5 Ways to Integrate iMeet Into Your Next PR Strategy

5 Ways to Integrate iMeet Into Your Next PR Strategy

After talking about how iMeet is shifting the way brands think about community engagement, I immediately thought of several ways PR professionals could use the service to get a greater return on their media outreach and social connections.

Here are five:

1. Targeted press announcements

Because of the 15-person per room limit, iMeet would be a great way to have a mini press conference if you ever plan on releasing information to select media outlets before your news is made public.

2. Blogger/journo meet ups

Invite bloggers and journos that aren’t local to your business/brand to a virtual meet up.

3. Customer service/FAQ

You can leave your iMeet room open in your browser all day, so setting up a team of people to respond to consumer or journo questions about your client’s product or service seems like a no-brainer.

4. Roundtable discussions

In addition to doing a monthly chat on Twitter, maybe your client-CEO can sign on for a one hour roundtable discussion about the brand or an industry trend. Invite other influencers or industry leaders and you’ve got yourself a good time.

5. Celebrity contests

I wouldn’t be surprised to see digitally savvy celebs like Shaquille O’Neal, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian, Will I. Am, or Justin Beiber reward their most loyal fans with an intimate virtual video chat.
