Sometimes unfortunately, it maybe easy to do more things wrong, than right. As in the end it alway takes practice to get it right in the first place on a live webinar.
If you understand what the issues are when you are presenting, then you are able to make the changes needed to improve your presenting skills in the future. This will help you along way in improving on those skills in future training sessions.
When you are conducting a webinar, and you are using PowerPoint presentations, you shouldn't just be ready the points on the slides. Your presentation should flow smoothly, although it is great to have audience participation they shouldn't completely control it. The webinar is also not about you, but more so about building some sort of following and selling a product.
When making a PowerPoint presentation, don't have all the slides in so much detail, and avoid reading off the screens in live webinars, as it can be really boring for the audience who is watching. You PowerPoint needs to have the outline, not your entire script.
Each slide should just have about a couple of points, just to help keep you on track of what you are saying and they should act more like cue cards. The topic and information needs, to be well remembered by you, and so when you are looking at each point you should be able to discuss each point for a couple of minutes. You can also use your own personal experience in the presentation to give it that extra credibility, but you need to make the audience understand how it will be relevant for them.
When you do tell your own personal story, to give a point you need give information in there that makes the audience learn from what you did. There is no point in telling them the highlights of the story as they will learn nothing from that. By doing it this way you are actually teaching them something that is of value to them.
Relationship building is fine during webinars, but at the end of the day, they need to learn something, and they need to be able to understand how they get from where they are to get to where you are in the future. This needs to be in mind when you are presenting to them, they need to be entertained, and keep their attention, and give them information that will be helpful. Try not to read your slides, and make it more about the audience and what they can learn from you.
