Before the promotion starts
Every link you promote points at something. A finished signup page caps seats, tracks who is in, and reads clearly across time zones, so the work is done before the interest arrives.
Promotion that points at nothing converts nobody twice. The colleague who forwarded your post, the friend who meant to sign up that evening: by the time they click, your first wave of attention is one dead link away from forgotten. The sequence that works is the unglamorous one. Set up the page, test it yourself from beginning to end, then start talking about the session.
Doing it in that order changes what the page can tell you. With the seats chosen before the promotion begins, your registrant list is a real ledger from the first reply: names ticking in against a known capacity, which lets you decide the honest moment to shout louder or stop.
Finish these before any link goes out. None of them takes long, and all of them are miserable to fix mid-campaign.
A bare half-seven means six different hours to six different people. Write the zone next to the time in the headline, the form, and the reminder.
Thursday 12 March, not next Thursday. Promotions travel slowly, and relative dates age badly in a forwarded message.
Ninety minutes, and what happens in each part. Someone in an awkward zone wants to know whether the end is negotiable.
Attendees from far-off hours need to see the session is worth rearranging their evening for, stated without a single local reference.
Once the promotion is live, the list is the instrument you watch. Replies arrive as they happen, the seat count tells you whether to push harder or gently close the door, and the reminder emails go out on their own because you wrote them at setup.
The webinar invite carries all of this on one page, so the signup exists before the first post does. Nothing waits on a spreadsheet, a form-builder subscription, or a reminder you planned to type the night before.
How it works
Open a webinar invite in the app, or tell Jitabi the session details on WhatsApp. The registration form is part of the invite, ready the moment you are.
Choose the capacity tiers you can honour, then write and schedule the reminder emails in the same sitting.
Publish and register yourself. Check the private link arrives, the name lands on the list, and the times read correctly from wherever your audience sits.
Send the one link everywhere: posts, emails, forwarded chats. The list fills while you keep talking, and reminders carry people toward the session.
Questions
Before the first piece of promotion, which for most sessions means days rather than hours. Attention arrives at odd times, and a page that is ready turns a curious click into a registered name. Set up once, then promote without worry.
The smallest of these: what your video platform truly holds, what your speakers can handle in discussion, and what you can follow up on afterwards. A list capped at a number you can honour beats a big number that turns into apologies.
Yes. The registrant list updates as replies come in, so the effect of each post is visible within the hour. That is what makes the timing decisions possible: push more, stop, or mention that seats are filling.
Every reminder should carry the time and the zone together. A reminder written in the host's local hour quietly excludes half the list, and a wrong time in a reminder is worse than no reminder at all.
A page that is ready costs you nothing while you wait, and an early list is a useful signal for a second push. With the capacity in place, promotion is a decision you can make while the list sits open in the dashboard.
Get Started
Seats chosen, reminders written, list watched, times spelled out. Do the setup once, then let every post point at a page that works.
