Speaking | SXSW Speaker Tips – Good for Any Speaker!

Speaking today at NXNE, two panels back to back from 9-11am. Here are some things I found from SXSW earlier this year. Simple but good to keep in mind, esp. if this is your first rodeo.

My favorite things from this list:

– Stay on topic
– Always respect the audience

The audience is giving you their time to hear about a topic. You can talk about yourself the rest of the day! Perform your knowledge, be yourself.

There is a huge opening party for NXNE Interactive tonight. Imma need to schedule a nap I reckon. Naps are key.

I will be around the conference location Hyatt most the day. Say hi! Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Happy Thursday! Nice to be home 🙂
