HONG KONG, Oct. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Over 25 of the biggest global social media specialists and content creators gathered for Social Matters Hong Kong. Over 400 delegates discovered how to create compelling content, stimulate interaction and accelerate brands across social media.

#socialmatters saw over 3,000 posts, with the event's opening post reaching over 800 re-tweets. Total impressions reached over 12 million across the day.

The event focused on three major topics critical to successful digital strategies: content creation and distribution, mobile marketing and measuring the ROI of great digital campaigns.

Among the many highlights included a session from Zach King "The King of Vine."

With over 2 million Vine followers and 1.4 million Instagram followers, Zach cited three questions to ask before creating social content:

  • Curiosity -- does it inspire wonder?
  • Clean -- can everyone watch it?
  • Contagious -- is it worth sharing?

"Emergent new platforms force brands to create large amounts of quality content quickly," said Thomas Crampton, Global Managing Director at Social@Ogilvy. "The right tools can help brands accelerate and improve the quality of content."
