Tips For A Better Webinar

A Better Webinar A Bigger Smile

Yesterday I shared my article, A Webinar Mistake You Shouldn’t Make because it was a very frustrating ordeal. I hope that future webinar hosts read it and learn from it. I decided to take the experience and share a flip-side. Here are some tips to make your webinar a success. Now, I have never personally hosted a webinar. The tips you will read below are advice from someone who attends many webinars. I attend at least two webinars each week.

1. Keep information requirements simple
   1. Name
   2. Email
   3. Company (if you really need it)
2. Ask for attendee feedback during the event
3. Get to know the software you’re using
4. Don’t use speaker phone!
5. Make your slides nice. Don’t fall under Death By PowerPoint.
6. Have your needed applications open before the webinar
7. Deliver what you said you would
8. Keep it straight and to the point. Don’t keep it going for too long.
9. Stick to the topic
10. Don’t try to sell. Just inform and educate
11. Allow questions after the event
