B2B Live Hangs - setting a standing hang - input please

Lounge
1

Hi all,

Based on the feedback from our last (and previous hangs), there is interest in making this a standing ‘thing’, with a set time slot for folks to pop in and meet others, etc.

I think this would be a great idea and work well, however, I think we should be cautious about how often, etc.
I think if we keep it a bit spread out, they will be richer and more rewarding. If we set them too close, it will feel like ‘one more thing’ people should/need to do and might be viewed as a negative and die a sad and lonely death.

Some have suggested weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, or bi-monthly or even quarterly.

Let’s get some input and interest level…
How often should we meet? (*I took off weekly as it seems like a bit much)

  • bi-weekly
  • monthly
  • quarterly

@John_E I agree if we do it weekly it might start to feel like work but if they are spread out we will get more out of it and people who are learning will have a better “update” on their progress…Sunday is a good day could be later 20:00UTC is good but so is 22:00 let’s see what the voters say!

Wouldn’t 2200 fall into the shade of the “thereabouts” umbrella?

I have a writers zoom @ 20:00 which is why I didn’t show. 22:00 works better for me

I will let this run a little bit longer than sum up and start a plan.

Sorry I missed the live hang, I could hear you guys and tried to communicate with you but was unable to see or be seen by you. Had my wife explain zoom to me but was late for the party. I’ll try again next time. I was excited to hang with you rock stars.!
