Summary

I know that I've talked a lot with you about webinars this year. The fact is that I've been learning a ton about them myself, and every time I learn a new technique or crack the code on a revenue-boosting system, I can't help but pass it on to you! This week, though, I'm doing something a little different. Rather than walk you through a step-by-step system, I'm going to focus with you on one very specific strategy that I learned from Tim Paige, the host of the podcast Conversion Cast and the leader of all LeadPages webinars. Today is all about an engagement strategy that I've just begun applying it to my webinars. I’ll be sure to let you know how it's going, once I really get it off the ground. But I'll be completely honest with you: it's a little awkward, in the beginning. I've done a lot of webinars, and I still am finding my sweet spot. The thing is that Tim, in addition to being a pal, is a true webinar ninja. This man has done 410 webinars to date! (Who knows--he may be up to more, by the time this episode airs.) No joke--his application is pending for the Guinness Book of World Records for most webinars done in a 12-month period. This is a guy who really knows the ins and outs of webinar success. So when he tells me this strategy is worth working through, I believe it! Listen to the full episode to get all the details on this amazing strategy from Tim Paige.

EPISODE FREEBIE Get Amy and Tim's Engagement Focused Webinar FREE DOWNLOAD We all know how important engagement is for our webinars. There's nothing worse than crafting and delivering a dynamic, informative presentation only to hear crickets during the Q&A. Scratch that--there is one thing worse: delivering your presentation and seeing only a faint dribble of sales by the time you log off for the day. What you're looking for is that special spark that sets fire to your content and gets your audience fired up in response to it. Early on, I wanted to test the idea of taking every opportunity I could throughout the process of presenting a webinar to look over in the questions box and start answering questions live as we went, as long as they were relevant and weren’t off topic. I found in answering questions, not only did I see a 98% stick rate (98% of the people that joined the webinar in the beginning stuck around all the way until the end) but in one split test I also saw a tripled revenue from one webinar to the next." Um...did you get all that? A 98% stick rate and a 300% revenue increase? I'd say this strategy is well worth trying, wouldn't you?So how does this work? If you're like me, you may be already thinking about how taking questions in the middle of your presentation will interrupt your flow. What if the questions make me get ahead of myself? Am I allowed to not answer questions if they aren't on topic? How is this supposed to work with replays and automated webinars? ...And just what is it about this strategy that makes it so incredibly powerful? Listen to the full episode for all the answers--it's a short but intense masterclass on a single technique that is a true webinar game changer.

You're listening to the online marketing made Easy Podcast episode number 88.

0:05.7

Welcome to the online marketing made easy podcast business advice so easy you'll feel like you're cheating.

0:12.6

And now your host Amy Porterfield.

0:15.8

Well, hey there Amy Porterfield here and welcome to another episode of the online marketing made easy podcast.

0:31.1

I am so thrilled that you've shown up here today because we are talking about webinars again.

0:36.5

Now, I know I've talked about webinars a lot in past episodes, but this time I have a special guest

0:42.2

and I have a really cool strategy to share with you. My special guest is Tim Page and Tim Page is the

0:48.4

conversion educator over at lead pages. If you've ever been on any webinars that I've done about

0:54.1

lead pages, you likely have heard from Tim because he is the host of all the lead pages webinars.

1:00.3

He's also the host of conversion cast, which is the lead pages podcast. Really great podcast.

1:06.0

You definitely want to check it out. Now, this is going to be a shorter episode because I've invited

1:11.5

Tim on the show to talk about one very specific strategy he uses on webinars. And it's something that I

1:19.3

don't typically do. And again, I always invite guests on where I could learn as well because I want to be

1:25.3

in the trenches with you learning this stuff. So it's something that I'm going to apply to my webinars.

1:30.4

And I'll report back and let you know how it's going once I get this kind of up and off the ground.

1:35.2

And actually, I feel comfortable with it. It's a strategy that could be awkward in the beginning for you as

1:40.3

a presenter, but really valuable for your audience. I don't want to give it all away. It has to do

1:45.1

with engagement, of course, but beyond that, I'll let Tim explain it. Now, before we get there, I want

1:50.8

to tell you that this episode is sponsored by MeetEdger.com. Now, MeetEdger.com is my tool of choice for

1:59.2

social media scheduling. The reason I use it is because it saves me so much time in terms of getting

2:07.2

post up on social media. I specifically use it for Facebook and Twitter, but you can go be on that

2:13.0

with other social media sites. But the reason I love it is because it's all about repurposing old content.
