What is a Webinar?
A webinar is a live event, held online with the purpose of teaching or informing virtual audience members about a topic.
How Does a Live Webinar Work?
The participants of a webinar need to complete three main steps before they can take part in the session.
They are:
1. Receiving the Webinar Invitation
- The first step that needs to be followed by participants is to accept and open the webinar invitation that was received.
2. Registering for the Webinar
- Once the invitation that has been received is opened and the invitation has been accepted, participants will be taken to a landing page where they can enter details such as email address and phone number.
- To join the webinar, participants must click or tap a link to view the proceedings.
How to Create a Webinar?
Below are the five basic steps to create a webinar.
- Define your audience and consider their participant journey.
- Brainstorm relevant topics that will drive audience engagement.
- Create content: deck slides and webinar scripts for the presentation.
- Practice the material with your internal network and present it.
- Analyse the webinar event with event analytics to improve future webinars.
How to Create Webinar Content?
To create webinar content successfully, you need to:
- Understand your audience and where they are on the participant journey.
- Check whether they're existing customers, prospective customers or members of a remote team.
This will help you create more effective content.
Are Webinars Always Live?
No. Webinars are held live, simulive or on demand.
Webinar recordings or on-demand webinars provide flexibility for busy schedules, allowing participants to access content even if they are unable to attend the live session.
For example, you could pre-record a webinar and have your live audience communicate with you through Q&As or through an on-live session with visuals on the side during the playing of your prerecorded presentation.
