We are 2/2 for Sold Out Social Media Coaching Events!

Our 2nd social media coaching was another SOLD-OUT knock-out event! Not only were we sold-out, but we were also over capacity and found ourselves creating a waiting list the day before the event. In the e=mc2 office space, we squeezed in 13 participants, 2 guest speakers, and 3 Carmella team members, so yes- the room got a little toasty. Our lunch was catered by the one and only Bella Crusta. They provided us with a variety of focaccia bread sandwiches and crowd-pleasing cookies.

Our class consisted of a melting pot of professions and business owners; CrossFit, pottery, commercial painting, marketing, photography, massage therapy, automobile, and sommelier! It just goes to show how important social media is when it comes to marketing your brand.

Guest Speakers:

We were lucky enough to have not one but two guest speakers share their knowledge at our 2nd session: Do MORE with Video in Social Media.

Steve DunnSteve-BW_headshot
Videographer from Deep Blue Media
Owner of Canmore Brewing Company
Deepbluemedia.ca

A videographer by trade, Steve taught us the basics about creating video for your business’ social media channels. Steve mentioned that a person doesn’t need to own a $3000 camera to create this content, but just your iPhone and its apps. “Everything you want to do, you can do with your phone.” He showed us examples of the short videos he used for the Canmore Brewing Company, and how the video engaged his audience.

 

  1. Don’t Sell
    • Don’t make your video a mini infomercial- that is not what your audience wants
  2. Think Different
    1. Stand out on social media, make people watch, think boomerang or time-lapse.
  3. Technology
    1. Steve showed off some of his nifty tools such as a gimbal, his remote-control video-stabilizer car

  1. Be Prepared
    • Do your research before the event; look up sponsors, research handles, understand the schedule of the event.
  2. Capture (MORE) Content
    • If you think you are capturing enough content… you probably aren’t. Just take as many videos and pictures as possible- you will thank yourself later
  3. Go with the Flow
    • Sometimes events can be crazy, especially if you are helping organize the event. Just go with the flow and do your best at capturing all those precious moments. It may be a good idea to hire someone to capture that content for your special event.

Carmella has trained experienced social media event management and coverage professionals. Carmella is your go-to for event coverage. Our event reporters are also social media managers – from Instagram to Facebook to Twitter, we know all the tips and tricks. Social media is a great way to engage your audience when capturing an event. Create content that gives your audience FOMO (fear of missing out) by missing the event!
