Manage episode 508406290 series 3484829
Shaheen Samavati, Co-founder and CEO of Vera Content, explores career mistakes through a cautionary tale of a webinar gone wrong during severe storms in Spain. 😱
Shaheen a committed marketing agency owner, shares how forgetting to hit record on a high-profile influencer webinar with 1,000 registrants and 350 live attendees created an expensive problem requiring a completely new recording session.
• Decision to collaborate with a major industry influencer through a joint webinar required significant financial investment
• Webinar coincided with severe flooding and storms in southern Spain, creating additional stress
• Technical limitations of the GetResponse platform restricted administrative access to three seats
• Critical error occurred when no one pressed record despite plans to share the recording with registrants
• Influencer initially wanted full payment to re-record, but eventually offered a discount
