How To Generate Leads From and Monetize Your Webinars

Have you ever thought about how to generate leads from and monetize your webinars?

Believe it or not, webinars are a great money making opportunity!

It’s just that there aren’t a lot of people using it, so now is the time to take advantage of some free training.

Here’s How You Do It:

**Disclaimer: This method will NOT work if you are doing a mastermind webinar with a group of people. It is too hard to add in your own affiliate links for each individual person. So I do not recommend that you present links unless there is a way to benefit the ENTIRE group (i.e. – a group marketing product that you have created).

(Hint hint…look out for one that we’re putting out in late August or early September).

The methods I’m going to talk about below are only if you’re doing the webinar by yourself.

Also, I prefer to use GoToWebinars for my webinars.  What I describe below is in the GoToWebinar format.

1. Catchy Title

Use something as simple as “Linus Ruzicka LIVE Q&A -Plus a Bonus “Open Immediately”

Make sure to put the “Bonus” in the message.

If you have other Copywriting skills, feel free to use them here too.

2. Put The Bonus In The Message

When creating the body of your message, make sure to put the link to whatever your free “Bonus” is inside the body.

It could be an e-book, video bootcamp, free coaching session, etc.

Whatever it is, just make sure that it’s valuable and you label it as the “bonus.”

This is the leverage piece you use to get the people to open your message PLUS, you’re giving them something of quality and value for free.

Also, in the signature of the message, this is where you place your first affiliate link that you want someone to visit.

3. “Where To Send Attendees”

If you are sending people to an affiliate link , here is the second spot where you place the affiliate link.

When setting up the webinar, it gives you an option of where to send the people to after you register.

Simply place your affiliate link in here, and after they register for the webinar, they will be redirected to your site.

4. Reminder Messages

When you set up a webinar, you can set reminders for your attendees.

Under the “Change Settings” section that you see after you set-up the webinar:

Select “E-mail notifications” in the drop down menu:

• Here you can customize the “confirmation email.”
• You can also send reminder e-mails to registrants and invitee’s.  Make sure that you set up all three to be sent at “1 day” “2 hours” and “1 hours”
• Then personalize the reminder message to include your affiliate link

5. The Webinar Itself

Since you are actually doing a webinar, a smart idea is to connect the topic of your webinar to your affiliate links.

For example, if you’re doing a webinar about qualifying your prospects make your content about that, then consider putting in your links to “Black Belt Recruiting” from Mike Dillard the end of the webinar.

Also, then at the very end of the webinar, mention where you learned your skills in how to qualify your prospects and give them your affiliate link to Black Belt Recruiting.

6. “Follow-up messages” To Attendees

In the same drop down section, you can customize the follow up message that is sent to attendees that were on the webinar.

Set your affiliate link inside the message and schedule it to go out 1 hour after the webinar.

7.”Follow-up messages” to No-Shows

You can personalize a message that is sent to the folks that registered, but didn’t attend your webinar.

Again, customize the message to include your affiliate link and have it scheduled to be sent out 1 hour after the end of the webinar.

Make sure to “Save Changes” at the bottom and you’ve now monetized your webinars!

Advice: For the first few webinars that you do, you may want to warm them up to what you’re doing to get them used to seeing your affiliate links, so consider posting your affiliate links in only a few spots.

So there you have it – Really, this is a simple thing to do, but no one is doing this.  If you want to know more about how to monetize and generate leads from your webinars, and other "outside of the box" marketing strategies, stop by my blog site and get some of my other free strategies.
