Webinar How To Tips – Host and Conduct Your Own!
Webinars are not as hard as they look if you know a few webinar how to tips … and they can absolutely skyrocket your online or offline business. In fact, webinars convert attendees into buyers at a rate of 10% – 30%. Got your attention? Great, then let’s see what you need to host your own profitable webinar.
The first webinar how to is creating a killer powerpoint presentation. You have to walk the tight-rope of giving enough content so that your attendees will feel that it is worth their time and attention, but you must also create a hunger for more.
To be fair, you could not possibly present everything about your niche in just one 60-minute webinar. Nor could your attendees learn everything in that same amount of time. So it is to your benefit and theirs to offer an opportunity for “continuing education” at the end of your webinar. This education could come in the form of a book, an ebook, a home study course, or your services.
So, when creating a webinar, you need to balance the need for sharing good information with creating a desire to know more about your topic. And that desire to know more should translate into product sales.
The second webinar how to step is finding a webinar hosting platform. There are a variety of webinar hosting solutions for all types of budgets. Choosing the right one for you depends on how you will use it. If you plan on having a lot of people at the same time (over 1000), a pay per attendee per minute may be the way to go.
If you can limit your webinars to 1000 attendees and plan on having a lot of webinars per month, a monthly flat rate for webinar hosting would probably be the better way to go. Most of the webinar hosting companies have similar features, so it usually comes down to usage and attendance size.
The third step is to ask people to attend your webinar. This requires some thought and planning.
The best place to start is your existing email list. But what if you don’t have an email list? Now you know better! Lucky for you there are companies that can help you build this list. If you give them your customers’ physical addresses, they can return an email list to you.
In addition to your own email list, go to forums, blogs, or even yahoo groups that cover the same topic as your webinar. After you leave meaningful feedback of some variety, invite people to your webinar in the signature of your post. You can also use facebook, twitter, Google buzz, Squidoo, and Myspace as forums to find attendees. Announce your webinar there, and consider using an online press release.
Finally, remember your affiliates. You can work out reciprocal arrangements with your partners and even your competitiors. This will especially be popular if you show them what is in it for them. You could give them a portion of the sales or even set up a webinar where you share subscribers lists.
So these are the 3 essential webinar how to steps to creating and hosting your own webinars. None of it is rocket science, but do these 3 things and you will see your sales skyrocket like never before!
