Try Walls.io social walls for free

I strongly feel that cities will not communicate correctly until they have a Walls.io-type experience. And I’m not going to feel good until all these other cities have a version of this. They’re doing their cities a disservice by not creating this type of platform. And using Walls.io could easily be one of the most cost-effective ways of promoting information locally.

The wall was a distinct point of attraction for our event audiences — partners, ministries, and state officials. It was dynamic and helped our event participants engage with the proceedings of the day and what was being disseminated on our social media channels.

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.

Our goal was to increase real-time engagement with the 17,000+ people in attendance at GearFest. The social wall was a huge success. People seemed to really enjoy it and watched it frequently to see their posts being displayed. It definitely added to the excitement and made people more engaged during the day. We’re hoping that it will help spark interest for future events as well.

Using Walls.io removes the complexities of aggregating posts from various social channels so we could hit the ground running with our campaign. Instead of pulling in posts from various sources, we were able to focus on the UX of our landing page and strategy for this year-long campaign. Walls.io has a robust API that we were quickly able to hook into and pull our collection of posts into a custom landing page. Walls.io also has fantastic customer/developer support between their documentation and super-responsive live chat agents.

Social media helps us raise excitement for our events and to engage students and community members in a positive way. We display our Walls.io social media wall at SUNY’s Got Your Back assembly events and conferences. Students and community members post photos and messages which are then rotated on the screens. This helps our attendees engage individually and collectively with the program in real-time.
