7 Things that WILL go wrong when you run a Webinar

We did a couple of online-demos &#x2F; webinars of our product for potential customers lately. Here&#x27;s what we learned:<p>- Our customers strongly prefer to call in via landline than to use their computer for audio. Make sure to send them the national call-in number (we&#x27;ve been talking to customers in Germany)<p>- Either only share a part of your screen or put your screen resolution way low. This will improve image quality&#x2F;speed and makes sure the image will fit onto their screen, even if they use a small laptop<p>- Online-demo software that &quot;just works&quot; for the customer doesn&#x27;t seem to exist.<p>-- Skype and Google Hangout need registration&#x2F;installation, most others (including WebEx) need Java in the browser.<p>-- If you are lucky, the company uses one of these themselves. We&#x27;ve mostly not been lucky.<p>-- We also tried join.me but their screen updating algorithm is awful. It updates squares instead of the whole image, but in a seemingly random order. If you scroll down a page, it&#x27;s just confusing chaos. Way worse than updating the whole image once.<p>I&#x27;m open for better suggestions...
