So I had my first official client tutoring session through web conference today. It amazingly well. I can only sit back in awe at the golden power of technology to enable the craft of marketing!
Despite a small hiccup in the very beginning [seems as though our feeds weren't syncing for a minute], once we got rolling things went very smoothly.
I guided the client through a full outline of their company from marketing presence through the sales process. I wanted to focus primarily on who they were versus who they thought they were. Believe me folks - there's a big difference!
Obviously the relationship and the content of what we went over will stay confidential, however what I can say is that they were very happy with the session and have even requested more focused work as a result!
I'm so excited and look forward to doing more of these.
That is a GREAT post on conferencing, which is really gaining speed in the market. I can recommend a great conferencing guide for newbees to use when figuring out how to get started. The “Quick Start Guide for Web Conferencing”, which I got on Amazon.com, got me up and running in about 25 minutes:
http://www.amazon.com/Web-Conferencing-Quick-Start-Guide/dp/1448649781/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1250795732&sr=8-1
I read that the www.webconferencingcouncil.com had a non-technical relative of equipped with a a Dell E6400 with Windows XP, complete with built-in camera & microphone test this book to see if it was truly a quick start. This relative was able to start a multi-point meeting in 17 minutes, was able to share her desktop and present an online presentation (Microsoft PowerPoint) in under 25 minutes, and even started using the voting and whiteboarding features within 30 minutes - all of it witnessed but uncoached. I was a little bit faster but I am more technical than most.
