If you would like to host a webinar, there are a few webinar tools you will need to be professional and effective.

Start planning your presentation by creating a webinar set-up sheet. On this sheet, list out the following:

- your webinar OBJECTIVE (sales, a phone appointment, education?)

- the TITLE of your webinar (This should describe the benefit of your webinar to your viewers.)

- the CONTENT of your webinar

- “your STORY” (credentials or how you had the same problem and overcame it)

- CASE STUDIES (results of how you, or the people you have helped, have solved the “problem”)

- EDUCATION (killer tips and tricks they need to know to help overcome the “problem”)

- ROAD BLOCKS to success (obstacles that will keep them from solving the problem)

- CALL TO ACTION (what do you want them to do? Visit your web site and buy your product or service? Call your office for an appointment? Sign up for a paid webinar class?)

Another webinar tool is a powerpoint template for your webinar ppt. Creating a webinar ppt is easy if you include these items:

-background graphic – Create or have someone else create an appealing, memorable graphic that communicates the message of your webinar. Use it as the background graphic on your master slide.

- your picture – Also on your master slide, use a professional-looking picture of yourself. Put it in the top left corner. Seeing a picture of your will help people remember you and your voice.

- bullet points that show when you mouse click – Use the “custom animations” feature in Powerpoint and make each line appear upon mouse click in the master slide.

-call to action URL – Write out your website’s URL at the top of your master slide so that your “call to action” can be seen on each slide. Your website should feature a buy button, a phone number to call, an email option form, etc.

To set up a webinar, you need the following tools:

- webinar hosting – A webinar hosting account lets you present your audio and video to hundreds of people at the same time. A few webinar hosting companies include: GoToWebinar, Manexa, Omnovia, Web Ex and Adobe Connect

-a web page for registration – Your webinar hosting company will likely provide you with a registration page, but I recommend creating your own. Remember to sell your webinar by showing your potential customers what is in it for them. This is known as being “benefit driven.”

-an autoresponder – Even after your viewers register, you will want to remind them of the coming webinar. Afterwards, you will definitely want to follow up with each one who attended.

So those are the essential webinar tools. Give them careful thought, set them up, and you will likely see HUGE results.
