Chapter 1: What are online events?

Online events are nothing new; I attended my first ones in 2000 at a site calledHer events which is no longer in business. There were tables; each person or group had their own rooms. There was a page to present your companies products and a chat room where you could participate or you could host a chat in. While this was good it was also new and traffic was not yet established. I learned a lot and did make some contacts. Being a chat host at iVillage at that time, I found and still find chat rooms one of the most effective tools for business.

In 2003 we hosted our first online expo with around 70 vendors. At another online event center called Mouse Connection, and it was a learning experience again for me as I was building each table, setting up and recruiting the vendor and doing promoting with a group of friends. That was the first Celebrating Home Business Fair, and this year 2007 and I must add; we are hosting our 5th Show, and our 4th in our Own event center.

Online Expos and parties are designed to put you in front of real live people in a chat system, and give you the opportunity to make new connections and gather leads, showcase your business, product or services and yes make some sales. It is first and foremost a great place to connect with others and get the word out about your business.

We hope this ebook will give you a better idea of the importance of these events and how to get the most out of this amazing Media. Online event and parties can put you in front of people but what you do with those opportunities, leads and contacts are up to you.
