Introducing: Toolsday
Our members want to feel confident that they are using the right tools at the right time. They’ve told us that they want opportunities to learn about new technology in a low-pressure environment where they can ask questions openly.
They asked and we’re delivering - with your support.
Starting February 1, we’re hosting weekly “Toolsday” live sessions where vendors in the IC space can showcase their platforms. You can share anything you want our members to learn: a case study, product demonstration, industry insights, or a really cool new feature you’re offering.
Your session will be hosted live and recorded for future playback within the ICology community. We can’t guarantee how many members will join us live but we can promise high engagement from those who do. What can we say, we’re keeners.
How it Works
For an investment of $1,000 USD you’ll have the virtual floor for 30 minutes. What can you teach, demonstrate, and show off in a way that keeps us on the edges of our rolly chairs? We’re looking for content that is delivered in a fun and interactive way.
Your session needs to check as many boxes as possible:
A targeted, concise presentation with a clear purpose
A real-life example (bonus points if you can have a customer on the call with you!)
Interaction with members
Creative way of delivering information
Tangible value for internal communicators
Diverse presenters/contributors (this is a key initiative for us)
Not-so-Fine Print
Scheduling
Yes, the sessions happen on Tuesdays because we’re clever like that. You can request any week you like, as long as it’s not already filled. (The start time is up to you but we recommend sometime midday so we can hit all North American time zones.)
Member Data
No, we won’t share or sell our member list but you’re strongly encouraged to connect with the folks who join your session afterwards. The best way to do this is by joining ICology but I guess we’re biased that way.
Logistics
We’ll use the ICology Zoom account in meeting format to allow for better interaction. You’ll be given full presenter controls to share your screen, play DJ, however you decide to get creative.
Promotion
You better believe we’ll promote the crap out of your session.
Long Story Short: Our monthly e-message is sent on the first of every month and as long as the timing lines up we’ll include your session in our upcoming events section.
Inside ICology: your event will be listed in our calendar, promoted on our main feed and pinned to our “featured” section for our 125+ members to see
