2. How many people can we have on a webinar?

It’s up to you. We have delivered to hundreds before but obviously this would be more of a presentation as opposed to an intimate coaching session. Let us know what you need and we can talk options!

3. Can we have a recording?

Yes, we can send you a MP4 file of your training webinar for you to keep and use in the future.

We can even go one step further and incorporate the webinar file onto an eLearning course for you with additional content, quizzes and/or case studies.
