Instagram is huge, there’s no question about that. Instagram is also very social and it’s a great way to engage your friends, customers and others. People really enjoy sharing moments they capture and Instagram also has a pretty nice user engagement level so it’s a very worthwhile use of your time. To date I haven’t seen a ton of usage by companies, however, one group in the GeoTech / CAD/surveying space is doing a nice job with it – enter the Faro 3D Documentaztion Conference Instagram competition. The event is encouraging attendees to post pictures to instagram and tag them with the #Faro3D2013 hashtag and share – given that many, if not most, Instagram users also connect their accounts to Twitter this is a great way to encourage socializing and sharing by event attendees.
The company has a nice contest page on the event website where all the photos can be seen (nice hack) and links to all the related social properties are found.. nice stuff by Faro!
Check out the contest details HERE – oh, and FYI, the 3D Documentation Conference takes place Oct 16-18 in Orlando, FL – FYI, you can follow the group on Twitter @Farro_HQ
