Web Conferencing
This work at home article is dedicated to the art and science of web conferencing. Now, if you are not really sure what web conferencing is all about, view this article from Wikipedia. Web conferencing is used to conduct live meetings, training, or presentations via the Internet. In a web conference, each participant sits at his or her own computer and is connected to other participants via the Internet. This can be either a downloaded application on each of the attendees’ computers or a web based application where the attendees access the meeting by clicking on a link distributed by email meeting invitation to enter the conference.
A webinar is a neologism to describe a specific type of web conference. It is typically one-way,[1] from the speaker to the audience with limited audience interaction, such as in a webcast. A webinar can be collaborative and include polling and question & answer sessions to allow full participation between the audience and the presenter. In some cases, the presenter may speak over a standard telephone line, while pointing out information being presented onscreen, and the audience can respond over their own telephones, speaker phones allowing the greatest comfort and convenience. There are web conferencing technologies on the market that have incorporated the use of VoIP audio technology, to allow for a completely web-based communication. Depending upon the provider, webinars may provide hidden or anonymous participant functionality, making participants unaware of other participants in the same meeting.
For interactive online workshops web conferences are complemented by electronic meeting systems (EMS) which provide a range of online facilitation tools such as brainstorming and categorization, a range of voting methods or structured discussions, typically with optional anonymity. Typically, EMS do not provide core web conferencing functionality such as screen sharing or voice conferencing though some EMS can control web conferencing sessions.
In the early years of the Internet, the terms web conferencing was often used to describe a group discussion in a message board and therefore not live. The term has evolved to refer specifically to live or synchronous meetings.
The reason I am writing on this topic is simple. My business depends on web conferencing to present adequately my work at home business to prospects. I always use presentations, rather than pitches in these conference room sessions. I offer benefits, solutions, education and knowledge about my TriVita business. It is then up to my prospect to discern within their own mind if this business model is suitable for them to consider. I have been using web conferencing for years. I find it the most appealing way to speak, and present my work at home business to anyone desiring that information. There is no cost to attend these sessions, and the information that you, my faithful Google readers will have, is invaluable to you.
As a matter of fact, I invite you to login to my web conferencing room anytime. You are welcome to come and see how I build my work at home business.
