Online Conferencing by AccessAbility Solutions
Putting on a large event online is quite a daunting task. Since Covid-19 I have been doing a lot of them and have picked up some valuable hints and tips on doing them. So much so that I would like to offer it to anyone out there who wants to put on an event. I can do the following for you:-
- Setup an Eventbrite meeting with online Zoom plugin
- Use of a Zoom Pro account with Otter.AI live transcription
- Plan and advise on content and organisation of Breakout Rooms
- Run and tech support the event giving peace of mind to you the organiser
- Manage any access and running difficulties on the day.
- Provide advice on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn posting for your event.
No event too small or too big. I can manage up to 500 attendees with my extended Pro account. I work in a professional and friendly manner. And my rates are reasonable based on an hourly rate. You only pay for the work I do for you.
