Webinar software tools are a terrific and effective way to do business, promote information and discuss ideas. The problem, however, is that the cost of using webinar software can be quite expensive or even prohibitive for many businesses, with some requiring monthly subscriptions, and/or restricting the number of participants who can register.
Fortunately, if you run a WordPress-powered website or blog, there is now a way to run webinars without limits or ongoing expenses.
RunClick – Video Conferencing Plugin
(RunClick – Webinar and Video Conferencing Software)
Plugin Description
The RunClick video conferencing software lets you manage a professional webinar platform on your web site using Google’s own webcast software, Google Hangouts.
Google Hangouts is a powerful broadcasting application, but it’s not a web marketing solution. RunClick uses the high quality audio visual capabilities of Google Hangouts, and also gives you the power of pre-recorded webinars at no additional cost, plus built-in lead capture and follow up functionality, giving you a total webinar and video conferencing and marketing solution.
RunClick (formerly known as “Hangout Plugin”) is a simple-to-install and easy-to-use video conferencing plugin that will help you promote and broadcast your information to an unlimited global audience, build engagement with your attendees, close sales live over the web, turn your presentations into webinars that can be scheduled to play automatically, and instantly set up automated follow-up email marketing campaigns.
