Hi Everybody, Thank you to all of you who have so generously offered to help me run through a practice hangout this evening at 8 p.m. Eastern. I opened an account with Business Hangouts and I initiated the steps to run a hangout. Here is the registration link for the hangout: http://goo.gl/GZmMb9
And below is the meeting link: https://business-hangouts.com/join.php?m=MTY5NTR8MzQ5MTk=

Please direct me to how I can send the proper links to you individually.

  1. no need to set up individual links - it may be less confusing to folks if you only list the registration link here.
    I wish I could join, but I will be gone this evening. :(

  2. I did click the registration link and Business Hangouts automatically sends me a link to get into the event - just have to be sure to check email for the link.

  3. Heather Kraafter Thank you so much for this insight. I'll review the video again to figure out what needs to be changed.

  4. you set it up great as much as I can tell.
    One thing of note, if you want people to be able to sit in viewers area (I call it the waiting room) before you are live, and be able to leave comments (I like to think of it as the audience milling before the show begins) then you may want to change your set up to be OPEN NOW or even 30 MINUTES BEFORE.  That is found on the same set up page where you could change the date and time.

    Just a suggestion, not a requirement.

  5. Andrea Amador The registration worked as it should. I agree with Heather Kraafter about opening the event so people can enter early as visitors and leave questions and comments. It adds to the "engagement factor".

  7. Sorry, i am late and missing something. That link took me to start my own Hangout Video Call. Is the Registration in the User2User community? Didn't check there.

  8. Russ Worthington There were multiple problems both as a group and as individuals so we finally quit trying and started an abbreviated session but didn't post a link- sorry.
