- Back in July, we decided to survey the readers of DemandGen Report to look at how webinars were working and what was working. The data I’m going to reference today is based on a Best Practices Survey for Webinar Hosts, which included feedback from 119 executives in companies who use webinars for Lead Generation, Demand Generation, Social Media and related purposes. The survey was conducted in July and August of 2010. The feedback came from Directors of VP, CEOs and Sales/Marketing executives in a variety of verticals, from software and business service to finance, healthcare and media/Internet. The survey skewed to companies with less than $50M in revenue (62.9% of respondents) and 1-50 employees (40.9%).
- Webinars have become almost ubiquitous, especially in the BtoB arenas. Because they require a real time commitment on the part of the attendee, registering and making time on their calendar to view the presentation---marketers have webinars staple of their lead generation and education camapaings. One of the drivers for this trends is the ease of use –43% cited this as as important aspect of the r platform for users in the Ease of Use/Setup, according to 42.5% of survey respondents
