Hosting a webinar is a great way to engage your audience — but the real magic happens after the event.
That’s where your follow-up strategy can either spark conversations, book demos, or close deals… or just get lost in inboxes with a generic “Thanks for attending!”
With Google Sheets + PostSheet, you can send hyper-personalized, post-webinar emails — fast, automated, and at scale.
Let’s break down exactly how to do it.
🎯 Why Webinar Follow-Up Matters So Much
Most people who attend your webinar won’t convert on the spot — and that’s okay.
The follow-up is your chance to:
✅ Deliver value (slides, replays, bonus links)
✅ Start meaningful conversations
✅ Book meetings or trials
✅ Get feedback
✅ Keep your brand top-of-mind
Personalizing that follow-up can double your response rate.
📋 Step 1: Build a Webinar Attendance Sheet
Whether you use Zoom, Demio, Hopin, Google Meet, or something else — export your attendee data into a Google Sheet.
Here’s a simple format:
| Name | Attended Live | Watched Recording | Company | Job Title | Webinar Name | Replay Link | |
| Jamie Wong | jamie@email.com | Yes | No | Acme Co. | Head of Product | Scaling with AI | link.com/replay-jamie |
| Alex Rivera | alex@email.com | No | Yes | Bolt Studio | Marketing Lead | Scaling with AI | link.com/replay-alex |
Optional columns: Questions asked, Poll answers, CTA clicked, Demo interest, etc.
📝 Step 2: Write Your Follow-Up Template in PostSheet
Use merge tags to customize the experience based on whether they attended, their company, and their role.
Example template:
yaml
Copy
Subject: Great having you at {{Webinar Name}} 🙌
Hi {{Name}},
Thanks so much for signing up for {{Webinar Name}}. {{#Attended Live}}It was great having you there live!{{/Attended Live}}{{^Attended Live}}No worries if you missed it — here’s the recording: {{Replay Link}}{{/Attended Live}}
Since you’re leading {{Job Title}} at {{Company}}, I thought you might find this extra resource helpful too: [Insert relevant link]
Let me know if you’d like to chat about how this applies to your team.
– [Your Name]
One template. Multiple variations. Truly personal.
🚀 Step 3: Launch the Campaign with PostSheet
- Create a new campaign in PostSheet
- Connect your Google Sheet
- Map each tag ({{Name}}, {{Replay Link}}, {{Company}}, etc.)
- Use conditional logic for personalized sections
- Preview every email (PostSheet shows you exactly what’s going out)
- Hit send — or schedule for a few hours after the event ends
Boom. Personalized webinar follow-up, done in minutes.
🔁 Bonus: Set Up Automated Follow-Up Rounds
- Day 1: Replay link + thank you
- Day 3: “Did you get a chance to watch?” reminder
- Day 5: Offer to book a quick chat or demo
Just update your spreadsheet with follow-up stage or date, and run another PostSheet campaign when it’s time.

Whether your goal is education, lead gen, or conversion — follow-up is where it happens.
🧠 Tips for Better Webinar Follow-Up
- Include a clear CTA (reply, book a call, download something)
- Use conditional blocks to change the message based on attendance
- Add UTM parameters to links for tracking in your CRM or analytics
- Keep your spreadsheet clean — filter only active leads for follow-up
- Say something specific about the webinar to show this isn’t a mass blast
✅ Final Thoughts: Don’t Waste a Great Webinar
You already put in the work to run a great event — don’t let that momentum die in a boring “Thanks for attending” email.
With PostSheet, you can follow up faster, smarter, and more personally — all using the data you already have.
