What you should think about before you submit:
Ask yourself questions like:
- Why this talk? What makes it a must see for those attending the audience?
- Is this talk related to the subjects the meetup covers?
- Have I proofread the content and done a grammatical review?
- Does this content already exist online?
- Is the topic of the talk directly related to a product or service my company offers? (Hint: If you answered yes, it probably is not the right fit.)
Please note the meetup you are looking to submit to by using the relevant tag (you can tag more than one, if it can be relevant for more than one event.)
Optimizing your talk for one of the meetup groups will improve your chances of being selected based on relevance.
