More Amazing Features Of Webinars

In this article I continue to discuss the benefits of a webinar service. I enjoy using webinars to make money on the internet for a variety of reasons. I highlight below three reasons why I believe webinars are great tools not only the home business arena, but also practically all types of businesses.

1. More control over interaction

Webinars offer a great deal more control than the traditional teleseminar. When I used to run teleseminars, I would get to a point in my presentation and then offer the chance for listeners to ask questions. Then I would un-mute everybody and if I had more than 100 or 200 people on the call, all you could hear would be inaudible noise. You could hear all the reverberation, all the feedback. One time, a man was not listening when I said that I was going to un-mute everyone and when he was un-muted, he was shouting at his wife. So all of us who were on the call heard this guy yell at his wife and he did not even know it.

You have very little issues with interaction control on a webinar. You have the ability to field questions with no interruption to the presentation whatsoever. You do not have to worry about dealing with background noise and feedback because everyone remains muted out. You decide who gets to speak and who is silent.


2. No long distance charges

This is huge! One reason why people do not get on teleseminars is due to the long distance charges, especially if the caller is from another country. Webinars can be connected to for free. The only requirement for a webinar service is access to the internet. This is important especially if you are going to be making a sales pitch because you do not want the participants calculating long distance charges when deciding whether to buy your product.

3. Send people directly to your website

At the end of your webinar, you have the ability to send your listeners directly to your webpage. If you are going to sell something at the end of a webinar, for example, an information product, you can send people directly to your sales page. On the other hand, if you are running a regular teleseminar, after they hang up the phone, then they have to take the extra steps to go to their computer, get online and go to your website. That is a lot of steps in between. There are many ways your potential customers could get distracted. If they are already on your webinar, boom! They are already on the internet. They are already locked in. All they have to do is go to your website. You can do the same thing with your retail or offline business. If you are telling them how to use your professional services, you can send them directly to an appointment setting on your website.

Here is the deal. I believe each and every business should consider using webinars as a part of their marketing strategy. There are benefits to all types of businesses to use a webinar service.
