3 Reasons To Run Your Own Webinar
We’re sure you’ve come across plenty of marketing webinars. They’re everywhere these days.
We use them at Lurn all the time.
But did you know that you can create your own webinars? Even if you have no experience and have never created one before...
Most people think they’re much harder to create and use than they really are.
And that’s absolutely wrong.
Today, we’re going to show you exactly how your business can benefit from running webinars.
Change Your Mindset About Webinars!
Think of a webinar like any other seminar you’ve ever attended.
There’s a speaker on stage and an audience listening (and possibly engaging).
A webinar is the exact same thing. You’re not on stage of course - the audience tunes in online.
But just like a traditional seminar, the audience signs up in advance and reserves their spot. They're then given a time and place (online) to show up. The webinar may have a limit for attendance, especially if the webinar is interactive or has a “Q & A” portion.
And the benefits of running your own online webinar can be seen almost immediately.
Reason #1 - You boost your brand awareness. Most entrepreneurs own small businesses with little name recognition.
By advertising a webinar that will provide value, you get your name in front of customers within your niche and introduce them to your business.
Reason #2 - You show the audience your expertise.
Customers want to purchase from experts. So use the webinar to show off your know-how. When someone joins the webinar and sees how much you know, they’re much more likely to buy.
Reason #3 - You can “pre-sell” your audience.
Webinars are a sales tool after all. And this is a great time to “pre-sell” your product or service.
After showing your expertise, you can explain all the products in your sales funnel. And after a great webinar, customers are primed to purchase. If they don’t purchase, they’re at least “warmed up” to your products and you can sell them later.
Be sure to check back TOMORROW…
We’re going to be dropping the 4 steps you can take to get your webinar up and running in no time…
