				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is the result of one of the best chefs in the world, plus one of the greatest rappers of today? The result is &#8230; Frings!.</p>
<p>Susur Lee’s IS the chef and owner and Drake is a keen partner.Frings has become one of the most talked about and respected restaurants in Toronto.The menu may be regarded as a mixture of Europe, United States and a major influence from Asia, so it suit all tastes.</p>
<p>Some people say that the Frings name comes from a sauce made of ketchup and mayo. Now according to the restaurant staff, Frings is a state of mind, whatever the meaning is get a reservation there as it is not easy but worth it.<br />
At the sound of classic R&amp;B, enjoy it drinking drinks like the mojito coconut made ??by Sailor Jerry&#8217;s spiced rum , Malibu coconut rum, coconut milk , lime juice and mint. Let’s talk about food, the dishes are incredibly elaborate as Sweet and Sour Meatballs, topped with parmesan and bread crumbs, delicious!!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A cherished Toronto heritage building that has been standing since 1889 has received a full renovation. The Great Hall located at the corner of Queen St. W. and Dovercourt St. was founded as one of Toronto’s first West End YMCA.  Rich in history, The Great Hall for over 125 years has hosted some of the most acclaimed events in the city. After being completely restored the summer of 2016, it is now ready to open its doors to all sizes and shapes of events.</p>
<p>Boasting over 20,000 sq. ft. of flexible space across four distinctive venues, The Great Hall is able to accommodate any size of event. These four venues can be combined or rented separately. Able to provide seating as intimate at 10 people up to 1,200 people. The four separate halls include: The Main Hall, Longboat Hall, Conversation Room and Drawing Room.</p>
<p><b>The Main Hall</b></p>

It also includes decor of large arched windows, a stage, 30 ft. ceilings and more. Capacity can fit up to 480 people standing and is flexible for seating and table arrangements. The Main Hall with the new renovations, has been installed with a state-of-the-art audio/ visual system.</p>
<p><b>Conversation Room</b></p>
<p>Located on the second floor of the The Great Hall, the Conversation Room is a classic Victorian room. With its white walls and chandeliered ceiling it is the perfect “gathering place” for your next venue. At 1,200 sq. ft. it can accommodate up to 117 people standing and seating is flexible.</p>
<p><b>Longboat Hall</b></p>
<p>In 1889 this hall became the first West End YMCA gymnasium. It is a two-storey venue with a street-level main entrance on Dovercourt Rd. This space stretches up to 5,000 sq. ft. and can fit up to 400 people standing. This venue is also complete with a state-of-the-art audio/ visual system and a modulator stage.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have been following our series of how to market and create the buzz on social media, here is our new video!</p>
<p>This time we are telling you how to promote your event through Snapchat: a messaging mobile app where you can share exciting pictures, videos and daily life stories to others in a 10 second window. Snapchat sends pictures and videos that you will be able to see from 1 to 10 seconds before they disappear. This application is used by millions of young users which makes it the perfect place to market your event to this type of attendee.</p>
<h3><b>Here are some highlights of the video:</b></h3>
<ul>
<li>Snapchat is easy to use. You only have to download the application on your phone and create your account.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Snapchat has its own terminology such as: snaps which are photos or videos, and stories which are series of snaps that you can send to your friends. You can personalize any of your snaps with filters, emojis or drawings.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Unlike other social media, Snapchat has a time constraint on the shared content, which means any snap you send will expire and will not be seen ever again. Stories are the best tool for your marketing campaign as the snaps can be seen during 24h. The extended view time opens the door to all kinds of creative marketing campaigns. For example, you can create a series of videos and images showing the progress of the preparation for your event or the teams working on certain aspects of the event.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Snapchat is an exciting application as it allows you to be very creative and to stand out from other companies. There are different ways you can market your event and create buzz such are creating offers &amp; promotions, teasers like a behind the scenes of your event, giveaways and storytelling.</li>
</ul>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have been following our series of how to market and create the buzz on social media, here is our new video!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This time we are telling you how to promote your event through Periscope: an application that allows you to “go live” via your mobile at anytime and anywhere. This mobile application allows you your own “on the go” broadcasting station, streaming video and audio to any viewers who join your broadcast. Periscope is an amazing tool to promote your company and your events as it is free, easy to use and is a unique way of promotion. Periscope is  also a great tool to interact with your attendees and subscribers as you can live stream during your event or conduct interviews live.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Here are some highlights of the video:</b></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Periscope is easy to use. You can use your twitter account to log in so it will be easier to share that you are going live on social media.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Periscope is only composed of 4 tabs: the list of people you are following and are live, the live public broadcast to join, your broadcast booth and the people to follow.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Periscope is a great tool to promote your event before, but also during and after. It allows you to show all the different aspects of your event and can help you get more attendees or make your event more popular. For example, run a giveaway, hold a behind the scenes broadcast, interview special guests or speakers, or live stream the opening of your event.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Announce on all your social media when you are going live! Since your Twitter account is connected to your periscope account, it makes it easier to promote your live broadcast. You want as many viewers as possible, so it is important that you share in advance when you are doing your broadcast. Share this information on all your social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc. and announce it in your newsletter.</li>
</ul>
