KnowBe4 brings in new business
KnowBe4, the global software technology company intent on conquering human error, was determined to bring awareness to how AI can help companies navigate email security threats. As a result of the company’s engaging webinar, they saw almost 2,000 registrants and over 900 attendants from three separate webinar airings across various time zones.
Using the ON24 Intelligent Engagement Platform and its webinar and content hub capabilities the KnowBe4 team could easily connect and interact with its target audiences either live or on-demand. The team also used features such as automatically issuing certifications after certain criteria are met and featured resources to drive viewers to other content in their content hub.
A clean, well-organized console was the name of the game for KnowBe4. Since AI and phishing are top of mind for both security professionals and consumers worried about cybersecurity, “Request a PhishER Demo and PhishER Quote” were two webinar-based CTAs on the bottom of the console. The company has seen more than $346,000 in new business opportunities since the webinar first aired in late 2023.

NASFAA plays Jeopardy
NASFAA, the nonprofit association with a focus on professional development, wanted to help financial aid professionals take a deeper dive into topics such as aid program eligibility and application processing. To help viewers learn in an engaging way, NASFAA turned its webinar into a classic game of “Jeopardy!”
Guest contestants were located throughout the United States; the game included both the original theme song and a round of Double Jeopardy! for the speakers to answer. Audience members weren’t left behind: viewers could type answers into the event’s live chat feature to participate.
NASFAA’s webinar goals included at least a 95% satisfaction rating on survey questions following the webinar.
With ON24, NASFAA exceeded it target: 99.4% of viewers rated the effectiveness of the presenter as “excellent” or “good” in the webinar format (with Jeopardy being one of the main reasons for the high rating). 100% answered “yes” when asked if they found the webinar useful, and 100% answered “yes” to recommending future NASFAA webinars to colleagues.
The most important takeaway was that having fun with your audience is a great way to make the webinar experience memorable. Attendants felt less like they were watching another regular webinar, and more that they were at home with their favorite Jeopardy episode.

Wood PLC engages with viewers
Wood PLC, one of the leading consulting and engineering firms in the energy and materials sector, sought to share some common solutions to vibration problems affecting the safety and accuracy of piping systems used within its industry.
