1 Define your objectives

Before you start planning your event, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve and how you will measure it. Do you want to launch a new product, educate your audience, or generate sales? What are the key performance indicators (KPIs) that will show you if your event was successful? How will you collect and analyze the data? Having a SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound) objective will help you focus your efforts and resources on the most important aspects of your event.

In my opinion, events shouldn't be considered a stand-alone marketing tactic; therefore, aligning them with the overall company strategy is a very important initial step. It will be a starting point to define objectives and metrics and eventually report on an event result and performance. Define a poll of stakeholders who will be involved in an event's logistics, content, delivery, and reporting. These people should be on-board ASAP in the planning phase.

2 Know your audience

Another crucial step in organizing a successful marketing event is to understand who your target audience is and what they want. You need to do some research to find out their demographics, preferences, pain points, and expectations. This will help you design an event that appeals to them and meets their needs. You can use surveys, interviews, social media, or customer data to gather insights about your audience. You can also segment your audience into different personas or groups based on their characteristics and behaviors.

This point applies not just to the events but to any marketing tactics. Field sales or inside sales teams are you best friends to learn more about the audience.

3 Choose your format and venue

Once you have defined your objectives and audience, you need to decide what kind of event you want to host and where. Depending on your budget, goals, and audience size, you can choose from various formats, such as webinars, workshops, seminars, trade shows, or product demos. You also need to consider whether you want to host a live, virtual, or hybrid event, and what platforms or tools you will use. Additionally, you need to find a suitable venue that matches your theme, capacity, and location. You should also check the availability, accessibility, and amenities of the venue.

4 Create a plan and a budget

After you have chosen your format and venue, you need to create a detailed plan and a budget for your event. Your plan should include all the tasks, timelines, and responsibilities involved in organizing and running your event. You should also assign a team or a project manager to oversee the process and communicate with the stakeholders. Your budget should include all the expenses and revenues related to your event, such as venue rental, catering, marketing, speakers, equipment, tickets, or sponsorships. You should also have a contingency plan and a buffer for unexpected costs or changes.

In many cases, the event budget is pre-defined in a company's yearly budget, so you'll need to work with what you have. Keep records of past events, it will help you to better and easier plan the budget for the next year.

5 Promote your event

To attract and engage your audience, you need to promote your event effectively. You should use a mix of online and offline channels, such as email, social media, blogs, podcasts, flyers, or press releases, to spread the word about your event. You should also create a landing page or a website for your event that provides all the relevant information and a clear call to action. Moreover, you should leverage your network, partners, influencers, or media outlets to amplify your reach and credibility. You should also create a hashtag and a logo for your event to increase its visibility and recognition.

6 Deliver and follow up

The final step in organizing a successful marketing event is to deliver a memorable and valuable experience to your audience and follow up with them afterwards. You should ensure that everything runs smoothly and professionally on the day of the event, and that you have enough staff, equipment, and materials to support your attendees. You should also interact with your audience, collect feedback, and thank them for their participation. After the event, you should send them a thank you email, a survey, or a offer, and invite them to stay in touch with you. You should also evaluate your event based on your objectives and KPIs, and identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for improvement.

In my experience, it is paramount that you initiate follow-up contact with attendees. Thanking them creates an environment of patronage, loyalty and great service. The use of survey’s are critical as well. It gives you an outsider perspective of the event — the pros and the cons — what needs to be improved upon, what was missing or what was absolutely stellar. This will give you a strong compass to navigate through the next event you organize. It is crucial and priceless information that will prove valuable in your next endeavors!
