Back in October, we moderated a chat for Engage 365 on how event professionals could utilize new Twitter features and Facebook groups for event promotion and community-building (you can read the archived chat here). Ever since then, I’ve wanted to have a similar discussion with social media and online community rock stars in the events industry about LinkedIn. We’ve seen huge improvements to their platform recently, so why not talk about using those improvements to our benefit?
I’ll be moderating an Engage 365 Twitter chat this Friday, January 28th at 1pm EST about using LinkedIn for events, and you can join the chat via TweetChat here.
I’d like to get your ideas and suggestions first so we can discuss them during the chat. How are you currently (or how would you) use LinkedIn for promotion, community-building and/or networking for an event? Share your ideas here!
