With Mentimeter it is possible to re-use a presentation, by creating a new historical session, as many times as you need as a Presenter. This can be used for instances where you would like to present again, gathering time-specific results for the same audience, or presenting to a new audience. To learn how to create a new historical session, for the same presentation, check out this help article on how to reset your results.
By resetting your results, this makes it possible to collect and compare answers from each time the questions are asked, in order to identify trends. If you work in a business setting, the use of trends, for example, can be especially useful when administering a pulse check for employees, to gauge how the results change over time. Be creative and feel free to adapt this handy feature to your own needs!
