Webinars are often painfully short on exposure to the actual product, devoting half of the typical one-hour length to an “expert” disserting on some lofty topic, another fifteen minutes to a fluffy presentation about the company and its strategic direction, and a scant five minutes to a quick demo.

It's not that all women aren't interested in learning to download files or take Webinars , it's that their “why bother” factor may well kick in.

Although there are many other tools that are available in a webinar tool, these are the ones you'll find yourself using most often.
