It’s five months until SQLSaturday Orlando, have you thought about your speaking plans for October? We’d love to have you come talk to our attendees! We have 50+ slots we need to fill and we try to build a schedule with a wide assortment of topics and skill levels.

Here are my unofficial (because I don’t build the schedule) tips on how to get selected here in Orlando:

• Submit early. Helps us market the event when we can talk about some early selections.
• Submit something you’re passionate about. We appreciate having a few of your presentations to pick from, but we really want the one that has you on fire to talk about! Tell us which one that is and we’ll see if we can work it in.
• Make the title(s) great, but not too cute
• Tell us if you’re a first time speaker (because we like first time speakers)

Did I mention the weather in October is really nice in Orlando?
