NetSendo v1.3.1: Your Integrated Webinar Platform

🚀 Turn Your Email List into a Webinar Audience, Instantly

Tired of juggling separate platforms for your email marketing and webinars? The constant data syncing, the clunky user experience, the extra subscription costs—it all creates friction and slows down your growth. What if your webinar platform was built right into your marketing automation tool, giving you full ownership of your data and unlimited potential?

That's exactly what we've built. NetSendo v1.3.1 is a game-changing update that transforms our platform into a powerful, integrated webinar and autowebinar solution. Now you can create, manage, and promote your webinars directly within NetSendo, turning your subscribers into attendees with a single click.

TL;DR: NetSendo v1.3.1 introduces a complete webinar suite with advanced scheduling (recurring, on-demand), one-click auto-registration from email campaigns, full timezone support, and manual status controls. It's an all-in-one solution for hosting engaging events on your self-hosted platform.

✨ What's New in the Webinar Suite

This release is packed with features designed to give you unparalleled control and automation capabilities for your online events.

Seamless Email & Webinar Integration

This is the star of the show. You can now directly link any webinar to an email campaign. By adding the new [[webinar_register_link]] placeholder to your email, you create a frictionless experience for your subscribers.

When a subscriber clicks the link, they are automatically registered for the webinar and redirected straight to the watch page. No forms, no extra steps. This simple, powerful feature dramatically increases conversion rates from subscriber to attendee.

ℹ️ How it works: We generate a unique, signed URL for each subscriber. This ensures the auto-registration process is secure and correctly attributes the registration to the right contact in your list.

One-Click Registration

Boost attendance by removing registration barriers directly from your emails.

📅

Advanced Scheduling

Set up recurring, fixed-date, or on-demand autowebinars to run on autopilot.

🌍

Full Timezone Support

Attendees see event times in their local timezone, reducing confusion and no-shows.

Advanced Autowebinar Scheduling

Move beyond one-off live events. The new "Schedule" UI lets you put your webinars on autopilot, creating evergreen assets that generate leads and nurture customers 24/7. Supported types include:

  • Recurring: Run sessions every day at specific times (e.g., daily at 10 AM and 2 PM).
  • Fixed Dates: Schedule a series of one-time events for a product launch or special series.
  • On-demand: Allow subscribers to watch instantly, whenever they're ready.
  • Evergreen: Simulate a live event that's always just about to start.

Total Control Over Your Webinar Lifecycle

We've added a new status dropdown that gives you manual control over your webinar's state. You can now seamlessly transition your event from Draft → Scheduled → Live → Ended → Published. Timestamps like started_at and ended_at are updated automatically, ensuring your event data is always accurate.

🎯 Benefits & Use Cases

An integrated webinar system unlocks powerful new strategies for your business, all from the self-hosted platform you control.

  5. Add the Magic Link

    In your email editor, add a button or link and set the URL to [[webinar_register_link]]. NetSendo will automatically replace this with a unique link for each subscriber.

  6. Launch and Analyze

    Send your campaign! Subscribers who click will be instantly registered for the next available session, and you can track attendees right inside NetSendo.

🎯 Expert Tips

1
Segment Your Audience

Create follow-up email sequences based on webinar attendance. Send a special offer to those who attended the full session and a replay link to those who missed it. Since all data is in NetSendo, this is easy to automate.

2
Use the Public Link

Don't forget about the public registration link! Copy it from the webinar edit page and share it on your social media channels or in your website's header to capture leads from outside your existing email list.

3
Leverage On-Demand Replays

After a live event ends, change its status to "Published". This makes it available as an on-demand replay. You can use this as a permanent lead magnet in your evergreen funnels.

⚠️ Important: The new Webinar Email Integration requires NetSendo v1.3.1 or later. Please ensure your instance is up to date to access these features.
