๐ง๐ง๐ง Basic Introduction
๐ธ Say loudly: Welcome to [P1] everyone! My name is ____, and I'll be your host.
๐ธSay: If you're looking for an introduction today to join us, hang in there.
๐ธSay: Today we are gonna share lessons learned from past projects and answer questions from the whole community! Let's chat! But first! I know we're going to be holding a lot of these contests in the future, so rather than rushing to compete every single time, we want to create spaces where people can mentor each other on success. You could be stingy with your time and say you're only going to do stuff that benefits you and your team, but you'll grow less if you do it that way.
