How to Solve for Event Promotion Overload

As B2B SaaS companies expand their thought leadership and demand generation efforts, their marketing teams often struggle with the volume of webinars and virtual events they must plan and promote. The cycle of webinar execution - from topic ideation to speaker coordination to promotion - can lead to burnout, inconsistent messaging, and suboptimal results.

Marketing teams dedicate significant time to manually plan webinars, write promotional copy, and determine distribution for each event. This approach consumes time and often results in inconsistent branding, missed promotion opportunities, and failure to maximize the ROI of the webinar content afterward.

A solution exists to simplify the entire process, from planning to promotion to post-event follow-up. This solution saves time, ensures consistent messaging, and increases the impact of every webinar.

How Copy.ai's Campaign Execution Package Simplifies Webinar Promotion

Copy.ai's Campaign Execution package includes two key workflows that work in tandem to simplify webinar promotion from start to finish:

• Content Distribution workflow - automates the strategic distribution and repurposing of webinar content across multiple channels
• Paid Media Copy workflow - creates compelling ad copy to promote the webinar to target audiences

These workflows, used together as part of a comprehensive GTM AI strategy, allow small marketing teams to execute numerous high-impact webinars with consistent messaging and branding. Let's examine each one:

1. Content Distribution Workflow (Campaign Execution package)

The Content Distribution workflow functions as a strategic promotion planner, ensuring effective distribution of webinar content across multiple channels for maximum reach and impact.

Inputs Needed:

• Details of the content to be distributed

What the Workflow Does:

• Step 1: Creates a strategic multi-channel distribution plan based on the provided schedule
• Step 2: Tailors the webinar messaging for each specific distribution channel
• Step 3: Creates channel-specific promotional content (reminder emails, social posts, blog posts, partner blurbs, etc.)

Example Output: A 2-week webinar promotion plan, complete with tailored messaging and content pieces for email nurtures, social media, blog posts, and partner sites. The plan covers all channels and strategically repurposes content for maximum impact.

The Content Distribution workflow offers significant benefits:

• Implements a systematic and strategic approach to webinar promotion
• Increases webinar reach and registrations through multi-channel distribution
• Reduces time spent by automating the content creation for each channel
• Improves the impact and effectiveness of webinar promotion efforts

2. Paid Media Copy Workflow (Campaign Execution package)

To further expand webinar reach and drive registrations, the Paid Media Copy workflow creates click-worthy ad copy for social media and search engine marketing campaigns.

Inputs Needed:

• Details of the paid media campaign
• Target keywords and audiences

What the Workflow Does:

• Step 1: Develops attention-grabbing headlines based on the webinar's key themes
• Step 2: Creates compelling ad copy that addresses the target audience's pain points and highlights the webinar's value
• Step 3: Produces multiple ad variations for A/B testing and optimization

Example Output: A series of webinar ad copy variations tailored for each target audience segment, ready to fuel paid social media and SEM campaigns. The ads aim to capture attention, generate interest, and drive registrations.

The Paid Media Copy workflow offers several advantages:

• Facilitates quick creation of effective webinar ad copy for multiple audiences
• Ensures ad messaging resonates with each target audience
• Reduces time and cost by simplifying the ad creation process
• Increases webinar registrations through targeted paid amplification

Combining the Workflows

Together, the Content Distribution and Paid Media Copy workflows create a comprehensive webinar promotion system:

1. Automated Planning: Efficiently create a multi-channel promotion schedule
2. Tailored Messaging: Adapt the webinar messaging for each distribution channel and audience segment
3. Quick Creation: Automatically generate the promotional content and ad copy needed to execute the plan
4. Targeted Amplification: Expand the webinar's reach and impact through targeted paid media

These workflows automate time-consuming aspects of webinar promotion, allowing marketers to focus on strategy, creativity, and optimization rather than content creation and channel management details.

Limitations of Copilots

While AI copilots like ChatGPT can assist with writing individual pieces of promotional copy, they cannot create a comprehensive, multi-channel promotion strategy.

Copilots lack the ability to:

• Create a strategic promotion schedule across multiple channels
• Adapt messaging for different audience segments and distribution channels
• Provide necessary inputs and context for effective paid media campaigns
• Enable organization-wide visibility and alignment on the webinar promotion plan

Using only copilots risks creating inconsistent messaging and a disjointed approach to webinar promotion. Structured workflows prove necessary to truly simplify the process and maximize results.

Future Opportunities

With streamlined webinar promotion, marketing teams can address other strategic priorities:

• Develop a comprehensive Demand Generation Content Library to support the funnel (using the Content Generation Package)
• Launch an ongoing social media and content engine to build brand authority (using the Organic Social Media Package)
• Expand ABM campaigns to engage and convert high-value accounts (using the ABM Campaign Package)

Copy.ai's GTM AI Platform enables B2B SaaS companies to increase growth and efficiency across all funnel stages. Automation of repetitive tasks allows teams to prioritize strategy, creativity, and driving measurable business impact.

The end goal? Reducing GTM inefficiencies to achieve faster GTM results. This process begins by addressing the webinar promotion challenge - and Copy.ai's Campaign Execution package provides the solution.
