Social chats are one of the most underutilized tools in the modern virtual event planner’s toolkit. But, having a social chat is also one of the biggest payoffs in terms of engaging attendees and helping you plan your event.

When it comes to conferences, meetings, and webinars, it’s not enough to just have great content anymore. Today’s virtual event attendees expect more. Users want to be able to interact with you, your speakers, and other attendees while they’re watching the live stream or during breaks in the webinar. A key way to do this is to incorporate RumbleTalk’s Social Chat feature into your virtual event strategy.

At RumbleTalk, we believe that your Virtual Event shouldn’t only be engaging while it’s live. Moreover, it should give your audience something they can take away and share with their community when it ends as well!

What is a Social Group Chat?

Social Chat is one of the 6 Chat Types that RumbleTalk offers. It is a public group chat where everyone is free to join the conversation. Everyone in the chat can talk to each other. Perfect for exchanging ideas in a community, open discussions in a virtual event, or simply a group chat within your business website where people can hang out.
