11. Webinar Best Practices
Tailor your Presentation to your Audience: Start with a compelling
title that is both relevant and exciting.
Email Notifications: Make sure you have a attractive email
invitation that is well thought out.
Present with Confidence: Understand the technology you will be
using and make a test call so you are familiar with structure.
Enthusiasm is Contagious: Your already ahead of the curve because
you are presenting over the web saving everyone time and money.
Use this to your advantage and keep your presentation
enthusiastic.
Use the right type of camera: Understand the HD PTZ USB camera
available on the market. Set presentation presets if needed to
demonstrate products, move quickly to a primary or secondary
speaker and have a remote controller if necessary.
