Why webinar funnels work

A webinar gives you 45-90 minutes of focused attention - far more than any sales page. You can teach a real framework, demonstrate expertise, answer objections live and present an offer to people who've chosen to show up.

Step-by-step build

  1. Choose one big promise the training delivers and one offer it naturally leads to.
  2. Build a registration page with a specific title, date/time, three takeaways and a short form.
  3. Send confirmation plus reminders at 24 hours, 1 hour and at start time. SMS reminders can lift attendance.
  4. Structure the webinar: hook, credibility, teaching (3 key ideas), transition, offer, Q&A.
  5. Send a replay sequence to everyone who registered, with an honest, real deadline if one exists.
  6. Track registration rate, show-up rate, offer conversion and replay conversion separately.

Live vs automated

Live webinars create energy and let you adapt to questions. Automated (evergreen) webinars scale without your time - but always be transparent that a session is pre-recorded.
