My First Webinar Recording Experience Was a Mess

In late 2008, after taking my first Camtasia class, I  asked a couple of women, well known in the VA Training industry, if I could record and edit a series of webinar they were delivering on how to run an on-line business. At the time, I couldn’t afford the cost of the series so I recorded it for free just to sit in. Thank God I wasn’t being paid. I lost audio on the first one and completely ruined one of the recordings because I was using the wrong recording settings. I also was rather embarrassed to not be able to get the recordings off my hard drive and onto their server without a lot of failed attempts.

It was the best learning experience I could have had and the ladies were pretty cool about everything.

Since then I’ve delivered at least 200 webinars, rarely messing up at all and so grateful that I have learned this skill.  I hate to write. Well let’s just say it is painful for me so webinars are the main way I

  • Build rapport with my clients and prospects so and deliver the products and services they want

  • Create our training here at Learn Camtasia and answer questions as they come up

  • Get people together very quickly for Q and A problem solving

  • Work with my personal coaching clients

The first time I delivered my own webinar I was really nervous about possible issues with the technology or possibly losing my Internet connection in the middle.  Now I don’t really worry about those things any more because everything that could go wrong has already happened at least once . And  I wasn’t humiliated beyond recognition and nobody died and I’m still doing them.

Oh- and by the way they are the best possible list builder that I know of.

This Wednesday Oct 10 and for the next 5 Wednesdays I’m partnering with my friend Craig Canning and giving away all my webinar secrets.  I’ll be teaching how to get people to show up, how to record and edit with Camtasia and how to send the right follow-up messages to sell your training courses.

As this is a bootcamp with lots of personal coaching we are limiting the seats so please take advantage of this live, interactive class.

Love the pic – it’s exactly how I feel when I discover GTW has declined to record any video at all, leaving me with a mp3 of what’s supposed to be a graphics training…
Have all the fun you can today!
