Online Seminar Or Webinar?
Posted By: hross* on 2/9/2005 7:59 AM (CST) 250 Points
We are interested in training sleep deprived people to sleep. We have conducted live seminars and now would like to produce an online interactive seminar for interested participants. Any suggestions as to the best way to go about doing this? We would like to produce a great product.

I would be interested in learning more about your service and have some ideas that may help.

sleep is a learned behavior, we want to bring the learning online. We have little experience in the creation of an excellent seminar and need advice as to how to go about doing it.

Do you need video? If not, the easiest/least expensive way to do this would probably be by teleseminar. You can then charge for the seminars, host them live, and sell them both live and also recorded (on audio CD or cassette.) There's a chapter on this in my forthcoming (by June) book, "The Publishing Game: Create Audio Products in 30 Days" (http://www.PublishingGame.com)

We do need video, we are looking at power point presentation with video and other supporting technologies.
How difficult is it to do by ourselves, or does it pay to hire a company to do this>

Not looking for any points here, but I just had to say that it's nice to finally see a seminar that is SUPPOSED to put you to sleep. Most of them seem to do that unintentionally.

Hmmm. Will your marketing say, "This seminar is guaranteed to make you sleepy"?

Seriously, I bet there are a lot of people searching for this kind of help. Good luck with your seminar.

Do you have any information, Website or brochure, on your offering? I am personally interested in this.

I could write a book about this! I did a lot of research for a client who wanted to provide online classes with video and audio. Try WEB TRAIN.

If it's AUDIO only, with no online VISUAL, call Global Conference:

The question is rather broad. Can you provide a link to information on your service, or what exactly you teach?

There are lots of ways to do distance learning. You can sell CDs or DVDs, do an audio conference, a web conference, or use one of those online training systems. The decision on which media to use is going to depend on your market (how do they want to get the info), how you intend to reach them, and on what it is you have to say.

I'm not selling anything but I would tell you not to put any powerpoints presentations on the net. Use live seminars only if you are certain you will get many subscribers then you can record and sell it recorded.

But before you go the way of online seminars you will need to build credility with your website and newsletters. Then they will not mind spending cash on you.

Do you have a great content website about sleeping disorders ? If not start there.

Everyone, thanks for participating. I am closing this question since it's gathered a considerable amount of dust.
