You don’t want to pass up the opportunity to profit from your event. This includes being clever with your email campaigns to those who register for your event. You should create a confirmation email, a reminder email, a post webinar email for those who attended and for those who didn’t.

When delivering successful webinars you have to remember the webinar doesn’t start when the Presenter introduces him or herself it starts when the first participant logs on. You’ll want to capitalize on the participant’s attention when they first arrive. I have seen people sign into webinars up to 20 minutes early; rather than having them stare at 1 screen with the presenter’s bio, you should have a rotation of slides that offers information and prepares your audience for the webinar. There are many things you can present here but I would focus on providing general information about the webinar, sound check, questions, and ads.
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.
When delivering a presentation in a classroom or office you want to appear cool, confident, and collected, right? Well a webinar is no different and if you start your webinar unprepared you might appear unprofessional to your audience. By making a checklist or a “to do list” you can ensure your webinar will start smoothly. You may even want to create several checklists for your event. Here are some examples:
Audio quality is extremely important when you are delivering a live event; you want to have the best possible audio so your audience can hear your presentation clearly. The latest technologies for webinar delivery have made it much easier for us to record the sessions (both audio and video); however there are some things you can do to help improve the quality of these recordings (aside from being inside a recording studio) by improving the audio quality.
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? For some it is very hard to stay focused in a long class or training whether you are sitting in front of the instructor or your computer. Kelly Kirkpatrick writes “people become apathetic in the face of too much information.”
