Twitter #AskMentor Chats
How does it work?
Make sure you are on twitter at the designated times. Tweet general questions with the #AskMentor hashtag, and our mentors will answer those questions by either replying to you or quote-tweeting you. They will also include the #AskMentor hashtag.
Can I ask a question to a specific mentor?
Yes, just make sure to @ that mentor and include the #AskMentor hashtag.
How do I follow the chat?
On twitter: type “#AskMentor” in the search bar and make sure to click on “Latest.”
On tweetdeck: add a column for “#AskMentor”
Video Chats
How does it work?
At or a couple minutes before the scheduled start, @PitchWars will stream to Sarah’s YouTube channel. We will also tweet out the direct link. Watching directly on YouTube will give the best results, but you can watch the video embedded on twitter.
How do I ask questions?
The best way to ask questions is on the YouTube livestream. Those questions will be seen by the host in real time. If you absolutely can’t do that, tweet questions to @PitchWars and our Twitter Captain will try to pass those along to the mentors participating in the video chat.
Do I have to be on twitter to participate?
Absolutely not. Simply go to Sarah’s YouTube channel at the designated time.
Can I view video chats I wasn’t able to catch live?
Yes! There is a YouTube playlist where all mentor video chats will be collected.
