Well Ignite Phoenix fans, the time has come again! Ignite Phoenix #8 is just over 6 weeks away, but we want you to bring the awesome in the form of presentation ideas. Whatever your passion is, we want to hear about it. If you think lots of people want to listen to you talk about it for five minutes, then you should submit it now. If you think no one wants to listen to you talk about it, then you’re probably wrong and you should definitely submit it! Seriously, if you’re passionate about something, that alone will make other people interested in what you have to say when you’re on stage. The submission window is open until Friday, September 10, so you have a less than two weeks to get that idea sent to us.

Now, enough pep talk. We also have some less abstract reasons to get your submission in sooner rather than later. Remember the totally awesome Ignite Phoenix t-shirts the presenters and volunteers received at Ignite Phoenix #7? Well, we have a few reserves which we’ve kept secured in a top-secret vault located deep beneath Ignite Phoenix HQ, and we’re prepared to give away three of them to some lucky people. To be eligible to receive one of these exclusive shirts, you need to submit a presentation topic by midnight on Friday, September 3. The next day, we’ll randomly choose the names of three submitters who will receive t-shirts. If you’ve already submitted, have no fear; you’re already in the drawing. But if you’ve been putting off submitting, hurry up and you may be one of the three lucky people to be sporting a brand-new Ignite Phoenix t-shirt this fall!
Once again, big thanks to Jenny North of Yeager North Creative Marketing for the phoenix bird design.
