About Webinars

Webinars run for one hour and cover a range of topics. They are like a seminar only you don't need to travel anywhere; you simply sit at your computer. They are available to you wherever you are, as long as you have a computer with audio and an internet connection

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.

Rachel presents them and they are a unique opportunity to talk directly to her, to ask her questions and hear her input.

Specific topics will be covered on all aspects of self-confidence and self-confidence in communication. You can request topics too.

Small business confidence
Self-confidence is crucial to success in every small business. Each day brings new challenges and an owner's self-confidence is often the difference between success and failure.

Led by successful small business owner, Rachel Green, this is your unique opportunity to hear the key factors that have kept her small business going for over 20 years.

Gain the self-confidence and skills to build your business. Book Now.

Webinar schedules are listed on the Bookings page.

Learn with successful small business owner, Rachel Green.

Rachel has run her own micro/small business for over 20 yrs. She was initially a home-based business but then decided to move into business premises where she has been for over 12 years.

She owns a Pty Ltd speaking and training company and speaks on communication skills, emotional intelligence and confidence; and sells CDs, books, and other merchandise such as T-shirts.

Rachel has seen many other small businesses come and go during this time. Yet she has ridden a number of economic downturns, government policy changes, (such as the training guarantee scheme and the introduction of the GST), gone through numerous reinventions, run a website for over 12 years and sold online, employed casual, contract and permanent staff, ... and all while maintaining a (usually!) healthy work-life balance.

She is taking this unique opportunity to share with all solo/micro/small business owners, and potential business owners, some of the key factors that she has learnt that can influence success in a small business.

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.
Small business confidence: The details
Small business confidence is a must for small business success. Rachel has been running a small business for over 20 years. During this time she has seen many other small businesses come and go. How has she survived?

She will share with all solo/micro/small business owners, and potential business owners, some of the key factors that have influenced her success. She has many trade "secrets" to share to help you increase your self-confidence and make money in your business.
Do you want the self-confidence to make sure people pay you or to put up your prices? Do you want the self-confidence to market and promote yourself better? Do you need more self-confidence in handling staff or difficult customers?
Rachel will talk about all these aspects and more, to help you build your business and build your self-confidence. Here are just some of the items she may mention:
  • The number one behaviour that keeps me in business.
  • How I find the words that sell.
  • How I make money in my business.
  • The one word that keeps me sane.
  • What I say to turn around argumentative customers.
  • The two things a business website must do and the one feature that does not matter.
  • Promoting my business: talk is cheap.
  • Two ways to deal with cash flow problems.
  • How I make sure people pay me.
  • Why taking my foot off the marketing pedal nearly sent me broke.
  • How I check my price is right.
  • Why valuing my staff adds value to my business.
And this is only some of what will be covered. There is only one hour but it will be packed with information and ideas. Bring a pen to capture the gems.

This is a unique opportunity for you to learn new keys to business success, in an easy, low-cost format. What's more, there are no travel costs, no extra time spent travelling, and you don't have to leave your home or workplace to join in.
