Webinars, or online workshops, are the new way to make money from home. If you have a skill that you can teach others such as blogging, marketing, social networking, sales, or writing, you can hold a webinar and charge people a fee to attend your business seminar. Learn how to set up your own webinar and make money from home.
Decide what you will say during your webinar. You don't have to create an exact script, but you should create an outline to go along with your visual aids. Plan to take questions at the end of the seminar, so you can stay focused on the material you plan to present to your audience.
Next, put together your webinar. You can use PowerPoint to show slides, create a WORD document, show charts and graphs using Excel, or even show photos or diagrams. Create a presentation that will last between 30-45 minutes as you will start to lose your audience after 45 minutes.
Use online meeting software such as GoTo Meeting or Mikogo. You can invite up to 15 people using GoTo Meeting. If you need space for more attendees, you can use GoTo Webinar or other webinar software.
First, you will need to decide the subject matter of your online seminar. What do you have experience doing? What can you teach others? What do you know that others might want to learn?
Promote your webinar. Write a post on your blog promoting your seminar and include a Paypal button so that people can pay immediately to make a reservation. Always say that space is limited to encourage early sign ups. Use social networking sites like Twitter, FaceBook, and Digg to promote your seminar. Ask your colleagues to post your seminar on their blogs, Facebook, and Twitter pages.
Decide what you will charge for your seminar. $25 per person is reasonable when you start out. 10 people attending a webinar costing $25 a head will net $250. Some online workshops are much higher going up to $300 per person. The price you can charge will all depend on your expertise, your target audience, and how well you promote your seminar.
