Can you start a Zoom webinar early?
That’s right. You will be able to access your webinar directly after you schedule it, which means you can start your webinar whenever you are able to make the time convenient for you. In order to conduct a practice run through following an early start to a webinar (whether deliberately or by accident) will not affect your schedule, or the invitation you will receive in any way.
