Webinar is short for Web-based seminar. Webinars are just like seminars held in a conference room. However, participants view the presentation through their Web-browser and listen from their computer or through the telephone. A Webinar is interactive, you have the ability to ask questions, receive and discuss information.
A Webinar is a perfect learning tool. In the past week I have attended 3 Webinars: Marketing Webinar – Profiting From Niche Marketing – Using Public Domain Material to Make Products. I walked away with tools I can use today in my online business. I follow several people that have a Webinar series. I get emails whenever they are conducting a Webinar. I also find Webinars that pertain to my niches through Twitter.
Tips for attending a Webinar
Sign up for the Webinar as soon you get the sign up information. This will secure your spot.
Once you have signed up you will get an email with all of the attendance data.
Create a folder on your desk top to put information about the Webinar in.
Save that email in that folder so you have easy access to the Webinar information.
Mark you calender with the Webinar Date and Time….make sure you have the time in your time zone.
Webinars can move fast. Use a screen capture tool like Jing for PCs (http://www.jingproject.com) – Skitch (http://skitch.com) to capture images of the screen. This saves you from having to make notes. Move those images to the folder you created on your desktop for future reference.
Be sure to complete any survey at the end of the Webinar. This will help you get quality Webinars in the future.
Webinar Manners
Be on time if at all possible. Sometimes there are discussions at the beginning that are full of tips.
If you come in late, join the group with out disturbing them.
If you are listening to the Webinar on the phone, hit the mute button if you have any background noise.
Stay on the subject with your questions. The moderator will let you know when it is OK to move to a different subject.
Send your questions through your browser if possible. You will be given a space to do this. The moderator can keep questions organized and use them at the appropriate time.
