Conduct a webinar
Webinars are the core of business nowadays, especially after the pandemic. Live classes and webinars are a magnificent way to teach, coach, interact with your users, personalize your educational program, familiarize yourself with your audience and many more reasons to consider conducting the webinars.
But how do you conduct a webinar for beginners, that’s both informative and engaging? Here are five tips to help you run a successful webinar:
-
Write an outline or script. You don’t need to write out every word of your presentation, but having some structure will help you organize your thoughts and keep you on track during the live event.
-
Practice! Practice makes perfect, so practice in front of a mirror or ask someone else to listen in while you speak so they can give feedback on what works and what doesn’t work.
-
Set up early so you’re ready to go when the time comes! Make sure all technology such as microphones, projectors and computers are working properly before the start time. Be sure to test everything at least once more just prior to starting the event so that nothing goes wrong during the live presentation itself!
-
Create visuals that support your message and engage attendees throughout the presentation – preferably something that can be used again in future presentations (such as slides). It’s helpful if these visuals are easy
