Tips for fnConference
  1. Audio: For the best audio experience, mute your mic when you aren't speaking and plug-in headphones to your mobile phone or computer. You'll want to be sure that you don't miss anything from the session and that your fellow members aren't distracted by your background noise.
  2. Connectivity: Be sure to shut down other apps and programs on your device for optimal visual and sound quality.
  3. Participate: Be prepared with a 10-15 second elevator pitch and take down any questions for the guest during the session.
