Was it successful?
Our reach on Facebook: 2012 vs 2013
Number of engaged users: 2012 vs 2013
There were lots of
moving parts to this
beast.
How did we make it
happen?
We kept the timeframe
tight for each stage.
100% LIVE.
Live voting.
Live streaming.
Live internetting.
We needed to do a
dry run, or five.
Cool. But, did we learn
anything?
Learnings for Account
Services:

•

Lots of hours are needed to produce and execute. Approximately
400 were logged in Harvest
(400 x $$ = $$$$).

•

When livestreaming at the park, we had four Rethinkers on the
ground, one on deck back at the office and the dev team.

•

Be sure to set the need to be flexible expectation with the
client.
