What is a private social media wall

A private social wall is a tool that allows you to collect posts, photos, and videos from your audience, no matter if they have social media accounts or not, using the Direct Post feature. It’s a great engagement tool for internal company events and events that have an audience that is not very active on social media or has privacy concerns. Be it leadership events, company Christmas or summer parties, employee appreciation events, graduation ceremonies, or any other kind of internal event your brand plans on organizing.

How to make your social wall private

Create a secret link for accessing your private social wall

To ensure that your event stays private, set your social media wall to “private” in your Walls.io settings. Then, only those with whom you share your private link will be able to view the social wall. It will also not show up in Google search results, making it a perfect social aggregator for private events.

Allow attendees to post directly to your wall using a custom form

You can use our Direct Posts feature to allow attendees to post messages and photos directly to the wall, so your event stays private and engaging at the same time. This internal communications social wall approach worked exceptionally well for S&P Global.

Even if your event isn't confidential, this feature is a great way of inviting absolutely anyone to interact with your social media wall. People who aren’t on social media platforms or that prefer not to post on social media can now encourage participation without compromising their privacy.

How brands use private social walls

BearingPoint Successfully Uses Social Walls for HR & Communications, Events and Marketing

The teams at BearingPoint predominantly use social walls for employee engagement internally but sometimes share the user-generated content collected through these campaigns internally or even externally, for example, to raise awareness for the company’s CSR activities.

We looked for a platform that could gather all of our social media in one place and expected to find something that we could probably plug into a website. When we found Walls.io, we were impressed by the whole solution. It was dramatically cheaper than doing an own-build solution with an agency, and it was considerably more flexible. The whole procurement process happened in 15 minutes before a telephone call, where we just started to search for these sorts of solutions. Walls.io stood out as a leader. And the reason it’s so good is its flexibility.

S&P Global Maintains Privacy at Internal Event With Direct Posts

S&P Global Market Intelligence put a social wall with Direct Posts in place for MI Content Expo, an internal event with around 5,000 attendees. The wall was integrated into a virtual event platform and combined with a photo booth.

While hosting an internal event, it has been critically important that we ensure data privacy and that social media policies are observed and upheld by every attendee. We leveraged Direct Posts on a social media wall in the 6Connex VEP, and voilá: we were able to gather thoughts from our attendees without worrying about any concerns regarding a breach in privacy.
