"Pics or it didn't happen" Every Resident Event needs to be posted on Instagram as a story and/ or post. Residents Events are a leasing tool for residents, prospects, and parents/guarantors. Showcase resident life at your community through your Resident Events, this is a great opportunity for content. When hosting events, be mindful of the location, time, and activity. To keep ALL your residents engaged, give them a range of options for them to attend. For example, If you host an event Monday at 10:00am, a resident who has class at the time cannot come the whole semester. Check with your Manager for your monthly budget and work with your team to prepare your community events. Tips & Tricks
Prior to each month, work with your team to plan Resident Events. Consider Holidays, University 1. Events, University Calendar, and team member's schedules to plan accordingly.
2. Create a monthly Calendar with events, time, and location that can be sent to residents and Parents/ Guarantors in Message Center. Also consider flyering the property and community doors with Event Calendar. In addition be sure to post this on your Instagram story and/or post.
3. The week of event, be active on Instagram story and/or post with event reminders. Send a reminder email with event details. In addition, consider sending out a text message to your community with information.
4. Lastly, consider Direct Messaging to personally invite your residents to attend your events. You can also send your residents the flyer on Instagram via Direct Message.
5. At the Event, take LOTS of pictures. Include as many residents as possible for Social Media. Always ask if you can take a picture and be customer service heavy with residents. 24
