What better way is there to do this than by asking for their participation to help guide the event? This may sound like the proverbial “easier said than done” advice, but it can be accomplished easily with a text to screen app!<\/p>\n

These applications are great tools to help keep everyone in the audience interested because they can send in questions, comments and even images, which then show up on the large event screens for all to see.<\/p>\n

Presenters can scan through the incoming texts to vet out anything inappropriate and to keep things moving along. Afterward, many, like Mosio, allow for the incoming information to be exported to a spreadsheet for review or answering later.<\/p>\n

10 Benefits of Text to Screen Apps:
\n<\/strong>1 – Increased audience participation
\n2 – No equipment to buy or rent
\n3 – Everyone knows how to text
\n4 – No learning curve for the company
\n5 – Remove the anxiety of verbally asking questions
\n6 – No waiting in line at microphones
\n7 – Everyone can read the questions on the screen
\n8 – Questions are vetted in real-time
\n9 – Brand awareness
\n10 – Call to actions can be included<\/p>\n

Not only are text to screen apps incredibly useful, but they are beneficial to a wide variety of businesses and events:
\n1 – Corporate conferences
\n2 – Churches
\n3 – Town Hall meetings
\n4 – Political rallies
\n5 – Sports arenas
\n6 – Trade shows
\n7 – Corporate training events
\n8 – Restaurants
\n9 – Bars & Nightclubs
\n10 – Coaching seminars<\/p>\n

This list is by no means exhaustive. Texting apps are useful to anyone who wants to stand out from the crowd and make their event a memorable one. Your situation may be entirely different from anything listed, and we would love to hear how you would use the technology!<\/p>\n

Drawbacks to Text to Screen Apps<\/strong>
\nYou may be wondering if there are any drawbacks to these apps. There is one, and that is they require users to have a smartphone to be able to download the application and install it on their iPhone or Android. However, according to an\u00a0Ofcom consumer research study performed in October 2016<\/a>, only 77 percent of users in the United States have smartphones.<\/p>\n

This data shows that 23 percent of users may not be able to interact with you at your event!<\/i><\/p>\n

Is there any way you can increase the interactivity for all of your audience? There is, and the answer is to utilize a service that provides everything a text to screen app does, without requiring users to download an application.<\/p>\n

Utilizing Text to Screen Without an App<\/strong>
\nMosio understands that not all users at your event are going to have a smartphone, and we know it is important to you not to ostracize anyone for their choice of technology. That is why our service is not dependent on an app. The users can interact with your presenters by doing what they do on a daily basis: texting!<\/p>\n

All that is required is that their phone has text messaging (SMS) capabilities – and that is 99 percent of the phones on the market today.<\/p>\n

If you would like to learn how to make your next event interactive for everyone involved, contact Mosio today.<\/p>\n
