At long last, it looks as though we can get ready to host and attend live events.
Great news, unless like me, you’ve forgotten all the important things around ‘planning and running’.
As with most aspects of life, my knowledge is limited, BUT thankfully, I know someone clever!
Lat week Joanne Gore posted this little beauty… just in time eh?:-
How to plan and survive your next event.
One of the biggest tragedies of the pandemic was the demise of live events. While their return should be welcomed, we can’t ignore that we spent over a year in lockdowns, missing out on the opportunity to shake hands, exchange business cards and connect with old (and new) friends. As a result, both new and seasoned event planners and marketers are dusting off event plans, adjusting budgets and revisiting ways to drive booth traffic, generate leads, and have a great show.
Whether you’re planning your first event ever – or simply the first in a while, Joanne Gore Communications, is here to help software, hardware, print and manufacturing companies prepare and conquer their next show – with tips, checklists, lead gen strategies and more.
So sit back, get comfortable, and get ready – the show floor opens in 5, 4, 3, 2, GO!
