Some people just don’t want to post a photo from a trade show on their social media accounts. But they were fine with posting it directly to the wall this time and enjoyed that they could see the picture appearing on the wall while they were standing there. Overall, the interaction with the wall was the biggest we’ve seen since we started using social walls.
Running is very emotional. This is why we have been using Walls.io social walls for years. It’s easy to get runners to post their experiences from races and training sessions on social media and share these moments with others. This integration of UGC creates a closer connection between the runners, us and our race.
The more we use the wall, year after year, the more it becomes a staple of our ceremony. I just want to continue to show how much engagement we’re getting and all the fun ways it can involve parents, families, and students. And it really gets people excited to see themselves up on the screen.
We were delighted with the use of Walls.io at our OECD Forum this year; displayed on the wall of the conference centre, it animated the space and encouraged participants to engage on social media.
We used the social wall on our recurring virtual conference to increase attendee engagement, both inside and outside the event platform. It encouraged our attendees to post on social media, which is a great way to show social proof and encourage more people to register. The cherry on the cake was the integration with our long-time partner SnapBar, a virtual photo booth provider. It made our event feel more human and reminded our audience that there’s a real person behind each profile. Walls.io is a great tool for creating a sense of community and belonging!
TEDx is all about ideas and the conversations that will spark from them. The social wall helps accelerate these conversations as they’re accompanying the talks in real-time, but it also serves as an archive for audience reactions after the event.
