your own name, not just a recording to rewatch.
Side By Side: What Actually Differs
| What You're Comparing | Typical Free Webinar | The ClickBank Profit Challenge |
|---|---|---|
| Length | One session, usually 60–90 minutes | Three live days, October 6–8 |
| What you leave with | Notes, a replay link, maybe a PDF | A connected, working funnel under your own name |
| Entry cost | Free, no commitment required | A small ticket that filters for real intent |
| Format | Mostly one-way presentation | You build alongside the teacher, live, in real time |
| List building | Usually not addressed directly | Built into the funnel from Day One automatically |
| Follow-up after the event | Typically a single autoresponder sequence | An automated system built into your funnel itself |
| Community | Rarely included | Other beginners building the same funnel with you |
Why the Word "Webinar" Undersells What Actually Happens
A webinar, by definition, is a presentation. Someone talks, you watch, and at the end there's usually an offer. That format has its place, but it was never built to produce a finished, working asset by the time the session ends.
The ClickBank Profit Challenge isn't structured as a presentation at all. It's structured as a build. Each of the three days has a specific job to do — connecting the funnel, understanding what it's capable of, and learning how to keep it running — and by the time Day Three wraps up, something real exists that didn't exist before you joined. That's a fundamentally different kind of event than sitting through slides for an hour.
What "Isn't a Webinar" Actually Means for You
- You're not just watching. You're connecting a funnel under your own account, live.
- You're not left with a replay link. You're left with something running.
- You're not attending once. You're building progressively across three sessions.
- You're not alone afterward. You're part of a community that built the same thing alongside you.
- You're not guessing what to do next. The follow-up system is already built into your funnel.
One honest note
Calling this "not a webinar" describes the format and the deliverable, not a guarantee of results. You still need to show up for all three days and actually do the connecting and setup work for any of this to apply to you personally.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's a genuine structural difference. A webinar is a presentation format; this is a build format spread across three live days, with a working funnel as the actual outcome rather than notes or a replay.
Each day builds on the previous one, so attending all three is how the funnel actually gets fully connected and set up. Missing a day means missing part of the build.
Additional offers may be presented as part of the broader funnel structure, but the core value of the three days is the live build itself, not a single sales pitch at the end.
A connected, working funnel under your own name, the beginning of your own list, and an automated follow-up system, rather than just notes or a recording.
Yes. The Challenge is built for complete beginners, including people whose only prior experience with live online events has been standard webinars.
