As event and meeting planners continue to play in the virtual event sandbox, consider event technology and solutions company MeetingPlay the treasure chest buried just below the surface. Of special note on MeetingPlay’s seemingly endless list of offerings is its gamification feature that truly elevates virtual events and has attendees forgetting they’re sitting in front of a computer screen and not actually front-row at a live education session.
In fact, six benefits of incorporating MeetingPlay’s gamification features into your next virtual event include...
- Keeps attendees engaged and energy levels high
- Adds value to the event through participation
- Encourages interaction with sponsors and exhibitors
- Motivates attendees to consume more content
- Allows colleagues to network and connect
- Gets attendees to create more buzz about your event
The best part? MeetingPlay brings to the table multiple options for gamification, ensuring you move forward with the best kind personalized to your virtual event. Whether that’s bingo, trivia (individually or through a team), a scavenger hunt through which attendees earn points by finding and clicking on an image that’s randomly dispersed on pages throughout the platform, an immersive environment (think: a Halloween Town that offers a trick-or-treat game for points), or a standard system of earning points for completing engagement-forward activities, MeetingPlay acts as a one-stop-shop for interactive virtual event elements. Some of the specific gamification activities offered include attendees earning points for completing their virtual profile, posting comments, asking a question, attending a session, visiting a networking room, clicking on an exhibitor ad, completing a quiz or poll, and so much more.
Regardless of which option is selected, event organizers will quickly notice that attendees are more involved, engaged, and excited about their virtual event experience. However, it’s not a one-size-fits-all situation; it’s important to choose the proper gamification for your audience. To use MeetingPlay’s offerings to their full advantage, event and meeting planners should closely consider what kind of things will motivate their attendees. Are you hosting a beauty product launch? Consider awarding the attendee with the highest number of points a special sample of the product itself. Holding an internal team-building event? Treat the top points-earning employee to an incentive-based goodie bag. The sky is truly the limit when it comes to customizing MeetingPlay’s gamification features to fit your event’s needs.
