Each event is a prefect marketing for the next event, the better the current event, the more attendees for next event, and videos and photos play important role. When resources are available invest on event videos. Three type of videos can be created:

  1. Highlight video: This is a quick summary of what happened in the event. View example here
  2. Key moments:  Create short clips from very key moments from the event, mainly from the talk session. View example here
  3. Full event chat/panel:  Edit the fireside chat/panel video and upload to Startup Grind local youtube channel. Post the link to social media pages, View example here

Posting Sequence: If you post the photos and videos of your event in a sequence on social media, you will ensure enormous engagement. A suggested sequence is as follows:

  1. Upload photos: One or two days after event.
  2. Upload the highlight video: One or two days after photos.
  3. Upload key moments video: One or two days after highlight video. 
  4. Upload the the full chat/panel video: Finally one or two days after the key moment video, upload the full video to Startup Grind Youtube Channel and post the link to social media.
