Select a Webinar Delivery Style
Each webinar has four human elements: Organizer, Moderator, Presenter, and Technical Support. Though it is possible for 1 person to run the show I strongly suggest using more than one staff member for these varied tasks. You always want to appear professional in the eyes of your participants so they will attend future webinars or be more likely to purchase from you.

Have you ever sat in a class or training seminar that was over 3 hours long? Did you leave that training feeling like you were going to retain all the information only to find that days later you only remember a few points?

Kelly Kirkpatrick writes “people become apathetic in the face of too much information.”
