You must however, follow some specific steps to ensure your success with offering webinar training to add to your bottom line on a continuous basis. The steps to implement are fairly simple and straight-forward, however many who create webinars sometimes fail to implement all the steps so they often don't see the income returns they had hoped to.
1. Research topics that are of interest to people
People will attend webinars they believe they will learn something from them. How do you know what will interest people? Find out what they are talking about, having problems with, and asking questions about. You can gather a great information going into topic specific forums and groups on social networking sites as well as places like Yahoo Answers.
2. Find out the 5 biggest questions within your chosen topic
Once you have chosen a topic that interests you and is of interest to your target market, select the 5 most common questions and those will be the subject of your webinar. This will help greatly in the creation of your landing page and in making your webinar more search engine friendly as well as being more of interest to your audience.
3. Create a landing page for the webinar
Once you have decided the topic and the 5 questions, it's time to decide on a date and create your landing page. This step is easier than you might think because you already have the information needed for your landing page. You have the topic, the problems that people have regarding the topic and the 5 questions you will be answering. This will be the majority of the content on the landing page. Put something about yourself and why people should listen to you to complete the necessary items for the page. The last thing that is required is a payment button if it a paid webinar.
4. Create slides for the webinar
Create your webinar content. In the slide projection, you should have an introduction, who you are and how to contact you, the list of topics and the answers to the questions. You can use most any slide presentation software such as Microsoft Powerpoint or iWorks Pages. The slides should be interesting to look at and easy to read and follow along.
5. Record and download the webinar presentation
The next step is to actually hold your webinar presentation. Choose a webinar service that allows you to record your webinar and download it to your computer as a video file. You will want to chose a video format that can be played on multiple operating systems and not stick with the proprietary format that some webinar services have.
6. Upload recorded webinar into webinar replay service and replay
Sign up for a webinar replay service that allows you to replay webinars at whatever interval that you choose. Then upload your recorded webinar to that service. Make sure the service you choose can replay the video format that you saved your webinar to. That is why you want to save your webinar to a file format that is standard among the industry. Once you have decided upon a fixed schedule, modify your landing page to reflect the scheduled times of your replayed webinar.
To generate residual revenue with your webinars, following the steps discussed above will increase your rate of success. You must also be sure to get the correct services and use the right tools that will increase your revenue capability. Your next step should be poll your target market and see what are their three biggest problems, and design a webinar series to answer these issues. Then decide upon the various tools that will help you to create a perpetual money machine through replaying webinars.
