Running Webinars with a Small Team? Simulive Has Your Back

If you’re part of a small marketing or events team, you know how tough it is to keep up with content demands. Webinars are powerful - but they can be time-consuming, stressful, and resource-heavy.

Simulive webinars change the game by letting you scale your webinar programme without scaling your team.

The Reality for Small Teams

Running a live webinar typically involves juggling multiple moving parts: sourcing the right presenters, coordinating schedules across calendars, managing all the technical logistics on the day, and handling live moderation, troubleshooting, and engagement. When you’re part of a small team - often wearing multiple hats - this kind of workload quickly adds up. It’s not just the time commitment; it’s the mental energy and planning required to keep everything on track. For a 1–3 person team already balancing other priorities, this can lead to burnout and missed opportunities.

Why Burnout Is a Huge Problem for Marketing Teams

Marketing teams are often at the centre of content production, campaign management, event planning, and lead generation - all at once. With high expectations and limited resources, it's no surprise that webinar burnout is a common and growing challenge. When you're constantly expected to deliver fresh, engaging webinars on top of everything else, it can lead to mental fatigue, rushed content, and diminished creativity.

Burnout leads to decreased productivity, higher error rates, and lower team morale. Worse still, it can result in missed opportunities, lower engagement, and a drop in the overall quality of your webinar programme. If you're a people first business, burnout should be nipped in the bud ASAP.

Where Simulive Comes In

Simulive allows you to pre-record your webinar content and play it back as live, removing the chaos of live-day execution. This format gives small teams a powerful "work smarter, not harder" advantage. Rather than stretching limited resources to deliver the same content multiple times, you can focus on perfecting it once and letting it scale naturally.

• More control: Record when it suits you. Approve the content. Schedule it.
• Less pressure: No need to juggle webcams, slides, and Q&A in real-time.
• Repeatability: You can run the same session again and again, creating consistency without added effort.

Simulive helps small teams avoid the treadmill of live production. By reducing the manual labour and mental load of each webinar, you open up space to focus on content strategy, audience engagement, and continuous improvement - without burning out.

Real-World Example

One of our customers, Telit Citerion, ran 50 Simulive webinars over three years - with a lean team. They embraced Simulive to take the pressure off their presenters, allowing them to pre-record sessions at their convenience and schedule them to run as if live. This gave them the flexibility to maintain a consistent webinar presence without overextending internal resources. The freed-up time meant their team could focus more on driving engagement, analysing performance, and improving audience follow-up - rather than scrambling to host each session live.
