Are you having a hard time connecting with your remote audiences? Perhaps distractions come in and you see your participants slowly dissociating? Can you feel the lack of physical cues in online forums which usually lead to misunderstandings?

Yes, we know, virtual communication is not without shortcomings. Now that we’re living in the digital world, it can be tricky to create real connections. We can easily get information online, but it’s very hard to have an emotional engagement.

So, RumbleTalk has thoughtfully designed a quality live chat plugin to make your next virtual meeting fun and more interactive. Once you’ve maximized the potential of having a live chat feature on your platform, you’ll realize, remote audiences aren’t so bad after all.

Here are 5 live chat features to instantly turn your virtual gatherings from dull to dynamic.

Make your remote audiences a part of the conversation with polls

Polls provide a streamlined audience interaction in real-time. It allows you to host interactive online events, classes, or conferences with live audience feedback.

Alongside encouraging users to participate and give their feedback about a topic, you can also help them easily remember the topic by personalizing the look of your poll based on the theme. It can also be as simple as giving a star rating or asking multiple questions. With that, it’s best to use the poll feature every 15 minutes or so to actively keep your participants engaged.

Create a two-way communication with Q&A

Another tool that will make your audience feel like they are a part of the conversation. Question and answer sessions are more useful in hybrid meetings and virtual events as everyone can be involved. By soliciting their questions, comments, and feedback, they will start to feel more valued and keep them focused as you address their inquiries in real-time.

Here’s a step-by-step guide for organizing a Q&A live session.

Send more information with Multimedia Sharing

Being able to collaborate and work together on anything from anywhere around the world is so empowering. Make your modern workplace experience even more productive with the ability to share any file in your group chat. We’ve got you covered whether it is a word file, pdf, image, video, voice recording, a link, or more. Just follow these simple steps on how to use Rumbletalk’s file-sharing tools. Now, you can increase productivity and keep your audiences on the same page at all times. 

Chat privately using Expert’s Chat Type

The Expert’s Chat is designed for a private one-on-one conversation with an advisor. This is widely used by advisors and consultants, or during job fairs and interviews. Here’s an example of the experts’ chat when the admin is logged in.

When using this tool, only the admin sees the active users and will be able to hold simultaneous private chats with them. While the users won’t see other participants nor start a private conversation with anyone. The admin can also chat face-to-face with a user using the live video feature.

If you’re at an online event, there are many ways to connect with other people. You can ask questions and get answers, or you can just introduce yourself and hope for the best.

But what if there was another option? What if we could make it so that you could connect with people across the world who would love to hear from someone like you? With virtual ice breakers, that’s exactly what happens!

Virtual ice breakers are a great way to kick off an event.

It’s a great way to get people talking about things other than themselves and the event, which is important because most people don’t know what they want or need in life until they ask for it.

Virtual ice breakers are also fun! There are so many ways you can use them: Have everyone pick a topic from this list, then run through a few prompts/questions like “What do you wish someone would tell them?” or “What’s one thing that’s been holding you back from success?” The possibilities are endless!

The introduction made fun and engaging

Icebreakers are a fun and engaging way to introduce yourself and break the initial awkwardness at any event. These interactive activities or games are designed to encourage conversation, build connections, and create a friendly atmosphere.

Whether it’s a professional networking event, team building session, or social gathering, icebreakers help participants feel more comfortable, establish common ground, and foster a sense of community. By encouraging interaction and opening up opportunities for shared experiences, icebreakers set the stage for meaningful connections and a more enjoyable event overall.

Nowadays, chat platforms like RumbleTalk have features that you can use to engage your event audience. For instance, chat polls are a great way to start ice breakers. Admins can send out questions and let the audience answer by voting. It’s that easy!

What if we could make it so that you could connect with people across the world?

That’s exactly what virtual icebreakers are all about, and it’s a pretty awesome idea. Here’s how you can set up a virtual ice breaker:

• Send an email to your mailing list. This way, your audience will know when your next event comes up!
• When you announce where your next event will be held, announce it also on social media pages. You can even start sending out messages to your community chat room.
• Once it’s the online event time, ask around until anyone starts talking about themselves or gets stuck asking questions of others who might know more than them about certain topics/topics–this could lead to some interesting conversations later on down the road.

Here are some tips for setting up a successful virtual ice breaker.

• Be prepared for a variety of questions. This is the most important thing you can do to make sure that your event goes well and everyone is happy with it. If you have done all the right things, then it should be easy to keep track of what people are asking and answer them quickly without missing anything important or getting confused by too many details at once (which can happen easily with virtual ice breakers). Remember that although this is an informal activity, people are still coming from different backgrounds so it’s important not only that they feel comfortable but also like they’ve been heard!
• Make sure your streaming platform works well enough for everyone attending to hear clearly during their turn to speak up. Also, make sure there aren’t any background noises interfering with anyone else talking so please use headphones if possible instead. This helps keep everything quiet while still allowing us all opportunities to shine through.

With the right virtual ice breaker, you can make the first impression that lasts forever!

Virtual ice breakers are a great way to start an event. They allow you to connect with people across the world, and they’re also fun!

You can use virtual ice breakers to make the first impression that lasts forever by:

• Joining a group where you know other members well – like a community chat room
• Going on social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter before getting together in person

Ice breakers can make any virtual event interactive

With a little planning and creativity, you can turn any virtual event into a fun and memorable one. Remember that the virtual ice breakers we covered above are just the tip of the iceberg! Try mixing up your event with some other activities like polls, games, or even webinars. There’s no shortage of ways to make an impactful first impression at any type of party or networking event—just make sure it’s one that lasts!

Don’t throw in the towel just yet when it comes to online event live chat. There are plenty of tactics you can use to make them as inclusive and remote-friendly as possible! So, don’t worry even when your team members or clients are distributed across different countries. With RumbleTalk, having remote meetings and events that make participants feel included and ensure valuable ideas get discussed are now easier than ever.

Aside from supporting multiple languages, we’ve rounded up four great ways to host more inclusive and remote-friendly meetings with a live chat. Check out our list of tricks below to learn how to streamline meetings and make sure all your attendees are feeling heard throughout the process.

Multiple breakout rooms or event booths

If you’re hosting a particularly large online event, consider adding a few virtual event booths where clients can meet fellow participants, and vendors. Everyone can mention a user in the live chat, start a one-on-one conversation, and send an audio or video message. This keeps everyone involved at all times, no matter their location or device.

Breakout rooms are great, but they can be too noisy when they’re packed. Adding a moderator can save you the headache. In a Moderated Chat, you can create an open live chat room where you can hold a question and answer portion. This way, your booth vendors would be able to answer inquiries and questions related to the product or services they offer.

Furthermore, the moderator will be able to keep the chat organized by filtering the chat before it goes public. The moderator can also mute participants, ban spam users, and export attendee lists.

Multimedia sharing and YouTube playback

Let’s make your online events more accessible. We made sure that participants can share multimedia content—like documents, photos, videos, and audio files—on the fly. Conveniently share anything just by clicking on the paperclip button at the bottom left side of your group chat. With this, you can make more effective presentations that lead to conversions.

Aside from that, anyone can also share a YouTube video directly into the chat. For instance, your vendors would like to show a video of a product demo. Just copy and paste the link to the chat, and your viewers will be able to play it instantly. No need to transfer to another window. This saves a whole lot of time for those who want to check out other vendors, too.

Customized live chat room design

There’s still a way to provide your audience with an experience that is similar to attending a physical event. Not only does this tactic help them feel more at home, but it also increases their overall engagement. After all, nothing is worse than being at an online seminar that feels exactly like attending a standard webinar.

Add visual value to your clients’ experience by personalizing the design of your chat rooms. From the background, fonts, sounds, and shape, you can curate the overall design of your live chat any way you want.

For beginners, you can choose from our pre-made themes. For a more personalized look, you can maximize the CSS capabilities to change the overall appeal of your chat. If you need a guide on how to design your chat rooms, click here.
