When you are hosting an Onstream webinar, you need to be able to reach your audience so you can increase the attendance at your event. Because of the way people are using social media, these outlets are a great way to reach a highly targeted audience and effectively promote your webinar. However, you need to make sure the people you are targeting actually use these social media sites before you spend your time promoting on them.

Social media, especially Twitter, can be a great way to promote your Onstream webinar in a way that will reach the largest audience with less effort. Because people are on Twitter all hours of the day and night, looking for items of interest and sharing their lives with others, it is important to post to Twitter often. However, you don’t want to make them all promotional. Instead, create posts that include helpful hints, useful information and even quotes, as well as your promotional posts. Use one promotional post after every two to three informational posts, sending them out about every two hours.

When you are hosting an Onstream webinar, you want to get the word out to as many people as possible, especially to those who are most likely to benefit from your webinar. Many businesses use social media, mailing lists and both free and paid advertisements to let people know about the webinars they hold. However, these aren’t the only effective ways to get the word out to more people. Because many business people make use of the major news sites, such as Google News, making sure your webinar information is featured there through press releases can expand your reach.

It would seem almost impossible to hold regular department meetings without incurring the costs of travel and productivity downtime.

Some business professionals still feel that face-to-face contact is the only good way to build solid business relationships. These relationships are essential to the success of many businesses. However, the use of the Internet and social media networks has expanded the reach of businesses and allows them to interact with potential clients and business partners across the globe. Just like with face-to-face meetings, these meetings occur in real time and allow your users to interact with each other.

Virtual events are some of the hottest developments in the online business world. Offering a number of advantages over traditional marketing methods, such events can benefit your business in many different ways. Here's a list of ten ways by which virtual events can be beneficial to you.

1.  They enable you to reach a wider audience. Thanks to viral marketing solutions such as social media, the Internet, online press releases, and various other forms of online advertising, you will be able to reach more people easily.

2.  They are generally inexpensive. Whether you are the host or an attendee, it will cost you very little to take part in a virtual event.

3.  They do not require you to travel. Since they can be accessed from anywhere, you may attend virtual events from your own home or office.

4.  Virtual events can be repurposed. By recording and archiving your virtual events, you will be able to use them for whatever purposes you see fit at a future date.

5.  They can help you generate leads. Since these events enable you to collect information for your database, they will provide you with essential information for lead generation.

6.  They provide you with instant feedback. With the use of tools such as polls and surveys, you will gain valuable information with regard to what the participants think about the event.

7.  They enable you to share documents and other materials more easily. This will allow participants to get the most out of the event.

8.  Virtual events are better on the environment since they use fewer resources.

9.  They help increase your revenue, by giving you more opportunities to sell your products and services.

10.  Finally, virtual events enhance productivity by allowing your staff to spend more time in the office instead of planning and traveling.

Clear, concise, and visually stimulating – these are the three main attributes of an authoritative PowerPoint presentation that will instill your message into the viewer's mind.  We all face information overload every day. This is why most people only briefly scan an email message. They read the first sentence, the last sentence, and possibly a few sentences in the middle. Keep this thought in might as you develop your PowerPoint presentation. Make your presentation powerful without bombarding the viewers with more information at one time than they are prepared to receive.

If you have read our article “The Do’s and Don’ts of Webinars”, you probably have a strong foundation for getting your first Onstream Media webinar assembled. A solid topic, salient speaking points, a good title, an engaging presenter; everything you need for success, except the most important item: An audience.

It’s as fundamental as your topic that you have set up a solid plan for getting the old adage into play: “If you build it, they will come.”  This happens through several relatively easy, inexpensive routes that market and promote your webinar, namely through use of the Internet and print media.

You will want to leverage your inclusion in social media networks, such as LinkedIn, Facebook, MySpace and Yahoo Groups to give the who, what, where and when of your webinar.  Targeted audiences like those already in your online social groups are tailor-made to the topic you will be presenting.  Use those same online resources to advertise calendar events, and Twitter teasers and firm dates to the webinars.  Do not overdo it; you don’t want your well-meaning reminders to become a burden to your social groups.

Personally invite your closest colleagues, mentors, customers and contacts through email or regular mail.  If you choose regular mail, set a date a week ahead and remind the recipients by email.  Be sure to mention your webinar event on your company’s home page, and provide a link to register.

Advertise in trade publications, print and online newsletters, and be sure to avail yourself of the power of the press release, both on your own website and on those of industry information sites.  If you are in a tradeshow before the webinar, hand out flyers with pertinent information, the most important of which is the when and how to register. Be sure to use free (or low-priced) sites such as Eventspan, Webinarlistings and Webinarbase to get the word out to as many targeted folks as possible.

One of the most important tasks assigned to managers is employee training. In every division of a particular company, there is a requirement for personnel trained in responsibilities specific to their roles. This is the same for accounting, advertising, sales and customer service departments. In order to ensure the presence of qualified personnel, it is essential to hold training seminars that instruct employees on specific skills needed for successfully carrying out their tasks, as well as enhance collaboration and communication. And one of the most effective training tools available is the Onstream Media webinar.

Internet multicasting is a potentially powerful tool that involves sending individual streaming messages via video or audio, as well as text, to a selective group of people. It differs from unicasting (one-to-one) and broadcasting (one-to-all – broadcasts are blocked by routers, but can be received by anyone who knows the protocol for reception), in that a single user can select the specific people in the group who will receive the packet of content; the end user has to request to be involved in the multicast.

Etiquette is something that has been taught to most people from a very early age, albeit in varying degrees. It is for these reasons that we practice conventions such as saying “please” or “thank you”, and they are almost absolutely essential for any social scenario.

If you are considering having a live online event, there are several factors for you to consider. Your first step will be to think through all the reasons why you want to have a live event. Is it an absolute necessity? Depending on what your particular circumstances are, going live may or may not be your best option. For instance, if you are merely seeking interactive features such as chat, polling and other responses, it is not necessary to go live. Many of the interactive features can be accomplished with an on demand broadcast. However, if your purpose is to cover a groundbreaking event, broadcast an important message, or otherwise have an urgent need to host your event live, you will next need to carefully consider your target audience. Make sure that they will be available on the date of your event in order to ensure that you actually have an audience!
