A number of attendees: how many do record holders bring together?

The basic rule for online events is obvious: you create them for attendees, and their presence allows you to achieve measurable goals. The more people you gather at your webinars, the better. How does attendance look in statistical terms?

In 2023, ClickMeeting users gathered an average of 650 attendees during their events.
An average of 14 people attended the event.
The edu industry professionals gathered the largest number of attendees – the average was 2175 attendees over the year.
The record holder gathered 28,258 participants at their events over the year. On average, 12 people attended a single webinar.

How many leads did the record holder acquire?

Online events are very diverse. Many of them are educational and training activities. However, nearly one in four events held on ClickMeeting in 2022 were marketing or sales related.

What sets them apart? In many cases, they are free promotional webinars to generate leads, i.e., acquire the contact information of individuals potentially interested in the company’s offer. Here you will read how to generate leads easily and effectively with ClickMeeting.

What kind of results did these activities bring?

How much can you earn on paid events?

Earning from webinars comes in different forms. On the one hand, you can benefit indirectly. A great example is specifically lead generation. Even if you hold a free webinar, you receive data from people interested in your offer, letting you finalize sales in the long run.

Of course, webinars also help you make money directly. They are an essential tool for educators and trainers (the training and consulting sector accounts for 20% of events, and the edu industry, which includes public and private schools, is another 14%). So you can, for example, integrate ClickMeeting with your LMS and provide course participants with access to content both live and in an automated or on-demand formula.

But a great way to monetize is to sell event tickets. It’s extremely easy: just integrate ClickMeeting with PayPal and select the appropriate option when creating a webinar. How much can you earn this way? Here are the latest figures:

A record holder earned €156,768 during the year solely on hosting paid events on ClickMeeting. It was Ultrasound training for medics course with 31 events and 6825 tickets sold.
A webinar on getting children to sleep on their own host earned €37,175 from a live event.
Webinar on teacher methodology earned €15,553.
