Role Overview

As part of the SayPro Monthly January SCSPR-98 Funding Advisory Program, the Workshops and Webinars Coordinator will be responsible for organizing online and in-person workshops and webinars to educate program participants on funding strategies and investment opportunities. These sessions will provide participants with valuable knowledge about various funding sources, how to approach investors, and the best strategies to secure capital for their business.

      • Types of funding (venture capital, loans, grants, etc.)
      • Crafting a compelling pitch
      • Navigating investor relations
      • Financial forecasting and budgeting for growth
      • Legal and compliance considerations when seeking funding
      • Alternative funding sources like crowdfunding or angel investment

    • Ensure that guest speakers have expertise in funding, investment strategies, and the specific challenges faced by businesses in the manufacturing and technology sectors.
  • Logistics and Scheduling:
    • Organize virtual webinars using platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or other suitable software for online events.
    • Arrange in-person events in suitable locations (conference rooms, event spaces, etc.) that can accommodate the target audience while adhering to any necessary health and safety guidelines.
    • Determine the timing and frequency of the workshops and webinars to ensure maximum attendance and engagement.
  • Marketing and Promotion:
    • Create promotional materials (e.g., flyers, social media posts, email newsletters) to generate interest and encourage participation in the workshops and webinars.
    • Promote the events to current and potential participants, ensuring they are aware of the valuable content being offered.

2. Content Development and Presentation

The coordinator will work closely with the speakers and experts to ensure that the content presented during the workshops and webinars is informative, engaging, and directly applicable to the participants’ needs.

  • Agenda Development:
    • Develop clear and structured agendas for each workshop or webinar, outlining key topics, session timings, and speaker responsibilities.
    • Ensure that the agenda allows time for Q&A, interactive discussions, and participant feedback.
  • Supporting Materials:
    • Collaborate with speakers to develop presentation slides, handouts, and other materials that participants can refer to during and after the session.
    • Provide templates, checklists, and resource lists on topics like writing pitch decks, understanding financials, and securing funding.
  • Interactive Features:
    • Incorporate interactive elements such as live polls, Q&A sessions, case studies, and real-time problem-solving to engage participants and ensure the content is applicable to their businesses.
    • Organize breakout sessions in online webinars, allowing participants to network and discuss specific challenges in smaller groups.

3. Facilitating Workshop and Webinar Sessions

The coordinator will be actively involved in the execution of the workshops and webinars, ensuring the events run smoothly and participants have a positive experience.

  • Participant Engagement:
    • Encourage active participation by prompting questions from attendees, creating opportunities for them to share their experiences, and addressing any concerns they may have about the funding process.
    • Create a welcoming and interactive environment, both online and in-person, to ensure participants feel comfortable and engaged.
  • Networking Opportunities:
    • Allow time for networking during or after the events. In webinars, this can include virtual breakout rooms or post-event networking hours. For in-person events, this can include casual meet-and-greet sessions or roundtable discussions.

4. Post-Event Support and Follow-up

After each workshop or webinar, the coordinator will ensure that participants have access to follow-up materials and opportunities for continued learning.

  • Post-Event Materials:
    • Distribute recordings of the webinars, presentation slides, and any additional resources or reading materials discussed during the event.
    • Provide a summary document or key takeaways from each workshop or webinar for easy reference.
  • Participant Feedback:

    • Analyze feedback to improve the quality and relevance of future workshops and webinars.
  • Ongoing Learning Opportunities:

    • Encourage participants to stay engaged with the SayPro Funding Advisory Program through additional resources, workshops, or one-on-one consultations.

5. Tracking and Reporting Event Outcomes

The coordinator will also track the success of each workshop or webinar and ensure that the objectives of the program are being met.

  • Engagement Metrics:
    • Track attendance rates, engagement levels (e.g., participation in polls, questions asked), and overall satisfaction to measure the effectiveness of each event.
  • Event Impact:
    • Track how many participants successfully secure funding or make connections as a result of attending the workshops and webinars, and report these outcomes to the team.
