By now you probably know the value of webinars: They keep you in touch with diverse audiences and enable you to provide valuable information to drive business growth.

 "A lot of our clients are showing great success and growth with their companies by doing webinars,” says Omar Maratouk, Vice President, Director of Sales for Infinite Conferencing. “But not everyone is taking full advantage of our services."

 Welcome page customization, survey tools and event management services are just a few of Infinite Conferencing’s offerings of which you may not be aware.

 

Make it your own

Did you know that Infinite Conferencing offers a customization service so you can put your company’s logo and design on your dial-in and welcome pages? It’s great for branding, and it also reassures your attendees that they’re in the right place.

“It hides us behind the scenes completely,” says Julie Glazer, Senior Account Executive for Infinite Conferencing. “It gives the feel that it’s the company’s own phone and Web conferencing system and that everything is streaming directly.”

 

Poll your audience

 Another feature you may not know about is the survey tool. “You’ll need a tool to collect feedback so that you can gauge the success of your event,” says Maratouk. “Once you know what your audience’s experience of the webinar was, you can use that information to make your next event even more successful.”

Infinite Conferencing creates a fully customized survey, delivers it to your attendees, and gives you a real-time view of the results. The information you can gather is virtually limitless, and in the true spirit of “Web 2.0,” it gives your participants a chance to shape your future events.

 

Let a professional handle it

Planning, marketing and conducting a webinar can be overwhelming. Why not let Infinite Conferencing do it all for you? Their event management specialists will plan your entire virtual event from beginning to end.

Here’s what you can expect a specialist to do for your webinar:

• Create the online registration form: Invitees will fill out registration pages customized with your logos and colors. After registering, they’ll receive an onscreen confirmation, followed by an email confirmation with instructions.

 • Create the event Web site: You can work with content experts to create a custom Web site to advertise the event. It could contain detailed information about one or more of your upcoming events.

 • E-mail invitations with custom registration links: Infinite Conferencing will create a customized email invitation that goes to each of your invitees. The email will contain the event announcement and links to the event Web site or registration page.

 • Report on registrations in real-time: Check updates of who has registered for the event with Infinite Conferencing’s event tracking URL.

 • Process payments during registration: Infinite Conferencing can also take care of processing your participant’s payments. SSL encryption and automated processing through VeriSign ensures the security of your registrant’s credit card accounts.

 • Email event reminders and instructions: On average, only one third of registrants actually show up for the event. Email reminders can help to increase attendance. Infinite Conferencing sends email reminders one week before, one day before and the morning of the event.

 • Post-event surveys: Infinite Conferencing will create a custom survey form, deliver it to your attendees, and give you a real-time view of the results.

 Whether it’s a tiny tweak or a complete overhaul, Infinite Conferencing will help your webinar reach its maximum potential.
