Promoting Your Webinars

  • Updated

A webinar's turnout depends as much on the promotion around it as the content inside it. Act-On's Webinar Dashboard gives you five message types built for the different points in that promotion cycle - from the first invite to the post-event follow-up.

Why this matters: Registrants who get a reminder show up more reliably, and a well-segmented follow-up (attended vs. no-show) keeps the conversation going with the people who are still interested even if they missed the live event.

Ways to promote your webinar

  • Invitation Message – Send an invitation message to encourage your contacts to register
  • Last Chance Message – Send a reminder message to contacts who haven't yet registered
  • External Promotion Links – Post signup links on your websites, social media, etc., that can be tracked within Act-On
  • Reminder Message – Send a reminder to registrants as your webinar date approaches
  • Follow-up Message – Send a message after the event segmented by behavior (attended, did not attend, etc.)

Create a promotion message

All of these message types can be created quickly and easily in Act-On's Webinar Dashboard:

  1. Navigate to Automation > Webinars.
  2. Click on an event from the Upcoming Webinars section.
  3. Click the button to create your desired message.
