I saw your [blog post/video/post] on [source] and I think it would be great to have you on the show to share your experience about [topic]. Office Hours is an hour-long live conversation that is streamed to the [Grafana YouTube channel](https://youtube.com/@grafana). It's very casual, and you can also share your screen if you'd like to do a demo (not required). If you'd like to join, I'd love to have you! - [x] If the guest agrees, choose a date for the Office Hours session. Ask them for a photo you can use for promotion, or ask for permission to use their profile pic on social media. - [x] Invite them to the Grafana Office Hours calendar invite (choose "this instance only", not the whole series). Change the invite to include the episode number and their name, ie `Grafana Office Hours 01 with Mitch`. This is to save the date. - [x] Create a thumbnail. - [x] Schedule the broadcast on Streamyard, and select the Grafana YouTube channel as the destination. - [x] In the title, include the instance of Office Hours, i.e. `What's new in Grafana 10? (Grafana Office Hours #01)`. - [x] Add the standard description as per previous Grafana Office Hours shows. Check the video description and add guests' contact details. - [x] Get the Streamyard invite link and put it in the "location" of the calendar invite to the guest. - [x] Get the YouTube link to the show. - [ ] Create an event and announce it on Meetup. - [ ] Schedule a tweet just when the show begins to say "We're live now!" - [ ] Schedule a Slack message on the internal Grafana workspace (in `#general`). - [ ] Schedule a Slack message on the public Grafana Slack workspace (in `#grafana`) - [ ] Add timestamps to the video (at least four). - [ ] Add any links shared to the description of the video. - [ ] Add the video to video playlists that make sense (at the very least, the "Grafana Office Hours" one.) ### Just before the show - Before the show - [ ] How do you pronounce your name? - [ ] Twitter handles - [ ] We will be using the talking points, but we don't have to be strict about it - [x] Does anyone want to share their screen? We can do that now, and I can show you how that works - [ ] We'll be streaming to YouTube. - [ ] You'll be able to see comments, but if you have links, I have to paste it into the private chat - [ ] You can also use the private chat if you need to say something, but you can also just say it out loud - [ ] Afterwards, we'll say goodbye to the stream, but please stay on past that - [ ] Just in case I disconnect... stall for a minute and I'll be right back. ## Repurposing this content Consider reusing the content in other forms: - Blog post - Order the transcript from [Rev](https://rev.com) and post it on the blog, BUT with headings, subheadings, callouts, and summaries to make it more digestible.
