• Assign featured content in Attendee Hub:
  • By assigning featured content, you can highlight specific sessions, speakers, and exhibitors within your Attendee Website and Event App.
  • Featured Sessions: Up to three featured sessions will be displayed within your Attendee Website and Event App at a time. If a session has ended, it will no longer appear in the Featured Sessions section.
  • Featured Speakers: If you want to assign featured speakers, you can display up to eight featured speakers within your Event App but it cannot be displayed on the Attendee Website.
  • Featured Exhibitors: You can display up to eight featured exhibitors within your Attendee Website and Event App

• Create custom pages for Attendee Hub:
  • I highly suggest adding custom pages to your Attendee Website and Event App to provide attendees with resources like FAQs, Wi-Fi, and other general information. Custom pages will appear on both the Attendee Website and Event App.
  • Found this great KB article to help you customize your page by adding icons, changing the color scheme, and much more.  
  • You can customize the pages as per brand guidelines and ensure your content is relevant and designed to hold an attendee's attention! 

• How do you ensure to make your content stand out during virtual events?

All great insight and suggestions as usual! When I used to use the old CrowdCompass, attendees really appreciated having an "Attractions" page. Local restaurants, things to do, etc. - for their downtime. I would also try to work with the local chamber of commerce to offer coupons and discounts, and include those as well.

The featured highlights are really a great way to showcase particular topics, vendors, etc. in addition to appealing graphics and images. I also think including engagement features like discussion boards, quick polls, surveys, etc. give attendees the chance to communicate and participate, which is always a plus especially when you can't be in person

We haven't really used AttendeeHub yet, we're trying to get it onboarded now, but with the solutions that we do use we highlight content in a document repository and then we can do little call out boxes on the screen for people to get more info if there's a particular bit of content we're really interested in promoting and we'll have hte emcee of the event highlight that.

I find that having the ability to include venue information/floor plan is always helpful in attendee hub, It reduces the number of times we answer the "where's breakout room XYZ"  question! Also the ability to connect attendees/exhibitors through Appointments is also more effective for both parties.

• How do you ensure to make your content stand out during virtual events? We always operate off of less is more, crisp clean look. Getting the aesthetics of your app is key - making things easy to find will increase engagement. We like to make our tabs informative and includes exactly what they are looking for (i.e Find Your Way - maps, and locations) Adding features with pictures is also a good way to get people to move through the app.
