A webinar or web seminar can do much more for a company than many realize. The web meeting as it exists today represents a vital link between business and customer. This link goes beyond the reach of traditional advertising avenues. Depending on the product or type of service a company provides, a web meeting can help to inform and increase customer satisfactions like very few mediums can.

Why are Webinars Effective?

Hosting a web meeting today is cheaper, and does not present the kind of technical problems it used to. Like in-person group meetings, hosting webinars or meetings in the past could be logistical nightmares. The industry has responded by increasingly providing more efficient options. One of the latest such offerings in the news was the release of RHUB’s TurboMeeting 4.1.

Whether a company uses this or any other software on the market, they usually create an environment where the webinar host and audience can:

• View information as it is being shown on the presenter’s screen in real time
• Use their computer speaker for audio conferencing via telephone lines
• Save video of the webinar or web meeting to watch at a later time
• Have a virtual show of hands to respond to questions or make queries
• Make use of questionnaires
• View streaming media

Naturally some webinars may be limited by the scope of the software being used. Some like RHUB’s TurboMeeting 4.1 allow for remotely providing support to users even without them being involved in the web meeting. It is these features and the ability to package content to suit demanding audiences that help to make the webinar such an effective tool.

Using a Webinar to Expand your Company’s Reach

Strategies for using webinars for company promotion will vary. These are impacted by the type of product or service, and how readily they lend themselves to being promoted by this format. Companies should not overlook the possibility of using a webinar to generate word-of-mouth buzz. Here are a few steps for effectively utilizing all that a web meeting can offer in order to satisfy existing customers and gain new ones:

• Establish a company e-newsletter, and encourage new customers to sign up for product updates, new products and services etc. It is also important to promote the newsletter to get prospective customers to subscribe.
• When offering anything new, present it in a webinar which will allow the attendees to see benefits firsthand, and ask questions if necessary
• Use the newsletter to inform subscribers about the date and time of the webinar and any other relevant information. It can also be used to send reminders.
• Plan the presentation so that the information is concise but still offers all that the audience will need to know
• Make sure that the web meeting doesn’t run for too long as time for both the attendees and the company is important

Companies that design software can use these webinars to promote upgrades or new offerings and offer technical support. Likewise any business that deals with technology can effectively use webinars or web meeting to reach new customers and keep their company in the spotlight.
