Marketers Secret Weapon is Web Conferencing

by David Raets

Successful web marketers are slaughtering their competitors by using private label branded web conferencing systems in conjunction with PowerPoint presentations. By themselves, web conferencing and PowerPoint Presentations are each web marketing gold, but when they’re used in combination with one another, they save marketers exponentially more in time and money, while maximizing the effectiveness of all their marketing campaigns.

The internet is a global marketplace, and the modern conveniences of the 20th century don’t hold up in our 21st century world. For example, it will take a lot more than toll-free telephone numbers to keep your colleagues and clients (current and prospective) from having to shell out money to do business with you. The money-saving benefits of web conferencing do not stop, however, at simply lowering phone bills (yours or anyone else’s). When some measure of face-to-face contact or visual presentations is necessary, marketers in the past had travel all over to make their presentations, and larger conferences required making your target audiences travel to you. But now, with web conferencing, they can do so online-and for a whole lot cheaper.

And while web conferencing precludes travel costs, using PowerPoint presentations in conjunction with web conferencing precludes travel, materials (think of the savings on photocopying alone), and physical labor costs. Instead of lugging around a heavy easel, projector, screen, transparencies, and other supporting materials to all of those in-person meetings, they can instead plug their entire marketing message into a clean, compelling, and classy PowerPoint presentation they can take conference members through remotely, any time of day or night. PowerPoint presentations can help you deliver your message with maximum effectiveness for a minimum of costs no matter what type of “gathering of minds” you are coordinating-whether business meetings or seminars, product unveilings or creative collaborations, PowerPoint presentations can replace many expensive and unwieldy, more “traditional” methods of delivering your marketing message. And web conferencing is the ideal medium for their delivery.

Another cost-savings that both web conferencing and PowerPoint presentations provide is in mailing/shipping expenses. Whether you’re sending out direct mailings to masses of people or individual marketing packages to select VIP prospects , you’re wasting a lot of money unnecessarily when you can offer the same marketing presentation–only live , with you present to guide your prospects every step of the way–by delivering the presentation or pitch as a PowerPoint presentation over live web conferencing. One huge marketing hurdle this helps overcome (beyond just the costs of creating and mailing all those physical marketing materials) is the possibility that prospect won’t even read what you send them, but rather throw it in the trash (or, if they do read it, throw it out after they come across a point that needs more explaining).

Interestingly enough, while the bulk of this article so far has focused on cost-savings, these exact same arguments for the ways web conferencing and PowerPoint presentations used together save companies money also support the argument for them providing a real savings in time. It takes time to put together physical marketing materials (and to wait for them to be printed and picked up), to wait for the mail to deliver audio/visual materials and for the recipient to get around to reviewing them, to schedule follow-up calls to get particular questions answered, and to travel hither and thither in order spread your marketing message in person. Using web conferencing with PowerPoint presentations solves all of those time constraining issues, freeing you up to concentrate on other important things.

The third and, perhaps most valuable, reason successful marketers use PowerPoint presentations and web conferencing together are their combined effect on any marketing campaigns performance. The sheer breadth of ways that you can use web conferencing to improve and enhance your business is staggering: Automated customer support; Live pre-sales contacts; Promoting big sales; Networking in live chat rooms; Recruiting affiliates, employees; Training new affiliates and employees; Community outreach; Courting venture capital.

Hopefully we’ve conveyed by now the immense cost savings, time savings, and performance maximizing capabilities of a marketing system that incorporates PowerPoint presentations with web conferencing. What remains, then, is to direct you towards the singular web conferencing company that will best help you achieve all these goals and objectives-HotConference.

Add to this them 1-month free trial period and the immense cost-savings over other, more expensive but less feature-rich or user-friendly, web conferencing services. With HotConference you get all the above-mentioned benefits and–as you can only begin to image, we’re sure–a whole lot more.
