7 Tips to Conduct a Successful Webinar

2 replies
The use of webinars by firms is growing at a rate of 20-30% per year. It seems like not a major event, but a successful webinar can be many times more effective in results and numbers as compared to a live seminar if executed effectively.

For an individual who's going to present a webinar for the very first time, the online experience can be just as nail-biting as its offline counterpart of corporeal demonstrations in a room jam-packed with strangers. It is quite important to choose a service provider for webinar hosting but defining your objectives and planning what your content will be to conduct a successful webinar is far more essential.

Following are some of the tips which you may find quite productive in conducting a webinar.

Check the Audibility

The sound is an essential part of the webinar. Just to make sure that everything goes well, keep in mind that you choose the right location where you can easily conduct a webinar without any hindrance and technical problems. It is better if you want a sound proof room because it will help you record the webinar and also gives a more peaceful environment.

Technical Assistant
Keep in mind that you are focused only on the delivery of the content. You must have a technical assistant to look out technological issues if they occur in real time.

Microphones
Do not rely on the built-in microphones. Equip yourself with high-quality orator phones so that you may not find any problem while delivering the content.

Practice
Practice as much as you can as they say, “Practice makes a man perfect.” To check the effectiveness of your voice and to remove the pauses such as, like, you know, umm, err, etc. You need to practice your speech few times before the final presentation. Ask someone to listen to you and to analyze your speech critically. Ask for the feedback as soon as possible so that you can work on the redundancies of the speech.

Hold the Attention
It is a big challenge to keep the attention of the listeners. Limit the text in the slides. Avoid overloading the slides with bullet points. Try to involve the audience with the interesting questions related to the topic, mini challenges and tasks, rich text and compelling videos.

Maintain a Colloquial Tone
Keep in mind that your audience is humans and you are not talking to robots. So, personalize your tone and make it casual. Break up your presentation by asking questions because no one likes to hear from the same person until the very end, no matter how smooth is his voice.

Use Facts to Support Your Speech
Hearing real life stories is always overwhelming. Filling up your webinar with numerous graphs and figures will not captivate the attention of the user. Try to tell the facts to the audience as it will help to support your message and hold the attention of the listener as well.

If you have read all the points given above, you have equipped yourself with all the necessary knowledge to conduct a successful webinar. Follow the tips given above to make sure that you ace the upcoming event.
