How to Add a Speaker or Person to the Stage for your Webinar or Virtual Event (Live)

In Welcome's webinar platform you can add people or shared screens to the stage. To add a person to the stage they first need to be in the Green Room within Welcome Studio. If they are NOT in the Green Room already, you'll need to invite them.

‍

Inviting users into the Green Room is very simple. Go to the People Tab at the top of the Interaction Panel on the right. Find the user, hover mouse over the profile image of the user, and a blue arrow will appear (see below) for you to click on. The user will receive an invite request and a Green Room prompt (see second image below).

‍

Once they accept the invitation they will enter the green room. In the example below, you can see there are two people in the Green Room. “You” and “Roberto”. 

‍

‍

To put Roberto on the stage, simply hover over the stage and check the box next to the person's name you want to put on stage. In this example, we want to put Roberto on the stage, so we will check his box. 

‍

‍

Then click “Update Stage”

‍

You can now see Roberto is on the main stage and visible to all attendees. You’ll also notice that within the Green Room, Roberto is labeled as “On Stage”. 

‍

He will remain on the stage until you remove him from the stage by hovering over the stage, UNCHECKING the box next to his name, and clicking “Update Stage”.
