Webinars

If your company positioned itself as a thought leader on key industry topics, what value would it bring?‍

When webinars are done well and provide information of value, they build trust and earn business. Producing webinars, though, involves the challenge of creating compelling content, recruiting speakers and driving registrations.

With WATT Global Media webinars, you can:

Leverage our engaged audience, editorial experts and market research capabilities
Realize the security of an experienced production team that has produced over 200 editorial, internal and sponsored webinars
Access proven marketing, registration and broadcast platforms for prominent branding and a professional format

The most common types of webinars are below - contact your sales manager to discuss your webinar program vision.

Two types of webinars are available:

Custom webinars – Position your company as a subject-matter expert and build a database of qualified leads. Deliver your message to a targeted global audience you select from our advanced behavioral database.

Editorial webinars – Gain positive exposure and linkage to industry experts with less time investment. Editorial webinars cover pressing industry topics, and your company’s affiliation connects your brand to important market issues.

Webinar preparation:

Customer will decide style of webinar presentation, usually selecting one company employee as presenter along with an academia or end user presenter. While WATT Global Media can recommend presenters and broker introductions the customer is ultimately responsible to secure an available broadcast date, coordinate calendars and pay honrariums (if needed).

The customer is also responsible for preparing individual and/or collective PowerPoint slide presentations, supplying them to WATT Global Media approximately 1 week prior to the live broadcast date. Have your team prepare for a 1-hour presentation.

5 minutes intro and welcome by WATT editorial moderator
20 minutes for presenter #1
Short break to do an in-webinar poll question (optional – you do not have to take advantage of this)
20 minutes for presenter #2
15 minutes for question and answer period (please prepare 3-4 “seed questions” that the moderator will ask the presenters to start this section)
Short wrap up, reminder to take the post webinar survey and thank you to our sponsor by the moderator
You can slightly modify the above webinar timeline to suit your needs
