Background
In these uncertain times and the recent restrictions to support social distancing, we have had numerous requests of how our EngagementHQ digital tools can be used to replace or mimic face-to-face engagement events.
Whilst many are familiar with how you can use our 8 digital engagement tools, there are many ways these tools can be used to support and increase online engagement, or to be used to host a 'digital event'.
This digital event/webinar is hosted by Anna Kelderman and Max Hardy.
We hope to showcase how easy this is to do, and perhaps you might consider this approach for an upcoming engagement.
Feature Tool
Led by Anna and Max, this webinar event (via Zoom) will focus on SMS, and how it can be integrated with our 'Quickpoll' and 'Guestbook' tools.
Experience firsthand what this looks like as a participant, and then join our small group discussions to explore this approach in more detail.
To get the full experience of this webinar, we will need your mobile phone number on registration. This will allow us to send you messages and questions to participate.

Thank you! Do you mind to send me the link to connect? So sorry! I can't find the email.
Thank you. I will look forward to the recording as on another webinar
To facilitate consultations with regional communities with unstable internet.
SMS would be great, but MMS may be even better. Imagine people submitting images via telephone
...okay I have a brilliant idea! What about free coffee for just about everyone.
SMS will work really well to inform the community about upcoming projects and to close the loop on concluded consultations.
SMS will work really well to inform the community about engagement outcomes once a project ends and moves into the next phase.
I think SMS could be really good for understanding community feelings as a check in point for a project. Ie How do they feel about the draft XYZ infrastructure plan?
To gather quick feedback for an event or other community activity where phone numbers were collected.
I like the idea that it can be used to start off an engagement process. Gather high level feedback about a topic or issue and then use other tools (both offline and online) to continue the conversation.
I can see that SMS will be really helpful from a promotions perspective, to ensure you're targeting relevant stakeholders, sorted by demographics, to engage.
Check in on the health and wellbeing of the community during Covid-19, asking how they are and if they need support in anyway
It could be used to reach parts of the community that may have bad or no internet available
