We are going to do another ask the Experts V2.0 The plan is do do it on April 8 @7:00 central. I am currently looking in to better software to do this where we can have 5-10 experts speaking and and answering questions rather than typing out etc. The attendee's can all type in questions. That will allow us to cover much more ground

I am looking at doing another ask the experts with a better software where we can have 5-10 experts that can answer live on mic and have all the people attending type in their questions. Similar to what Glen did with Traqmate and Fuse.

Questions for you guys...
What would you like us to cover?
Who would you like to see on the expert panel?

Suggestions and ideas are what makes these things beneficial for all. None of mind donating the time, the thanks we we get from donating the time is that you guys learn something and feel it was worth wasting 90 minutes of your free time.


Thanks
Jim

Eric Foss if you can get him.  He has some great advice for the higher skill level drivers.  

Lamb, Drago, Berry, Steyn on what it takes to prep mentally to win.  Love to have some of the Florida boys speak on team work and what it takes to learn new tracks as they travel.  

Maybe a separate ask the expert on mechanical issues, Fowler, Wheeler, Meathead, Haldeman and Hedrick should cover most of the country and give people someone local to relate to.

I always enjoy this, lots of good info but with the newbie thread...

Any interested in a expert forum where only the experts can/should reply, then you don't need to wait for the next chat to come to town ??

I think an expert only chat would be awesome, as long as I could watch.

I'm guessing no.  I had a calendar alarm go off reminding me of it, but it hasn't been mentioned recently, so I'm guessing it's not tonight.

I'd like to thank everyone for a great one. One of the best one's in a long time. :)

 

I'm sure a transcripts will be posted shortly.

Sorry, Time got away from me. I have to test some software etc that is better than what we have and do a practice run. If anyone uses something regularly that would allow 3-5 people to be live and answer questions on mic while the rest type in questions let me know. A volunteer would be even better. I guess there are many programs that will do this. We used the one on traqmate webinar that went well. We need to be able to cover the questions faster and more efficiently and record the session

You may want to try something like gotomeeting... You can use mics for discussion and the moderator can read questions that the participants typed in.  You can also use webcams or show slides.

Fuze it what I used for the last AiM Sports Data webinar 2 and what I believe TM has used in the past.  I think it will work well for what you are trying to do and it seems to be priced fairly. Maybe Peter Krause or myself can 'host' the meeting with our accounts if that works best.  Let me know.  https://www.fuze.com/

That was my first thought as well.  I've used GoToMeeting frequently for that use.

Jim,

Multiple software packages. I've used many. Note that you need the webinar management features though (audience control) and multiple presenter capability. Consider GoToMeeting Webinar package. You can do a free sign up for 30 days....

The Fuse package worked well.
