Hello ...

We're creeping up on the end of the year. Are you ready to say goodbye to 2015 and welcome in a new year? 


In 2016 planning here in the TradeshowGuy World we'll become very involved in webinars. People love webinars because they are a very effective training platform with opportunities to reach people you would not normally be able to reach. I've been involved in some great webinars in 2015 (thanks, Handshake!). I'll at least one a month in 2016 - maybe more, depending on how it goes. 


As part of my preparation, I spent a lot of time examining various webinar platforms, and there are a lot of them. GoToWebinar is the gold standard, but it's limited in a lot of things that I'd like to do, in my humble opinion. After much research and test-driving, I've settled on WebinarJam, which is a whopping platform that has a lot of bells and whistles that I think will make the webinar-viewing, follow up and engagement much better. So...first webinar is coming in the second half of January, 2016. 

 
Survey Sez....
For the first webinar of 2016, I'm going to answer your questions! I've been gathering questions for years, so I'll be answering a number of them, along with whatever new questions come up during the webinar. And if you want to submit your questions ahead of time, I've got a short survey set up. Just click through here, take one minute, and type your question in, and then look for the webinar with all of the answers coming up in late January.
