How To Do It Right: Making Bad Webinars Good and Good Webinars Great

January 17, 2008

Association executives start to get giddy when they discuss webinars and learn of the potential revenue stream that can be developed for their association. What they are not doing, is looking practically at the big picture and determining how they can successfully build a webinar program that will SUSTAIN itself. Too many associations don't set reasonable expectations from the start, don't construct a well adept plan, don't understand how to produce a professional webinar and therefore are failing before they have even left the gate. This session will give practical knowledge based on two separate case studies, explaining how to get in the right frame of mind for webinars, how to develop a self-sustaining webinar schedule and how to produce red carpet webinars that keep your constituents coming back in droves. This is not a "Webinar 101" session, but a session focused on enhancing your webinar program.

In this webinar, you will:

Develop a webinar calendar/schedule that works for their specific association and industry
Avoid the common pitfalls that have led to poorly managed webinars
Learn how to establish an event timeline that results in absolutely flawless webinars
Gain insight into how archiving your webinar will enhance your overall webinar
