Then again, the shift to digital poses ahost of distinct obstacles, the most significant of which is a lack of virtualengagement.
In a world where all virtual events can look like the same-old repeat of theprevious one, the following ideas can help you get a better virtual eventengagement from your audience.
1. Make Connections a Game - Gamification is an excellent way toencourage crowd participation and makes the experience more enjoyablefor guests.To add a level of competitiveness and inspiration, consider holding aleaderboard, granting awards or incentives to all those who tally up morepoints, and even awarding digital badges.
2. Add A Digital Photo Booth - Picture booths seem to be a popularfeature for celebrations, so it's only normal that they've adapted to thevirtual event environment. Virtual photo booths can be customized toaccommodate the expectations of any party and any occasion. You cancustomize images and produce entertaining, personalized content toshare on social media. Besides, you can also make a large collage of allthe goofy pictures for your guests to make the event one that theycannot forget.
3. Giveaway a Freebie - Giveaways are a great way to improve attendeeparticipation and can also be an enjoyable perk of a social media event.While it isn't just as easy as giving a prize to every attendee, you canmail some physical incentives to some of them to get them coming backfor more.
