Let's face it, folks. We’re living in an age where our attention spans are shorter than ever and keeping your audience engaged is tougher than ever, especially during online sessions. But when it comes to sales training for luxury goods and services on MS Teams, keeping your audience actively engaged isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s mission-critical. Because let’s be real, if your salespeople miss out on some vital info during the session, it could cost your company big time. So, let’s talk about how to keep your live audience not only attentive but super engaged using StreamAlive's fantastic features.
Map Their Journeys with Magic Maps
Start your session with a bang by bringing your global audience closer together using Magic Maps. Ask your attendees to share where they’re tuning in from or what their dream luxury travel destinations are. It’s a great icebreaker and immediately puts them at ease, making them feel part of a global community. You can even ask which city they associate with luxury shopping or fine dining. This visual representation not only intrigues and excites attendees but helps build a map-themed narrative for your entire session, making everyone feel included and valued.
Open Up with Opinion Polls
Some questions need more than just a simple option. That's where Opinion Polls come in to capture detailed thoughts and ideas. Maybe you want to know the challenges they face in luxury sales or ask for strategies they've found successful. These answers can be a goldmine for steering your session. Plus, attendees feel heard and appreciated when their open-ended responses are validated, boosting knowledge retention as they learn through peer experiences.
Stir Engagement with Power Polls
Nothing beats seeing live, real-time feedback. During your session, run a Power Poll to get instant reactions and feedback on various sales tactics or luxury brands you’re discussing. Ask attendees which feature they think is the ultimate game-changer in luxury sales or what they consider the most effective client engagement strategy. The beauty here is that everyone gets to see the results as they come in, creating a lively and interactive virtual atmosphere that mimics those real-world sales floors.
Keep Them Guessing with Winner Wheel
Mid-session energy dropping? Not on our watch! Use the Winner Wheel to pick a random participant to share their thoughts or experiences on a certain sales strategy you’re discussing. It's a fun way to keep everyone on their toes. You could also use it for giveaways—a little incentive can boost participation big time. Or perhaps, reward the most active participant who’s consistently posting valuable insights. The unpredictability of it keeps the adrenaline flowing, adding a gamified element to your live session.
Bring Ideas to Life with Wonder Words
Everyone loves to see their ideas grow! With Wonder Words, create a dynamic word cloud to visualize responses to questions like ‘What single word comes to mind when you think of luxury sales?’ or ‘Share a word that identifies your main takeaway from today’s session.’ As the words fill the screen, participants can literally see the collective mindset of the group, which can be a powerful moment. This real-time interaction not only helps cement concepts in their minds but also creates a memorable, shared experience.
Decide with Choice Circle
Nothing beats seeing live, real-time feedback. During your session, run a Power Poll to get instant reactions and feedback on various sales tactics or luxury brands you’re discussing. Ask attendees which feature they think is the ultimate game-changer in luxury sales or what they consider the most effective client engagement strategy. The beauty here is that everyone gets to see the results as they come in, creating a lively and interactive virtual atmosphere that mimics those real-world sales floors.
