Outcome

>=50% attendee activation rate AND >10pp activation lift vs non-attendees

  • Show rate
  • Attendee activation rate
  • Activation lift vs control

Instructions

  1. Run the webinar-pipeline drill to plan a single pilot webinar focused on your product's activation workflow. Choose a workshop format (30-45 min) where attendees follow along in their own accounts.

  2. Create a Cal.com event type for registration. Build a simple registration page collecting name, email, company, and biggest onboarding challenge. Track webinar_page_viewed and webinar_registered events in PostHog.

  3. Query Attio for users who signed up in the last 14 days and have NOT activated. Split into invite group (30-50 users) and control group (30-50 users). Log group assignment as a PostHog person property.

  4. Send invitation via Loops. Subject: outcome-focused, not format-focused. Send 2 reminders: 2 days before and 1 hour before.

  5. Human action required: deliver the webinar live. Walk through the activation workflow step-by-step. Pause every 3-5 minutes for attendee check-ins. Troubleshoot live. Reserve 15 min for Q&A.

  6. Export attendee list. Tag each registrant in Attio: attended, no_show, or asked_question. Log PostHog events: webinar_attended, webinar_question_asked.

  7. Send follow-up within 24 hours: recording + next step to attendees, recording + 'sorry we missed you' to no-shows.

  8. After 7 days, pull activation data from PostHog: attendee activation rate, control activation rate, registration rate, show rate.

  9. Run the threshold-engine drill. Pass: >=50% attendee activation AND >10pp lift vs control. If pass, proceed to Baseline.

  10. Document Q&A friction points and share with product team regardless of pass/fail.
