Can I Transfer Webinar Videos Into An Article

If you are one of those people, that like to create content, by either video, audio format or in written context, then you would probably like to know how you redo your work just once and have it used in different formats.

You are probably asking the question of whether you can take a webinar and transform that information into articles. To answer this question maybe slightly difficult as a webinar is usually a recording that is about an hour long. There maybe a fair bit of text that is introductory, and you may not be able to reproduce that into an article. There maybe questions that you are answering from your audience, and transcribing it into an article, can be difficult. So, instead of doing it this way, what other ways can you do it.

Instead of dictating a new article. You should consider the points that you have covered in the webinar; the questions that you have answered, cover each of these questions and answers individually into articles. You can do the article from the beginning or you may chose to have them transcribed.

If you have webinar that is in the form of a community, which means that you a conducting live classes and have students that view it regularly, you can suggest to your students to post the notes that they have in the members sections. Another idea, is to have a blog where you display your webinar recordings, and during those recordings you can ask your students to leave their notes in the form of a comment, so that they are available to other viewers. By doing this, you can use it as a draft to create your articles. The articles that you want to create should be done by you, and those notes will be helpful, as these webinar are your recordings and above all you know the most about the topic and what you have discussed.

Getting someone else to write the articles for you from your webinar maybe a difficult task, as many of them wont be able to get the point of what you are trying to make. As you have created the webinar and done research on the topic, you will have the knowledge that is needed to create those well informed articles. However, you can always have them transcribe from what you have dictated your articles to be, as an alternative.

Finally, if you are going for the option of getting the webinar transcribed and then editing them into their own articles, you maybe wasting a lot of money and time, for the reasons that have already been explained. To transcribe the webinar, you will also have to transcribe the dialog in between, all the introduction and any question and answer secession that you may have. Creating the articles will be better off done, in a way that addresses each point, and summarizes what has been discussed in a more concise way.

The articles should cover the ideas that were presented in the webinar, not the entire webinar itself. You can use the notes from your students as a starting point, and write the articles yourself and avoid transcribing the entire webiner. Work from the ideas that you have created and then create interesting articles from that.

Webinar Mistakes: Split Call to Action

When you run a webinar, people see your computer screen live and also see your voice live. It's a fantastic way of not just sharing information, but directing people where to go in the form of personal challenges and sales pitches. You can present a PowerPoint or your screen live, and stream that presentation (including your voice) to your attendees as you speak. But with webinars, you aren't limited just to teaching. You can also end that one hour or two hour webinar presentation, with a sales pitch or a close.

What's a close, you ask? It's the sales pitch at the end. The presentation about what deal you are going to cut these attendees at the end of the webinar. Many people get this wrong. They either go to one extreme, which is to run a "pitchfest" where there is no teaching. Or they are at the other extreme, where they share lots of good information but fail to share a link to get more continuing education.

The whole webinar should all be building to one single URL at the end. Preferably, the name of your webinar is the same as the name of the product (it doesn't have to be) and the URL is a .com domain name. Don't give your audience any URLs with folders, give them a top level domain name to type in and go to. You can afford the 8 dollars to get a redirect domain.

I can't be clear enough when I say, at the end, give people ONE place to go. Don't share your email address, phone number, Twitter name, blog URL at the end, just give them that one URL where they can go and buy. Don't toss in "just one extra URL" for something else. One URL, that's it!

When you have this single call to action, your webinar will be extremely targeted. Everything you say will be for the purpose of tackling one more objection or move everybody one step closer to typing in that URL and going to buy. You're going to reduce the confusion about where to go next and what URL to type in... and best of all, it will make you look more confident to your audience.

Just like your emails, blog posts and sales letters... your webinar needs to point to ONE single URL at the end. Keep this in mind the next time you host a live online event.

Be a Confident Webinar Presenter

It is quite common for people who have never presented a webinar to become nervous as their first presentation approaches. This is normal and nothing to be worried about. There are a variety of things that you can do to make yourself feel and be more confident. These include; knowing your material, practice, detecting and correcting flaws in your presentation and working with a partner.

Know your material! This seems almost too basic to mention but it is a fact that many new webinar presenters fumble with facts, lose track of their train of thought or appear disorganized. None of these is what you want your viewers to see. You must be comfortable with the knowledge and facts included in your presentation and be able to put them across in a concise and comprehensive manner. This leads us to our next suggestion.

Practice, practice, practice. Any of you that have been involved in sports or the performing arts will already be well aware of this way of becoming proficient and confident in a skill. The more you practice and the more webinars you present, the better you will become at it. Using a mirror is one technique many people find effective in improving their webinar performance.

Detecting and correcting mistakes in your webinar can be one of the most challenging parts of the process of preparing your presentation. Self-correction is helpful; watching yourself on a recording can be very instructive as to any mistakes that you are making. It is very helpful to have a friend or colleague assist you as well. Their assessment of your presentation might be very different from yours and give you valuable insights into how you could improve your webinar. This is one part of working with a partner.

You might also consider using your partner to either co-host your webinar or give a talk or presentation within it. For many people knowing that they have help on hand reduces any apprehension they might be feeling about giving the presentation. It can also be easier to get ideas and energy flowing when you have someone to discuss the webinar with.

Let's go over the techniques that we have discussed to help you feel more relaxed and confident when you make your webinar presentation.

You need to have good knowledge of the material in your presentation and the ability to deliver it comprehensively.

You need to have practiced your presentation several times.

You need to have the webinar critiqued both by yourself and by a friend or colleague.

You can also use the person who critiqued you to co-host or present part of the webinar.

If you follow these simple steps you will find yourself confidently presenting your very own webinar.
