  • What are the technical requirements for attending SocialNext?

    To watch and participate in the SocialNext virtual conference, you will need a desktop or laptop computer and you will need to use a recently updated version of the Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox web browser.

    The Safari and Microsoft Edge/Explorer web browsers are not compatible with our virtual conference platform - Hopin.

    The event cannot be viewed reliably on mobile devices or tablets.

    If you use a Mac and using the Big Sur version of MacOS, it is best to connect to the event via an incognito tab in Google Chrome.

  • I'M NOT A PROFESSIONAL SOCIAL MEDIA OR DIGITAL MARKETER. IS SOCIALNEXT STILL RIGHT FOR ME?

    Absolutely -- SocialNext is for anyone using social or digital marketing to do better business. Most of our attendees are professionals who use these tactics as a part of a larger marketing program because they own their own business or work within small departments. All of our speakers are there to teach, not just talk, so you'll receive valuable instruction and have a chance to ask your questions. Plus, SocialNext offers two different sessions for every hour so you can pick which is the best fit for your skill level and/or skill area that needs improvement. And of course, because this is a virtual event, you will have full access to recorded versions of all conference sessions for 30 days following the event. You don't have to worry about missing anything!
