Author: Emily Reagan | Digital Marketing Mentor, Speaker February 11, 2025 Duration: 1:04:07

Funnel Series #16

Selling from webinars doesn’t have to be awkward, scripted, or sleazy. But let’s be real—a lot of webinars feel like bad infomercials or robotic presentations that make people tune out before they ever hear the pitch. So what’s the secret to selling from webinars in a way that feels natural (and actually converts)?

In this episode, I’m chatting with Heather Sager, a speaking coach and business mentor, helping you turn your voice into your best marketing asset for growing your business. She is a former consulting executive turned global speaker and trainer, host of the Hint of Hustle podcast and creator of the Speaker Society. She's also a mom of 3 boys and lives with her family in beautiful Bend, OR.


Listen to learn more about:

  • The #1 mistake killing your webinar sales—and how to fix it
  • How to transition into your pitch without sounding awkward or pushy
  • The “After Party” mindset shift that makes your pitch feel fun instead of sleazy
  • Why authenticity is your secret weapon for converting more webinar attendees
  • How marketing assistants and service providers can step up their webinar support and help clients sell better


If you've ever helped a client with webinar slides, chat support, automations, or replay pages, this episode will give you the inside track on how to make their webinars more effective AND position yourself as an expert in webinar strategy.
