IT’S NOW OR NEVER! Today Is The #19NTC Voting Deadline

Today is the deadline for voting at the 2019 Nonprofit Technology Conference (#19NTC). So if you haven’t done so already, I would be crazy grateful if you took a moment to swing by and vote for one or more of my sessions.

You will need a registered user account to vote but they have got that process down to a science. It takes less than a minute to registrar and it delivers you directly to the session page where you can cast your vote. It’s so easy you might think it’s a mistake.

Just select the “Login/Signup” button in the main menu, fill out a few form fields, and you’re all set.

60 percent of decision making juice comes from individual user votes so don’t think this is some sort of “we value your opinion until it comes time to make the decision” sort of thing. Quite the contrary, your votes have a great deal of impact.

If you aren’t already a full NTEN member, I strongly recommend joining.

And to everyone who has already voted, THANK YOU for taking the time to make your voice heard!
