All The Different Options Can Be Overwhelming  And each new option begs a series of different questions. Questions like... - What happens if I have to add sessions? - What if the client wants to update the portal graphics? - How do we manage on-demand after the live session is over? - What are the engagement options available to us? - What if we want to change the security option? And on and on and on. They Charge Extra for That And sometimes, the answer to these questions can leave you feeling a little nickel and dimed. If you want to rebrand the portal, most webcast companies will charge you extra for that beyond the application license. Same with adding sessions during the event. Most will charge extra. Want to upload a new video for on-demand or trim heads and tails off the previously live version? Extra. Add an engagement feature like Moderated Q&A or Chat? Change the security option from email only to email and Access Code, or even use a company SSO? Yep, they charge extra! You got it. Extra. And all those extras can either impact your budget or put you in a position where you have to have a conversation with the client.
