Rotary International’s Pacific Northwest PETS, one of the largest in the world for training nearly 800 Rotary leaders, has been effectively using the Walls.io platform for three years now. This year, we noticed a substantial difference in the time of adoption by our attendees. As soon as we fired the wall up in the ballroom, the posts and photos started pouring in! All of our vendors were so thrilled that they have all signed up already for next year.

TwitchVision was a fun competition that had to do with creative people, great music, and lots of different creators and communities. So I thought it would be a great idea to include a “social wall” section within the show to engage the audience, interact with their posts, and encourage them to support their favourite songs by posting about them and getting featured on the TwitchVision wall.

Social walls allow us to make user-generated content visible on our websites and convey the look and feel of our country. We can motivate users to post content, especially when we’re running campaigns with specific hashtags.The various walls in different languages make it easier for us to customise our content for each region and language and better target people in each country.

We use specific hashtags for our employer branding initiatives, and it’s helpful because the content tagged with these hashtags is aggregated automatically on our career website. This way, potential candidates can see all our employer branding activities on social media.

The social wall allows every fan the chance to get involved and feel they are part of the show. The seamless integration of user-generated content into our events has added a personal touch, allowing fans to share their passion in real-time.

The social wall was a key element of our social media and engagement strategy throughout the conferences, providing an excellent collage of experiences throughout.
