Audience Engagement

Audience engagement is critical to the success of any event and has become especially critical in the virtual world, with the key to optimal engagement being quality content and engaging presentations. Harnessing and maintaining attendee’s attention with creative content and exciting productions is a motto we have always lived by, yet it can be increasingly difficult to transition this concept to a virtual platform.

The key is to engage your attendee’s often with simple and seamless tools, there are plenty of options out there to enhance your virtual event including networking areas, feedback surveys, polling and Q&A’s to keep your audience engrossed throughout your event.

Analytics

At Eclipse, we see data and analytics as a crucial benefit of virtual events because as you know collecting and measuring feedback from your attendee’s can be a challenge during in-person events due to lack of interest in participating or using tools which track their attendance and engagement.

Viewer numbers, viewing time, engagement scores, sponsor interactions – this barely scratches the surface of the analytics at your fingertips when holding a virtual event. When utilised effectively, the further marketing and engagement opportunities can far surpass that of a previously live, in-person event.
