I got a public product demo in 2 days, any tips?

Hey there hackers 👋

Some context,
I have been building Noggin for a while now, and I have a big live demo in two days.

It's the first one for me. What advice would you give me?

    Just relax and remember that you are talking to people just like you.

    Don't idolize them and that will help you stress less.

    Practice the demo, record yourself, and re-watch it to see if you are making any mistakes.

    You don't need to show all of the features, just the key ones. Think of the audience and what's important of them.

    Think of the follow up questions, and your answers.

    Finally, don't be too strict on yourself - if you have a good product, you are honest and you know everything about your product it will be okay.

    Also, Steli Efti from Close has a pretty good e-book on giving demos and if you have time you might wanna take a look at that. I found it somewhere on this link:

    Good luck!

      The demo went well. Kickstarted my sales as well. 🚀
