The webinar software EverWebinar (for automated webinars) and WebinarJam (for live webinars) can also be connected to Quentn. This allows you to use Quentn to run follow-up campaigns for your webinar attendees, for example.
You have two options for creating contacts from Webinarjam / Everwebinar in Quentn. It depends on whether you have a Basic or Pro account and whether you want to use Zapier.
Pro account: Create contacts from forwarding
From a Quentn Pro account onwards, the “Forwarding” event element is available to you.
You can use it to send contacts who register for a webinar to Quentn and create them there.
Advantage: You can use this element to transfer the webinar room URL! (This is not possible with Zapier).
Proceed as follows:
Preparation
Create your own contact field
Create a contact field of the type URL. This should later contain the webinar room URL.
Create a contact field of the type Date. This should later contain the webinar date.
Create a thank you page
You need a thank you page for your leads after registration. You can either create one in Quentn or create a page elsewhere.
Copy the URL of the page.
In Quentn
- In Quentn, drag the “Redirection” event element into your campaign.
- For “Target URL”, enter the URL you just copied that leads to the thank you page after registration.
- You can also use placeholders for contact fields in the URL here again, e.g. to pre-fill a form on the target page.
- Now assign the Webinarjam parameters to the fields. A list of which parameters Webinarjam passes and what they are called can be found here.
- If you want to assign tags, enter a parameter for this in the field, e.g. “tag”
- Don't forget to assign the webinar room URL and Webinar date to your own fields! Make sure to use the parameter for the Unix timestamp. Only then can you react to the date in a date timer, e.g. to send reminder emails in advance.
- As soon as you have finished configuring the element, copy the element URL and save.
Attention: You may have to adjust the element URL manually! E.g. when assigning tags.
Insert the element URL into a document. At the point where tag=[value] appears, remove everything after the = and then write the tag IDs of the desired tags. Multiple IDs are separated by a comma.
So if your desired tags have the IDs 1, 8 and 12, it will look like this in the URL:
https://qrxemh.eu-5.quentn-site.com/public/r/320/qwqjb4MoCKL6Btq7V05u4w?wj_lead_email=[value]&wj_lead_first_name=[value]&wj_lead_last_name=[value]&tag=1,8,12&wj_lead_unique_link_live_room=[value]&wj_event_ts=[value]
In Webinarjam
- Create your webinar and follow the steps.
- In the “Thank You” step, select “Your own Custom Page”.
- Now enter the element URL under “Your post-registration confirmation page”.
- Follow the next steps to complete your webinar.
Back in Quentn
- Remember: The contacts will all be created as single opt-ins and cannot be contacted. It is best to attach the email confirmation now so that the leads complete the double opt-in and can therefore be contacted.
- You can now send the personal webinar room URL to the contacts in the sequence. Use the special link for this.
Test it!
Register in your webinar with a test address.
Check whether this has been created in your Quentn account.
Basic account: Connection via Zapier
Step 1: Create website
- Under "New Webinar", you first need to create your webinar (whether it is with WebinarJam or EverWebinar).
- Skip the item "Integration" and finish configuring your webinar.
Step 2: Create a Zap in Zapier: Trigger
- Create a Zap in Zapier.
- Enter "WebinarJam" as the trigger (even if you have a webinar running on EverWebinar. This is done through Zapier's software).
- The following options are available:
- New registration
- New live attendee
- Registrant misses webinar
- Registrant purchases
- Registrant attends replay
- Registrant stays until
- Registrant leaves before
- Registrant joins webinar after
In this example we'll select the trigger "Registrant stays until".
- Click on continue and connect WebinarJam to Zapier. To do this, enter the WebinarJam API key in the pop-up window.
- Now select the webinar in question and determine the hour and minute from which the trigger should take effect. For example, enter 0 at hour 0 and 5 at minute 5 if you want to record all participants who have viewed the first 5 minutes of your webinar.
- Now click on continue, select an example (usually you don't need to click on anything else here except continue again) and complete the step.
- Go to the invitation page of your webinar and register for an appointment
- To register, please use an email address that is not yet present in your Quentn system
- After about 5 minutes, check whether the contact has been created in your Quentn system
- Was the contact created? If so, EverWebinar has been successfully integrated.
Step 3: Create a Zap in Zapier: Action
- Select Quentn as the action step.
- Click on “Create or update contact”.
- You may need to connect Quentn (click here to find out where to find your API key from Quentn).
- Now specify the host (if you have several).
- Determine the fields which you want to transfer to Quentn. IMPORTANT: the email and at least one tag in "Add tag" must not be missing.
- Now click on continue and check your details. After this, you can send a test.
- Click on finish, give your Zap a name and move the slider to "on".
Step 4: Check
- To verify that the integration was successful, go back to WebinarJam or EverWebinar and click on "Edit" on the appropriate webinar .
- Go to "Integrations".
- Zapier should now be displayed here.
Step 5: Create a campaign in Quentn
- Start your campaign with the event element "Tag(s) changed".
- Configure the item by double-clicking on it and selecting the tag you have just defined in the Zap.
- Now you can create your campaign, e.g. with a DOI element and the sequence that follows.
Step 6: Test the integration
- Go to the invitation page of your webinar and register for an appointment.
- To register, please use an email address that is not yet available in your Quentn system.
- After about 5 minutes, check if the contact has been created in your Quentn system.
- Was the contact created? If so, EverWebinar/WebinarJam has been successfully integrated.
