You choose your level of participation:

1. Just sit and listen/watch - no one knows you are there.
2. Send questions in advance.
3. Write questions during the webinar for Rachel to read out.
4. Ask questions live so everyone hears you.

Ideal if you are shy, anxious or busy. Your participation can be anonymous if you wish.

How to book in and attend a webinar. An easy, three-stage process.

1. Book
You book in and pay on the Confident-Woman/RachelGreen.Com bookings page.

2. Register
Once you have paid you are sent a link to register for the webinar with Gotowebinars. They are the company we employ to run the webinar software for us. Once you have registered with them they send you another link that allows you personal access to the webinar on the day. It is specific to you on your computer. It will look something like this:

3. On the day
To attend on the day click the link Gotowebinars has sent you and the opening of the webinar will appear on your screen. It is easy! (Just make sure your link is on the same computer you will be attending the webinar on.)

We recommend you log in via the link 10 minutes before the start time to allow you the opportunity to check your equipment. It also means we can check we can hear you through your microphone if you want to ask questions.

NB: Please make sure you put the correct time in your diary. The time we give is Perth time, Western Australia. Please take into account daylight saving when calculating your own time. When you register for the webinar with GoToWebinars they allow you to change the time zone to match your own. Gotowebinars will send you a reminder notice before the event starts. This means your reminder will show the time in your own time zone.
What equipment will you need?

1. An Internet connection.

A fast reliable broadband connection is best. It may be possible through dial-up but may not be very good, and we don't recommend it.

If you don’t have a broadband connection and you are in a rural area in Australia Telstra does sell prepaid wireless broadband devices on the Next G network. This gives the best coverage in rural areas and I carry one with me to use in rural areas. However, please check before purchasing as they do cost quite a bit. (The device is between $99 - $149 Australian in my experience, but can be used over and over again, so once purchased all you have to do is pay for the calls.)

Alternatively, if you are in Western Australia you may find your local Telecentre has all the equipment you need: Click here.

Other states and countries may have similar systems.

2. A computer

System Requirements:

PC-based attendees
Required: Windows® 2000, XP Home, XP Pro, 2003 Server, Vista

Macintosh®-based attendees
Required: Mac OS® X 10.4 (Tiger®) or newer

3. Audio

Audio quality can vary based on your audio software/hardware manufacturer as well as your operating system.

You do need to be able to hear the presenter during the webinar.
  • You will get the best sound if you wear headphones. You will also need these if other people around you will be affected by the sounds on your computer or if you are in a noisy environment.
  • However, we have listened to other webinars successfully through the loud-speakers in our computers. Your choice. Go for the best quality you can.
  • The equipment you need will also depend on the level of involvement you want in the webinar. You only need a microphone if you want to ask questions live-to-air so that all participants hear you during the webinar.
  • The best quality audio system, in our experience, is a headset with a built-in microphone plugged into your computer
  • You do not need a video camera/webcam. No one will see you during the webinar.
Make interesting conversations with confidence
Building confidence in talking to and meeting people isn't easy if you don't know how to make conversation interesting. Awkwardness, social anxiety or shyness can make us avoid conversations altogether.

Yet conversations are the foundation stone for client relationships, building businesses and developing extensive networks.

Despite this, we've all been stuck in boring conversations, especially at networking events, seminars and client functions, and wished we could exit politely!

It's not just conversations with strangers that can be difficult. Conversations with people you know and work with can also grind to a halt as people run out of things to talk about. Weddings, family get-togethers and staff socials can be dreadfully boring! Christmas events and birthdays even worse!
I always remember the client who told me that she dreaded Christmas at work. Each year the boss would invite all the management team round to his place for a sit-down-dinner. No one knew what to talk about so they only talked about work, and it was deadly.
Make sure you know exactly how to make interesting conversations by registering for this confidence building webinar. Be able to talk to strangers, clients and colleagues easily. Ooze self-confidence.

You will learn:
  • How to confidently get someone to open up to you quickly.
  • The top ten topics you can talk to anyone about.
  • The 3 best questions to ask to keep conversations going.
  • How not to run out of something to say.
  • The questions to avoid.
  • How to make yourself sound interesting.
  • How not to kill conversation.
  • Why it can be important to talk about yourself.
  • How to answer questions with self-confidence.
  • How to think of original topics to talk about.
  • How to quickly find out what you have in common, (even when you think you have nothing in common).
  • How to build confidence in your conversational skills.
There is no need for dull conversations any more.

This expert, live webinar is a wonderful opportunity to learn how to turn your conversations into sparkling interactions. Let yourself shine. Talk to people with confidence.
