Each day, tennis fans all over Germany are posting a ton of social media content related to the sport. With Walls.io we found the perfect partner to power our hashtag campaign #LebeDeinTennis on all our social media channels.

Saalbach is using Walls.io both for special events like ski races as well as a more permanent touristic social media hub. Prominently embedded on our website, the User-Generated Content collected in our widget provides an authentic view of our region in real time.

We wanted to make the social media buzz around the DMEXCO a bit more tangible and visible to visitors. So we decided to incorporate two social walls into the digital signage screens in the middle of the DMEXCO Boulevard.

The mechanics of the campaign, bringing in social media and our employee’s individual accounts, were very engaging and, judging by the #ownies posted, our people had fun taking part in the campaign. Social media stimulates creativity and is appealing due to ease of use and accessibility. We had overwhelming reactions from some employees who posted well over 100 #ownies with their accounts. We got over 3,500 #ownie posts and are quite satisfied with the results of the campaign, considering this was our first global hashtag campaign.

The audience reaction was overwhelmingly positive. Attendees enjoyed seeing their posts featured on the big screen, which created a sense of inclusion and excitement. It became a talking point during the conference, with many attendees actively seeking to have their content displayed.

Some people just don’t want to post a photo from a trade show on their social media accounts. But they were fine with posting it directly to the wall this time and enjoyed that they could see the picture appearing on the wall while they were standing there. Overall, the interaction with the wall was the biggest we’ve seen since we started using social walls.
