Here are 3 Y‘s you really need to consider when selecting a provider to webcast your event Live…
Your Convenience – Your Peace of Mind
Will they consult with you on the best options and features to implement for your specific event webcast – and more importantly, will they take the entire webcast production process off your plate? Will they also keep you in the loop with the latest status updates on their organization progress?
Planning, Organizing, Dealing with Venue Staff & Technical headaches, Setup, Testing & more – can you leave it ALL to them & rest easy in the full knowledge that’s its all been taken care of?
Your Costs – Your Savings
Is their focus on landing the job for the biggest possible pay-off (for them) or have they shown any sign of helping you cut your production costs to the bare minimum? Remember, not every extra feature is necessary to make your event a success.
Will they be willing to provide major features at minor prices? Will they be able to provide the same quality while using less?
For example, why have 3 operators on site when just one does equally well? Why force clients to use unnecessary features that do not add to the value of the final result?
Have their systems and setups been configured to work with a trimmed down setup that costs less, yet does equally well (if not better) than the cumbersome and costly systems employed by other providers?
Can they show you ways by which you can recover the costs of your Live Event Webcast – or even how you can make a net profit?
Your Value – Your Reputation
If their aim is to provide the highest value for you at the lowest possible cost, you will find it easier to promote yourself in turn, as a high value service provider to your own audience.
What is their stream quality like? Have they shown you examples of their work?
A smooth stream, high quality audio and video and a professional looking web display helps to enhance your corporate or individual image to the point where the quality of the production is a direct reflection of your professionalism in the eyes of your audience.
These and other questions must be carefully considered before you select a Live Webcast provider for your next event.
