Leveraging social media[edit]
1. Building an Audience (Using Ping.fm and the Following Tools)[edit]
- http://www.ping.fm
- http://www.facebook.com
- http://www.twitter.com
- http://www.upcoming.com
- http://www.ning.com
Using Ping.fm users will be able to post to multiple social networks simultaneously.
Once you set up ping.fm, create a Facebook Page which is tied to the service as it will appear in News Feeds every time users update the Page’s status. Creating a Facebook Event is also key, as well as having guests and members update their own status.
2.Optimize the event for social media sharing[edit]
With smartphones, users are able to stream key portions of events, keeping in mind that users don’t have to stream everything – just the good stuff. Live services like qik.com make this possible, and, if not, users can always use www.youtube.com. One can also do live-polling with a tool like www.polleverywhere.com.
3. Post-event social media communication[edit]
To ensure that your event leaves a lasting impression, users are able to upload photos to Flickr and post videos on YouTube.
