Event (Social Media) Marketing

Social Media Marketing

What is event social media marketing?

At first glance, event social media marketing sounds like the simple task of advertising and marketing for events.

Create a few graphics... post about it on the company's social media account... create a groovy hashtag... send out a few emails... create a landing page on the website (or a funnel)... and you would be right! Those are all elements of event marketing.

However, event social media marketing has the added opportunity to showcase the highlights as they are happening, in real time! And there are fabulous ways to get your attendees, volunteers, and team engaged too.

Why would you want social media marketing for your event?

Event social media marketing doesn't end with the start of your event - instead, it should end much, much later.

Events not just about the lessons of a conference, the networking at a local gathering, or insights to workshops. Events are also about the experience your attendees, sponsors, speakers, and vendors have while the event is taking place!

Think about it.

Posting where we are, what we are doing, and who we are doing it with has become incredibly second-nature for the majority of the population. Why not leverage the exposure that's happening at your event, for your event's benefit?

Social media is another great asset to offer to sponsors, vendors, and speakers! By collaborating with everyone, not only are you increasing the awareness and visibility of your event, but your brand. And in turn, you are able to offer a value add to prospective supporters and investors.

Up to 87% of executives emphasize the importance of live events.

33% of businesses spend over 21% of their events budget on sponsorships.

85% of leadership believe live events are crucial for the success of their business.
