Since the first Covid lock-down in 2020 we have:

Some downloadable resources in no particular order:

This is designed to stick on the wall in front of you to remind you to turn off phones, lock up the dog, etc

Webinar booking checklist >

A sheet which reminds you to ask your clients all the right questions. Such as:

  • Who is instigating the webinar?
  • Which software is going to be used? Skype/Zoom/MS Teams/Google Meet?
  • Is there a reheasal?

Keep healthy! Keep positive!
