Creating Your Webinar

Creating a webinar in Sequel.io is fast, easy and powerful. Follow these steps:

  1. Open your Sequel Admin Dashboard

  2. Select Events in the side bar

  3. Select New Event

  4. Add your Event Name, the Start Time/Date, Event Duration, and specify it is a single event or recurring event

  5. Double check the info and select Complete and Save

Single Events can always be edited later by selecting them in the Events tab, but for now, let's focus on getting your first webinar LIVE!

Customize (Optional)

Customers on Growth and above have access to the Customization suite. Select Customization in the side bar. Here you can customize the fonts, colors, buttons and more. For your first event, we recommend adding your brand colors and font.

Looking for even more options? The Sequel.io Customization suite allows you to choose Countdown Color, Circle Graphics, Presenter Glow, Stage Background, Stage Watermark, Core Features and more.

Preview Your Webinar

Now that you've created your webinar and customized it's time to see what it looks like! Launch your event preview by clicking the preview button in the event details or selecting the preview icon on the Event tab. From here you can set up your audio, video settings, test registration, enter the backstage, chat and even Go Live!

Your webinar is created, customized and previewed. Now you just need people to experience it with you! Share your webinar right from the preview by clicking the share button and adding emails. For this first webinar we recommend sharing with colleagues and friends.

Go Live

The moment you've been working towards, going live! Enter your webinar just as you did when you were previewing it earlier. Select Enter Backstage to gain access to the stage once you have completed your media device set-up. When you're ready to start you webinar select "Go Live" in the upper righthand corner. When the countdown is completed you'll be live to your viewers. Once you've finished your webinar select End Session and publish your On Demand Replay!

Prepare for the Sequel

Now that you've run your first webinar on Sequel.io you're ready to build your own webinar series. Start asking yourself questions like how should I organize my event? If you haven't already, look at embedding your next webinar on your own website.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to us via Chat or at support@sequel.io with any additional questions you may have throughout this process.
