While there’s a lot of room for creativity, most events follow a specific, basic model. A slate of educational programming, a trade show floor featuring everything new in the industry and opportunities to network. Mix in a slew of pre-event marketing emails to tell people about it and you have the standard trade show framework. Fortunately, events are increasingly using technology to break out of the mold and create a unique experience for their attendees, starting with the marketing.
I’m honored and excited to announce that I’ll be the guest moderator on Wednesday, May 2nd’s #expochat. I’m delighted to have the opportunity to lead a discussion on the event industry’s premier Twitterchat. Sponsored by TSNN.com and held every Wednesday at 1pm ET, #expochat brings members of the trade show and event industry together for an hour to collaborate on a wide variety of topics.
This week’s topic will focus on influencer marketing. A once limited tactic, influencer marketing has grown enormously with brands using it to expand their reach to new audiences as well as add credibility and authenticity to their content. We’ll be talking about how this trendy marketing tactic can be applied in the trade show event space to increase brand awareness and grow attendance.
Excited to get in on the action? Preview the chat, “Integrating Influencers Marketing into Event Strategies”, and get tips for participating in a Twitterchat. Plus, prepare for the chat by reading my recent article, “Planners Give Events a Megaphone with Influencer Marketing”, which offers expert insights into influencer marketing in events.
