There are many ways to make money with a Webinar, but let's start with the question, "Who makes money with Webinars?

? Sales people, like Realtors

? Educators and trainers

? Internet Marketers

? Network Marketers

? Web Site Developers

? Authors

Basically, anyone who needs to tell a story or share information (text, pictures, presentations, etc.) to make a sale can make money with Webinars. That means all small and large business owners can use Webinar rooms to generate sales and income. I will offer a few examples below.

But first, why do people make money with Webinars?

Because a Webinar room allows you to enter a virtual conference room, talk (in your voice) and share pictures, web sites, Power Point Presentations and in some cases, any application on your computer, such as Excel, Word, etc. to tell a story or show people why they need your product or service.

Want a few examples? Great.

How Real Estate Agents use Webinar Rooms:

To start, Real Estate agents can save time helping out of town buyers view homes and answer questions via the Internet and a Webinar Room BEFORE the buyers come to town. This is great for companies who offer with relocation services. The Real estate agent can bring up the local MLS Web Site, and show pictures and information about dozens of real estate properties online, in the time it would take to drive to just one house, if they were doing it in person.

That's just for starters. The Real Estate agent could also bring up a home buyer's pre-qualification Web Site on the screen and pre-qualify the home buyers before they look at those homes, so they know what price range they can afford to buy in, saving everyone time and money, for starters.

Network Marketers:

Most network marketing companies offer Power Point Presentations ? on CD or online for their teams to sell their products and services. If you remember, a benefit of Webinar Rooms is that you can share those presentations with one, two or maybe even hundreds of people in a Webinar at one time, for the same small cost.

So instead of meeting with prospects one-on-one, and making dozens of presentations, a better option is to schedule a Webinar for each Wednesday night for example, with your prospects and the prospects of your team. This way, the best presenter gives the best, live presentation, and answers questions. Then each person takes over, and talks to their own prospects and directs them to their web sites to sign them up or make the sale. It's been done for years, and some of the top recruiters benefit greatly from online Webinars.

Computer educators and trainers can benefit from Webinars

Do you have software package do you want to teach or learn? Just about any computer software program can be shared in a Webinar, or online conference room. Basically, everyone in the Webinar can now look over the shoulder of the person teaching the class, no matter if they are in the same city or not!

And because the instructor does not need an expensive, physical classroom, the instructor can charge a small fee and still generate good income. They could even record the Webinar and charge a fee to access the recordings if they wanted to. That's how people make membership sites and charge a monthly fee for access to valuable recordings.

Or, if the instructor allows it, you can record and then replay the Webinar at your convenience, at work or at home. Those are just a few of the ways people generate income with Webinars.

Again, remember that with most Webinar Rooms:

1. You instantly increase your geographical sales territory and the ability to sell around the world.

2. You save the cost of travel, for you and those who attend your webinar.

3. You can record your webinar and place it on a CD or your web site for distribution.

That last option is very important, because you can basically create your own "Talking Ad"

But that's a topic for another article.

The bottom line is this: "If you want a more flexible schedule and potential to earn more money when you do work, Webinars will be a major tool for you to use in your business."
