TalkShoe Support Live

Looking back to a subject from two years ago. The show notes then were: Can I just turn up? Laidback, serious, informative or Call In episode - it's your show and you can choose how to run it. However, some prep before showtime can help to smooth things along once that Record Button gets pressed

Why not be different and have an odd show .. No not 'odd' meaning 'strange' altthough you could do that too - but an odd start time. But why would you try that?

Don't let the fear of making mistakes stop you from starting your own call series - basically that's how you learn to get better. One useful method to help s to start with recording your shows beforehand on your PC, edit it and then upload!

Some things to bear in mind when shooting off an email to Support. Including relevant information may help you get the answers you seek that bit more quickly.

For Community calls that are say under 1 hour, covering a tightly focused topic, then having a start, middle and end will work fine. But if your call series episodes generally run as long as two to three hours it might be best if you split the whole up into shorter segments ie. A welcome, our format, a news section, the main topic, a supplementary topic or two and finally a wrap-up segment and goodbyes.

To 'get satisfaction' can we now encourage our users to go, not to 'Get Satisfaction' our older community support page - but to go straight to our new 'Supprt Center' via the 'Help' button - top right of TalkShoe pages.

Did the time change catch you out? Well it caught us out a little bit too this year. Those that moved along with the time change are probably good to go - but for others elsewhere in the world there is a need to do some double checking.

Do HOW ARE you doing same old same old? Mixing things up? Taking a break? Going downhill fast? As we are well into 2017 maybe a time to plan out what you hope to do with your call series in the coming months - before maybe your listenners drift off for Summer.

... and not forgetting the White Rabbit! Yes, we are all Alice in Wonderland todayit being the 1st March - Don't be late ... for a very important date :-)

15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour or 2? Those show length times are just a guide of listeners and do not mean your call will suddenly cut off at that point.
