Steal My Tricks: Virtual Meeting Welcome Playlists

I want you to be a superstar!

We are all finding ourselves in virtual meetings these days. Some work entirely remote, while others have a monthly check-in with the larger team.

One of my easiest and most impactful tricks to start a virtual meeting off right is playing music while my guests log in. I wanted to share this resource with you.

Since I present a high energy virtual experience, my personal playlist is filled with upbeat music to get people excited. I find this helps encourage interaction. However, I’ve also linked a few of my other favorite playlists which you can play at the top (or throughout) your meetings to make them stand out.

Oh! One final super important tip for streaming music to your meeting participants. You will want to turn the music WAY down on your end. It always broadcasts louder than it should be. You want a level where people can hear the music, but still be able to comfortably talk over it.

[Each virtual meeting platform has a slightly different way to share music. In Zoom, all you need to do is click the “Share Screen” button on the bottom of the screen, select “Advanced” at the top of the popup window, select “Computer Audio,” and click “Share” in the bottom right corner of the popup window.]
