We showed the wall on a big screen on stage after each moderation part, in the break, and during the workshop as well. It was really great because people could always see what was happening on social media. We really liked how easy it was to set up a social wall with Walls.io. We went for the event subscription, so I only did a trial run one day before our event and it was really easy. I just connected our Twitter and Instagram accounts and defined our hashtag #BMWWOLCON in the sources. And that was it — incredibly easy.
The mechanics of the campaign, bringing in social media and our employee’s individual accounts, were very engaging and, judging by the #ownies posted, our people had fun taking part in the campaign. Social media stimulates creativity and is appealing due to ease of use and accessibility. We had overwhelming reactions from some employees who posted well over 100 #ownies with their accounts. We got over 3,500 #ownie posts and are quite satisfied with the results of the campaign, considering this was our first global hashtag campaign.
Working with big companies means that we are not always able to use social networks during an event, having the possibility to use Walls.io’s Direct Post feature helped us use the social wall without being bound by social networks!
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.
Walls.io really cares about customer needs and has been a great partner for us. When we brought up the idea of a social commerce button with the team, they were happy to implement it for us. Now we can not just focus our social wall on customer-generated content but also make sure it links back to our product pages.
We had more than 9,000 page views for our Leader Day social wall. On the broadcast day, #CiscoBeat mentions on social media increased 107% from the previous month’s Cisco Beat.
