How to Give a Successful Ignite Presentation

TIPS - Know what you're going to say, because panic sets in when you realize you only have 15 seconds. If you had planned to wing it, confident that your slides would trigger the necessary information, your brain may or may not cooperate--have a few written notes just in case.

It's a good idea to rehearse. Lots of times. Rehearse using the time constraints. Rehearse on your own. Rehearse with an audience. Rehearse a little every day. Then, when it's showtime, try to relax and enjoy the experience. You'll do just fine. Hope this helps.

Hi, Jason. I have marked "attending." Do I need also to purchase a ticket? Sorry to be a little dense!

Thank you for your help.

Hope

Yes, sorry. The RSVP thing wasn't really an "official" ticket. Sorry for the confusion. There will be seats available on the day of the event, but these are more like reserved seats for Ignite fans :)

Hi, Jason. Thanks so much--do we need then, also, to reserve tickets for any of the other events or just Ignite?

Hi, Jason. I just tried to buy tickets--but they seem to be sold out. Am I correct in that?

There will be more tickets released at 8pm tonight. Thanks!
