> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd consider them:
> 
> **1. Zoom Webinars** - The default for most small businesses, and usually the right one. Everyone already knows how to join, it's the most reliable under bad network conditions, and it's the cheapest way in (Zoom Pro is around $14/mo per host; the Webinars add-on sits on top of that). Pick this if your priority is "run an event that doesn't break" rather than marketing automation. The tradeoff: attendees need the app for the best experience, and the registration/follow-up tooling is basic.
> 
> **2. Demio** - My pick if the webinar *is* the sales funnel. Browser-based (no download for attendees), and the marketing pieces - registration pages, email reminders, in-event CTAs and offers, handouts, polls - are built in rather than bolted on. It also does live, automated, and hybrid sessions in one tool, so you don't need a second product for evergreen. Starter is ~$42/mo for 50 attendees/1 host, but on-demand webinars require the Growth tier at ~$75/mo, which is the gotcha to watch.
> 
> **3. Livestorm** - Best for product demos and SaaS-style teams. Fully browser-based, unlimited team members, and it bills by unique
