Webinar How To – Increase Your Leads and Sales

How to run your own webinars…that is the question.

To begin with, you will have to create an interesting presentation that compels your audience to act. You will want to educate your viewers, but in the end, you want them to buy your product or services.

You have to walk the fine line of giving really great content as well as asking them to DO SOMETHING at the end of your webinar. That can be visiting your website, picking up the phone or driving over for a visit.

Next, you will want to find a good webinar hosting company that can support the size of webinar your want. You have lots of options: GoToWebinar, WebEx, Adobe Connect, and a few others. You can even hire someone to run your webinar for you.

Also there are webinar “how to” courses that show you every step and give you the reasoning behind each one. Make sure you choose a course that has lots of step by step video so you don’t get lost. Then turn the course over to your techie person, employee, secretary or teenage kid and have them learn how to setup your webinar!

Next, you have to have a way of recording the webinar so you can show the replay. Let’s face it, not everyone will be able to attend your webinar “in person,” so you can pick up a few more sales by offering a replay.

Now here’s a million dollar tip. Always have a reason to “buy now” in your webinar. Either the sale price is expiring in 48 hours …or you only have a limited amount of appointments left …or an extra special bonus will expire at the end of the week …anything to get them to take action immediately after the webinar.

And that’s why you want them “live.” A webinar is a live event and you control when they see it and what rewards they get for taking action. That is how a webinar differs from a video they can watch any time they want. Even a webinar replay is released with the understanding that a deadline is looming right around the corner.

Finally, you will want to follow-up with the folks who attended your webinar. Those who take this step almost always gather more sales, and it can be easy to do. When your customers register for your webinar, ask them for FULL CONTACT information. This way you can follow-up with a piece of direct mail, personal email, or a personal phone call.

The beauty of running a webinar is that it leaves you with folks who are “qualified.” If they have signed on for your webinar, spent 30 or 60 minutes listening, and spent time with you in follow-up, they will very likely buy your product or service.

So, these are a few webinar how to’s. Webinars are really not that complicated, and the rewards can be VERY profitable!
