Tips & Trends #1 – Getting People to Show Up at Virtual Events + GBAC


Jim Cermak



Tips & Trends #1 – quick episodes with the tips you need and the trends to watch!

How do we get more people to Show Up at our Webinars and Virtual Events? I give 2 powerful tips to reduce your No-Shows! Plus I talk about GBAC – what it is and why it’s important for returning to Live Events!


Tip 1 – Send a physical program to registered Virtual Event attendees!

  • Don’t simply send email reminders for your virtual events – these get lost in the millions of emails we get daily!

  • When people are registering, ask for their physical address (remember – it might be their home address)

  • Then send them a physical agenda or event program in the mail!

  • This will help them remember your event, and make you stand out in the sea of virtual events happening!

Tip 2 – Offer multiple times for your Virtual Events!

  • If people can’t make the time you are having the event, there is a 100% chance they won’t show up!

  • So unless it’s a multi-day event, offer the event multiple times

  • ALSO – offer replays of your event

  • These ideas give you a greater chance of getting more attendees!


TREND – Health and Safety – GBAC

  • You may have seen the letters GBAC pertaining to a facility.

  • GBAC is the Global Biorisk Advisory Council

  • GBAC is a network of scientists, experts, and specialists who offer consulting, training, education, and auditing for environments that require a higher level of cleaning and disinfection

  • GBAC is working with facilities to certify them (GBAC Star Certification) so Live Events can come back quicker!
