What you'll need to fill in
This script has 5 details to fill in before you read it. Have these to hand — the customizer above updates the script as you type:
- Name
- Specific High-Value Topic
- Specific Objection
- Direct Answer
- The Offer
That timing assumes about 130 words a minute, which is a normal conversational pace. If you are presenting to a room you will likely go slower; if you are nervous you will go faster. Read it aloud once and time yourself before it matters.
When to use this script
Use this when attendance drops off before you reach the point. Webinars have a brutal retention curve — a large share of the audience leaves in the first ten minutes, usually during housekeeping — and the parts that determine whether they stay are exactly the parts hosts improvise: the opening, the transitions, and the offer.
It is also the format where handoffs matter most. Moving between hosts, speakers, and Q&A is where webinars lose their momentum, and those joins benefit enormously from being written rather than negotiated live.
Making it sound like you
- Move housekeeping after the hook. Telling people where the chat box is before giving them a reason to stay is the classic webinar mistake.
- Make the promise specific and early, then deliver on it before the offer.
- Script the handoffs by name so speaker transitions do not stall.
- Write the offer transition carefully. It is the moment most likely to feel abrupt, and the wording is what makes it feel earned or not.
Reading it out loud
You are usually presenting slides while talking, so keep the script on the display nearest your camera and the deck on the other. Set the scroll pace by reading aloud rather than silently — webinar scripts are long, and pace errors compound over an hour.

Questions about this script
How long does this post-webinar follow-up video script take to read?
The script runs to about 86 words, which is roughly 40 sec at a normal speaking pace of around 130 words a minute. Your own pace will vary, so time one read-through before you rely on the number.
What do I need to prepare before using this script?
There are 5 details to fill in: Name, Specific High-Value Topic, Specific Objection, Direct Answer, The Offer. Enter them in the customizer and the script updates as you type, then opens straight in the teleprompter.
When should housekeeping go in a webinar?
After the hook, not before it. Attendees who have not yet been given a reason to stay will leave during the housekeeping, which is why so much webinar drop-off happens in the first few minutes.
How much of a webinar should be scripted?
The opening, the transitions between speakers or sections, and the offer or close. The teaching content and the Q&A work better with an outline, because that is where audiences want you responsive rather than polished.
