Organising Events
First task of all, you need to be sure that an event is really the best way to get your
message across to customers. Maybe advertising or direct mail would be more
34 effective instead. While an event involves persuading key people to attend,
35 and can take out a great deal of time and money, so you should think very
36 carefully before choosing that method. If you go for an event, see how soon
37 others do it, and adapt from their ideas to suit your own circumstances. You'll
38 need to produce an event strategy and checklist, and then keep on to it. Make
39 sure your key players agree to look an outline strategy at the start. The smallest
40 things can let you go down, with potentially serious results. This means you
41 should have plans in place in which case speakers arrive late, contractors are
42 unreliable or equipment fails. Keep everyone involved informed of how plans
43 are progressing, to avoid a lack of information is leading to confusion and
44 uncertainty. Form. a team and delegate responsibilities. Afterwards, thank to
45 everybody. This is very important: after all, you could well need them again next time.
