What is a Twitter Party?

• A short, fast-paced conversation around a pre-determined

topic using the twitter platform.

• The party often begins with a question from a facilitator. From

there, users post a frenzy of comments and responses using

#hashtags (or keywords) to connect all content within the

conversation.

• During the parties, brand sponsors provide tips, techniques,

expert advice, and information on party topics

• These parties are entertaining, informative and interactive for

both the guests and the host.

What is the purpose of a Twitter Party? • Generate buzz around the ShesConnected Conference

• Increase web traffic and number of ‘followers’/ ‘likes’

• Get feedback from real people in real time

• INCREASE SPONSOR VISIBILITY
