Members of my charity have suggested I promote the direct link to our weekly Hang Out.

Members of my charity have suggested I promote the direct link to our weekly Hang Out. Do I have to create an event first or just go directly to schedule a hang out and promote the link generated from the hang out scheduling?

  1. Terrific Tonya Heathco You can do either/both. It depends on what type of promotion you do, post on a blog, website, in a community, newsletter, etc. I've done both and don't notice a big difference in response - but some sort of graphic helps :)

  2. I keep ending up with 2 different events pages for same HOA. Why?

  3. Sally Sue Ember Exactly how are you setting up the events?
    Are you starting them on the Google + Side and starting a SHOAE (Scheduled Hangout On Air Event)
    Are youTube side and starting a YouTube Live Event?

    Details of the step by step process you are using can help us help you.

    "I start on G+ and create an Event for the SHOA to start "later" and provide the date and starting time/duration."

    There is no need to create an event if you are using the SHOAE to schedule your HOA..

    Check out this post by Ronnie Bincer . I'm sure it will clear up any confusion between the SHOAE and the traditional method (Create event, find YouTube Link, paste into Event, etc). SHOAE is MUCH easier.
