Mission
Our mission is to help you reach as many people as possible, with as little of your time as possible.
Every business has something it needs to say over and over… demos, onboarding calls, training sessions. When all of that depends on a person being there live, you only ever get in front of a fraction of the people who want (or need) to hear it.
And that limits your growth.
We built a way to say it once and reach everyone. Your reach grows. Your impact grows. Your business grows. But your workload and your headcount don’t.
The best part is, none of it costs your customers anything. They get your best version every time, and they can still ask questions and get answers from a real person.
Which leaves you free to put your energy on the relationships that matter most. Whether that's connecting with your most important customers, spending an afternoon with your family and friends, or doing absolutely nothing at all. We really don't care.
We just want to make it so that you can do you.
How we got here
Our Story
eWebinar cofounder and CEO, Melissa Kwan, had sold her company, Spacio, the real estate industry’s #1 open house sign-in platform, and was already thinking about what to build next.
She picked the thing that had frustrated her most at Spacio: doing the same webinar over and over and still never reaching 100% of her customers.
Two years earlier, as Spacio was gaining traction, new customers were signing up every day. To keep up, Melissa started running daily training sessions herself. At her peak, she had eight back-to-back sessions, all exactly the same, just a different set of customers each time.
Scores of people would sign up and only a handful would show. The effort was the same either way. The same script, same questions, same jokes, whether two people were in the room or two hundred. It was repetitive and exhausting, though that wasn’t the part that bothered her most. What bothered her was that no matter how many sessions she ran, it was never enough. Customers in other time zones could never make any of them. The more the company grew, the further behind she got.
The problem wasn't her effort. She was running as many sessions as one person could. But live only works when both sides have the same schedule and intention, and most of the time they don't.
She went looking for software that could deliver her sessions without needing her there every time.
What she found was uninspiring. Outdated, clunky, poorly designed, nothing she wanted to put her brand on. Some of it was worse than that, built to trick people into thinking a session was live when it wasn’t, with fake attendee counts and fake chats. None of it had a real chat system, so there was no way for anyone watching to ask her a question.
She picked the least bad option anyway, and stopped running trainings live that same week.
Over the next two years, she onboarded more than 50,000 customers across more than 5,000 sessions she never had to attend. She could not have grown Spacio any other way, especially as a bootstrapped startup.
After Spacio was acquired, she put a team together to build it properly. The thing she had always dreamt about: something that could do her job for her, while she went and did literally anything else.
That’s eWebinar.
The product Melissa never found: easy to use, nice to look at, honest about being pre-recorded, and built so the people watching can still talk to a real person on their own time.
What’s most gratifying to her now is hearing from eWebinar customers, businesses of all sizes, who describe their before and after exactly the way she would have.
The people behind it
Our Team
We're a small team, and we like it that way. Our goal has always been to have the smallest, most productive team possible.
Across the founding team, there's more than 70 years of experience in business strategy, technology, sales, product, design, and customer success. Which is another way of saying we've made a lot of mistakes and figured out what not to do.
Our team is spread all over the place. Canada, the US, the Netherlands, Vietnam, Turkey, and the Philippines. Nobody has an assigned chair in an assigned city. We think people are happiest, and do their best work, when they get to decide every morning where that happens.
Freedom was Melissa's number one priority long before eWebinar existed. It would have felt strange to build a company that didn't hand the same thing to the people building it.
Which is sort of the whole idea. eWebinar frees your best work from one time and one place. We figured we should live that way too.
