Live events are now reachable through social media. There are a lot of social media pages wherein you can hold a live event of your own. But, for a live event to be successful, you need to moderate it. With the use of online tools and solutions, you can manage to do that easily.

Some available social event management today offers the convenience of creating, promoting, and managing any kind of event. Whether it be a conference, exhibition, festival, gathering or social events, there’s always a solution on social media. However, we will see how Rumble Talk fills in the gaps where those social event managements are missing.

Group Chat for a Successful Event

There are many challenges when you’re working as an event organizer. These include managing successful events that need clear communication, excellent organization skills, and detail-oriented preparation for the operation. What is necessary for attracting and engaging participants to attend the events?

First, you always need clear communication. Second, organization skills are needed to ensure teamwork and cooperation. This lets the event organizer prepare things smoothly and flawlessly. Third, detail-oriented preparation is required from start to finish because event management is a hectic job to do.

All event organizers know that managing events is a daunting task. They are familiar with such hustle and bustle, and all that to understand how to manage a successful event. But with all those, is it the same with creating an event using social media?

It’s time that we take a closer look at social media as our tool for successful event management. How can social media really help us to create a more successful event and gather a wider audience? This is a question we need to answer.

Use of Social Media

Even though social media has been doing its best to ease event management, it still needs improvement in some aspects. What do you think it needs? Social media only works in the pre-event period of the event. Social media event management can only promote the event, manage the registration, and monitor the participants. That’s basically it. When the event is happening, social media is practically idle.

Through the internet, we can use video or audio streaming to broadcast the event. However, streaming has its limits. we can use platforms like Twitter to give an account of the event, but the audience is unable to respond in real time. Therefore, a group chat is needed to ensure a successful event. That’s when we come in. We fill in the blank spots left by either live-streaming technology like Twitch and live-tweets by Twitter.

With our top-of-the-line technology for web chat platform, RumbleTalk provides the best chat for all kinds of live events you manage and organize. We provide event organizers the cutting-edge technology to bring their events to a wider audience.

Why do we need a group chat?

Although social media has become a huge factor in our lives, event management still needs to explore more of the internet to manage a successful event. A chat for live event is what every event organizer needs because we’ve seen shortcomings of live streaming websites and social media in managing live events over the internet. The only feasible solution is to add a group chat. This, together with video streaming and social media, is the killing combination for live events.

Talk shows, seminars, conferences, discussion, what do all of these have in common? All these events have speakers and a Q&A session, where a chat is surely needed. When the event is broadcasted live through video streaming or social media, attending the event is made possible.

Audience reach is through the roof because of the internet because anyone around the world can tune in. In turn, real-time feedback is made possible through a chat room. Moreover, chat for live events provides the convenience for remote viewers to submit a question in the Q&A session. For instance, a moderator can submit questions directly to the speaker, and the speaker can answer the question via chat room or answer the question directly via live stream.

This will let the event’s organizer serve both audiences, namely, those who attend the event in place and those who attend the event remotely. For the audience in the event’s venue, they can have the pleasure of viewing the event live at the location. For the remote audience, the combination of live streaming and group chat will give them a convenient way to interact with the event.

Running Your Group Chat

As discussed, a group chat is a must. We give you two options to run a live event with a chat.

• Group chat – This is the normal chat that we see and use every day. To start a group chat, each member must log-in. After that, they can start chatting as usual!

Just choose group chat on your admin panel. Then, members just need to log-in and they can type any message they want!

Here’s an example of how a group chat would look like. Neat, no?

• Moderated Chat – The Moderated Chat lets you keep the chat safe. How? The admin needs to approve messages before it can be sent out.

To activate the Moderated Chat, just choose moderated chat as your chat type. This is great when you want to delete inappropriate messages before they get sent out.

Here’s an example of how a moderator approves or deletes messages. You see that there are check and cross boxes on the right-hand side of the message box. It’s simple. You just need to click them to approve or delete the message. This minimizes mishaps or negative messages in the chat. You can also avoid inviting harassers and spammers in the chat.

The group chat is in parallel with your event. The great thing with group chat is it’s also available on smartphones! Your audience just needs to open their mobile browser and copy the link. A group chat gives an audience reach that’s undeniable.

FoMO induce some pervasive habit in today’s social life, like constantly checking smartphone or gadgets, or anxiety when they did not receive email or message or chat for a couple of minutes.

How Live Event Chat Helps FoMO Anxiety

Social media, mobile devices and gadgets have pervasively invaded our private life in a way more than we ever foresee or imagine. FoMO is a phenomenon that affects the 18-34 years of age group or known as teen millennials. Young people in those age group are prone to peer-pressure that can lead to low self esteem. It is because young people will look upon other’s approval for their self value, that makes them caught and struggle with FoMO.

Engaging fans is a natural demand from fans clubs and general audiences. But as popular you are, the more complex it becomes to meet your audience. The online arena presents some ways to engage people via the online domain (e.g., Twitter or Facebook).

However, it is interesting that real-time group chatting is becoming popular for live events. We actually find a trend to use real-time communication chat box in addition to twitter and Facebook.

What is even more interesting is that chat rooms are not limited to websites and blogs but often added to Facebook fan/business page. For example, when a rockstar wishes to launch his new album, he can simply create a live event page in Facebook and add a real time chat room to one of the tabs. The chat room is perfect for mass discussion and can help with hosting thousands of chatters simultaneously. Therefore, the idea of a celebrity to enter a chat room is not that far.

The main advantages of using a chat room for events are:
1 – A chat room is an easy way to control the conversation (moderators)
2 – Users can login anonymously, which is often is an important demand from users.
3 – At the end of the event, the chat room can be removed.
4 – Simple, easy and cost effective.
5 – Talk also in private within the group chat with any fan that you like, send images, text, videos and much more.

Over than 20% of RumbleTalk chat rooms are used for events. We found that chat rooms are highly effective tool for engagement in events.

During their live event, Lush chose RumbleTalk to create 4 chat rooms to accompany the event with a live online chat conversation.

The traffic was pretty wild and it was originated in US, Canada, UK, and France.
Chatters were mainly women, as expected
The Lush team set the chat to allow a guest, Twitter, and a Facebook login option. Most chatters choose to login with a Guest profile (i.e., that made them anonymous).

The main chatters traffic ended after 3 hours, but people kept talking in the web chat room for an additional 48 Hours! Talk about crazy!
