This article highlights why a webinar service is beneficial. Hosting webinars is one of my favorite ways to make money online for many reasons. There are three reasons in particular why I truly feel that webinars are one of the most powerful trends, not only in home based online businesses but traditional brick and mortar businesses as well.
1. More control over interaction
There are a number of ways you can control the interaction with a webinar service. In teleseminars, suppose you want to give the listeners a chance to ask questions. You would have to un-mute everyone and if there were a large number of people on the call, the feedback would drown out any attempt to ask a question. You would not be able to hear anything but background noise. For example, on one teleseminar we all heard a man shouting at his wife. He had no idea we heard him because he was not listening when I un-muted the line.
A webinar avoids all of that by giving you full control over the interaction. If you want to answer questions you can do so without having to un-mute anyone. You do not have to hear any of the feedback and background noise that is associated with a call with a large group of people. You have full control over the interaction on a webinar.
2. Your listeners to do not incur long distance charge
How cool is that? People get tired of listening to teleseminars and paying all those long distance charges, especially people in the UK, Africa, or Australia. These are all places where I regularly have listeners on my webinars. Anyone can just listen over the internet, free of charge, with no special equipment required on his or her end. Another benefit of this is that at the end of a 1 to 2 hour call; your potential customers have not already shelled out some money to invest in you before you have even given your sales pitch.
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.
So what is the bottom line? The bottom line is if you are in business you should be using webinars. Every business these days has the ability to utilize a webinar service.
