I was having a look around a few months back about setting up a webinar for my subscribers, the problem I found was that you had to input your bank details before the free trial which leads to unwanted bills if it fails.
After looking around I found "Any Meeting", its free and you can run a live event for 200 people. There are banner ads running during the meeting but its not intrusive and the attendees are able to focus on your content. Also the great aspect is you can promote the live webinar event weeks before the date with their squeeze page, so you can build your audience before its live, not leaving anything to chance.
How Do You Fill A Live Event?.
Many website owners are concerned that if they launch a live event, very few people will show up. Here are my top five tips to make sure you have a success in this area:
1. Make sure you set up the event a month in advance and have the invite link set up (There are notes & tutorials to help on the site, but its a few clicks).
2. Invite an expert in your websites field. As I run a YouTube channel, I usually invite "Dai Ling Ping" as he can send the link to his 20000 fanbase on Facebook.
3. Check where most of your attendees live, it's best to choose a time that is suitable for them, I set the webinars up for 8PM UK time, as most are logging in from UK.
4. Attract and build on each webinar. At the end of each webinar ask if they enjoyed it and got something out of it. Then they will probably attend future webinars, making 200 any easy number to hit after a few events.
5. Follow up with an email to thank the attendees. I usually share my email & business number so that people can contact for further products & services within the company.
It's all about making a start. Ten people at a live event is enough for the first one, but as you start to look for different guests, you'll see your figures move onwards & upwards over time!.
In June I'm running the 5th live monthly event and I have already built 500 potential attendees. Its great for building the hype around your products or services for sale.
If you are interested in joining the event in June, here's the link: http://www.anymeeting.com/AccountManager/RegEv.aspx?PIID=EE52DD87834F
I'm no way affiliated to "Any Meeting" but everyone I have told didn't know it existed and are enjoying the free service. Would be cool to speak to you live next month!...
