Otherwise they could lose interest. Then your time, effort and financial investment could go to waste. We can help you keep your audience engaged by teaching you how to live stream better webinars.

How To Live Stream Better

Our training will help you improve your production values and upgrade your ability. Don’t know the first thing about how to live stream? No problem. Even if you’re new to creating live digital experiences*, we will explain the process in plain language.

You might need to buy kit. If so, we can help you identify what you need and show you where to get it to suit your budget. But if you have your own equipment already, we can check it out and spot missing elements and help you fill the gaps. Then we will get into the training.

* You’re probably not. You’ve probably done a few video calls by now…

This training is for educators and marketers who need to engage their audiences. You will learn a mixture of creative approaches and technical production skills. Moreover, we’ll help you enhance your webinar delivery. Since 2000, Inner Ear has pioneered specialist expertise in live streaming. So, we can help you transform the way you connect with your audience online. Furthermore, Inner Ear has taught people how to live stream for over twenty years. As a result, our satisfied training clients include: Creative Scotland, National Piping Centre, XpoNorth, SafeDeposits Scotland, Glasgow City Heritage Trust, Dunoon Burgh Hall and Stills Gallery.

Our clients say

Katharine Neil, Heritage Officer, Glasgow City Heritage Trust

Inner Ear the provided Glasgow City Heritage Trust team with invaluable training which has enabled us to start streaming our events.

They provided us with an introductory session which went over the basics of streaming as well as what equipment we needed. This was incredibly useful as they pointed things out to us we hadn’t even considered and gave us information on equipment we didn’t realise we needed.

They came back to provide us with training on the equipment and have been on hand to assist with troubleshooting in the weeks afterwards. They replied really quickly to any emails about issues we were having and made themselves available to test things and sort any teething problems. Dougal also attended our first live streamed event to ensure it ran smoothly.

We would have struggled to buy the correct equipment and set it all up correctly without the guidance of Inner Ear and would highly recommend them for training and advice on how to live stream events.

Alan Partridge, Marketing Manager, SafeDeposits Scotland

My company provides webinars to customers. We were looking to enhance these. But although we had the kit we did not have the knowledge or experience to link this with our vision. I was not even sure if the type of training we required was available, at least locally. But after finding Inner Ear on Google, I spoke to Dougal who got exactly what we were looking for and proposed a training plan tailored to our needs. My colleagues and I had two fantastic sessions with Dougal, which really improved our knowledge and confidence to move our output up a gear. I would highly recommend Inner Ear for any support surrounding live streaming and broadcasting.

Claire Cochrane, Engagement Producer, Stills Gallery, Edinburgh

Had a training session with Dougal to help with Live Streaming. Great session — clear information. Great tailored advice and support with the first live streaming event. Vast improvements on our previous attempts and more manageable than expected. Great follow up support and resources.
