We’re excited to hear your podcast episode, and share it with our audience. Our goal is to make sure your message is communicated in a meaningful way, so here are some things to expect and prepare for.
Summary
a. You are hosting this podcast episode as if it was an extension of your own podcast, so you alone will be in charge.
b. Be sure to show up on time and unmute your mic and video.
c. Live guests sometimes join, not always, but if they do they are there to learn from you.
d. When finished simply close the zoom meeting and the recording will automatically get sent to us to distribute.
e. If you have questions just email befunbekind@trotlocal.com
Follow the Zoom link emailed to you earlier. Signing on a few minutes early will give you time to unmute your mic and turn your video on. Both are turned off when you enter so just switch them on in the bottom left corner (shown in screenshot below).
Everything is set to record automatically once you log in. When the scheduled time for your talk has arrived and you’ve unmuted your video and mic simply introduce yourself and your topic and start talking. If there are live attendees feel free to engage with them and welcome them as well.
Have around 15 – 20 minutes of content you can share.
You may have live attendees that attend your Talk as we encourage this as a medium for people to connect and learn. If so they may want to engage in discussion or questions. They may also just want to listen. If you notice people joining feel free to acknowledge and welcome them. Let them know if they want to join in to just unmute their mic, type a question in the chat area, or use a Zoom Reaction to raise their hand.
We try to keep these to around 30 minutes or less. It’s alright if you go a little over, but once you notice the 30 minute mark approaching try to start wrapping up. If attendees have joined thank them for joining. Feel free to make a final call out to how people can engage with you moving forward. When finished simply click the End button in the lower right (shown in screenshot below) and the recording will automatically be sent to us. Our team will then process and send it out to our audience.
