I just watched a terrific video on some best practices on delivering lead capturing Webinars.  I originally watched this video at Hubspot -an Internet Marketing blog. Since so many of my clients are creating Webinars now, I felt this was good information to pass on. Here is what is discussed in the video:

Before a Webinar:

  • Decide on your target audience and think about the content that appeals to them
  • Carefully plan your content to be enticing, useful, and interesting to your audience
  • Have a promotion plan and know what lists, blogs and partners you’ll use to promote registrations
  • Make sure your practice and rehearse, both for the speakers and to test your technology
  • Have a sales follow-up plan and make sure sales buys into the goals of the webinar

During a Webinar:

  • Follow a script so you stay on time and on topic
  • Make sure to capture all the questions people ask
  • Keep the content and media simple so you don’t have any technology issues

After a Webinar:

  • Send an email follow-up with a recording of the video to both attendees and non-attendees
  • Pass leads to the sales team
  • Use the data from your event (time spent in a webinar, questions asked) for lead scoring
  • Have lead intelligence, content, forms and interactive tools to engage and track visitors to your website after the webinar

The video below is about 5 minutes and packed with great info:
