Maximizing the Potential of Your Next Webinar with Brian Drake1
At least 83% of U.S. marketers find webinars effective. The average webinar has an attendance rate of roughly 40%, with only 40% of those individuals watching the entire event. However, since the start of the COVID-19 Pandemic, companies have seen up to an 87% increase in attendance, according to Zippia.
For Brian Drake, he’s the Founder of Sellaquest - a webinar consulting agency. When I was 4 years old - there I was standing out in my driveway selling painted rocks to my neighbors. Fast forward to when I was 21 years old - I’m sitting at a desk writing my first business plan. It wasn't until I was 34 years old did I start my first business.
I've spent years dreaming of what life would be like as a successful entrepreneur. I’d imagine waking up every morning and walking out to my rooftop deck to take a dip in my hot tub to start my day while looking out at a view of rolling hills free of the concern for money. This was a life I badly wanted and would dream of having.
My entrepreneurial journey started in October 2021 when I left my 120k a year - secure full-time job to pursue entrepreneurship. At the time, I was the founder of a website design and development company that was yet to make money. After struggling to communicate with potential clients - I walked away and began learning about brand strategy and how to facilitate meetings.
One day - I’m sitting on the couch in my living room realizing the truth of my reality. The truth is that no one knew who Brian Drake was. Nobody cared. I sat there and thought to myself “how am I going to build a business that makes money if nobody knows who I am?
I decided in that moment to learn how to become a public speaker - so I could get onto a stage and become someone who is known by people.
Learning to become a public speaker introduced me to Storytelling. Telling stories on stage is an important part of becoming a public speaker.
Once I found storytelling -Who I was 1 year ago is not the same person that is sitting here writing this story. My beliefs have changed. The way I see the world has changed. My understanding of what 1% of us know that 99% of us are struggling with has changed.
I've made it. I've become the entrepreneur I’ve been dreaming of since I was 4 years old, I would someday become. He believes effective communication is the most important skill a person can learn. I create webinars that are an unforgettable experience. He joined me this week to tell me more.
