Your First Meeting Room
When your account is first setup, a meeting room is also setup for you and you will see it when you first log in to your account: "My Meeting Room"
If you wish to edit the title of this meeting room click on ![]()
To conduct a meeting with PowerPoint slides, a PowerPoint presentation must first be uploaded to your account. If you wish to upload a a PowerPoint file, click on ![]()
However, a PowerPoint presentation is not required and you may conduct a meeting with simply Video, Audio and/or Screen Sharing.
While you can now start an impromptu meeting using the green "Start Meeting" button, you will most likely wish to schedule a meeting for a future date and invite some people to attend, and inviting attendees is our next step.
Invite Attendees
Using InstantPresenter's Invite system will allow you to send out emails to your attendees, complete with date, time, a link to the meeting, and a password if you have one. Additionally, it will include some useful setup information.
Meeting Start Date
Here you will select the date and time of the meeting, along with duration and time zone. Keep in mind that this information will not automatically start the meeting at this time. You will still need to open the meeting when you choose.
Email Options
Enter in the email addresses of your attendees into either the Attendee or Presenter box. Other Presenters will automatically be promoted to Presenter status upon entering the application. Enter a subject for your email message, a body for your email, and any relevant conference calling information.
Sending
After the Invite/Confirmation email is complete, you can choose the "Send Invitation Now" button and your meeting will be scheduled and your invitations will be sent. You also have the option of setting up a registration form and survey form, as well as setting up PayPal options if you wish to monetize your presentation. For more information on how to use these features please see the Schedule Meetings and Send Invites section of our manual.
Start Meeting

When you have concluded your presentation click on the
button in order to close the meeting room. Your attendees will then be directed to any exit URL or survey you have setup.
Application Setup

Next you will be prompted to start the session now or later. Select "Yes" to allow your attendees to join your meeting.
Finally a setup wizard will guide you through the rest of the microphone and webcam setup procedure. Simply follow the instructions, making sure to select the proper microphone and webcam device when prompted.
Once you have completed the wizard you will be setup and ready to broadcast your audio and/or video. If you have uploaded slides you can advance them by using the button controls at the bottom right of the Content Presentation Module.![]()
Moderate Attendees

You can make the Attendee List private if you wish so that the full list is only displayed to Presenters, simply check the "Make Attendee List Private" box at the bottom of the Attendee List.
