Hey there, fellow Zoom host! Picture this: you're leading an online sales training session for cybersecurity firms. It's a topic that needs extra attention because missing just one piece of info during a sales call can be costly. So, how do you make sure your audience is not just present but actively engaging, hanging onto your every word, and retaining what they learn? That's the magic of engagement. When your audience is engaged, they're more attentive and can retain information better, resulting in more impactful sales processes. Let's dive into some super cool, interactive features from StreamAlive that will help you boost engagement, attendance, and keep your training session interactive and unforgettable.
Put Your Sales Team on the Map
Let's face it, folks love talking about themselves. Starting your session by asking 'Where in the world are you joining us from?' is a great icebreaker.

Delve Deep with Opinion Polls
Sometimes you need more than just a yes or no answer, and that’s where Open-Ended Opinion Polls come in handy. During your sales training, you can ask open-ended questions like ‘Describe your best sales experience in the field’ or ‘What’s one cybersecurity threat every salesperson should know about?’ This encourages individuals to share detailed insights and personal experiences, making your session richer and more interactive. It’s like turning your audience into a treasure trove of real sales experiences.
