The Third & Final Part of our Attendee Communication 101 Series! Over the last few weeks, we’ve explored how thoughtful and intentional communication is an integral part of an event running smoothly. From crafting the perfect pre-event strategy to ensuring seamless day-of updates, every touchpoint has played a role in supporting your attendees and engaging in precious data collection. Visit our previous posts here ??https://lnkd.in/ga6k5EQE and here ??https://lnkd.in/g26uNmBd. Once the event is over, it’s time to capture the excitement and capitalize on the peak engagement! Post-event communication is your chance to keep the momentum alive, nurture relationships, gather insights, and build anticipation for what’s next. Here’s how to keep the energy alive: ?? Wrap It Up Right: Send a follow-up email with session recordings, key takeaways, and heartfelt thank-you notes. This leaves a lasting and meaningful final impression. Or even get ahead of the game and send a safe travels email of gratitude an hour or two within the event wrap, including a CTA that is meaningful for your organization. ?Ask for Feedback: Incentivize attendees to complete surveys with exclusive perks like discounts, insider access, or product samples. Their insights are invaluable for your next event. Make sure it is something ONLY the attendee can get by participating, not something already on offer. ?? Build Future Excitement: Use the energy from your event to pre-register attendees for your next one. Tease what’s coming and give them a reason to stay connected. Secure your next destination before announcing pre-registration and you can extend the conference hype. Thank you for reading our Event Communication 101 series, we hope it lit sparks of wisdom and action for each of you!

Welcome to Part Two of our Attendee Communication 101 series. Covering communication now that your guests are registered and in the room! Due to your strategic pre-event communication, your attendees are ready to engage and make the most of the experience your team has worked so hard to create. (Feeling a little lost? Head back to our post on how to set the “stage” pre-event! ??https://lnkd.in/ga6k5EQE) The arrival of your event doesn’t mean your communication stops! In fact, great communication during the event is what keeps everything running smoothly, helps attendees feel valued, and ensures they stay engaged from start to finish. Plus, it will free you up to oversee more valuable tasks that pull for your time on-site. Here’s how to maximize communicating with your guests during your event: ?? Stay Agile: Use text/Slack updates or event apps to share real-time changes, venue navigation tips, or exclusive opportunities. Keeping attendees in the loop makes them feel supported. Be strategic here, you only want to text your attendees 3-5 times in an entire day. ?? Offer Alternatives: Not everyone opts into text updates. Provide a live event landing page for real-time updates that mirror your text communications. Create pop-up notices for updates as well as update the agenda live to avoid confusion. ?? Enhance Connection: Use natural on-site touchpoints to connect and foster deeper relationships with attendees. A friendly personalized check-in at registration, a quick VIP meet-and-greet, or taking advantage of lines to check in and solicit live feedback. Anything unexpected goes a long way in creating lasting impressions. Stay tuned for the final part of our Event Communication 101 series!

Introducing our Attendee Communication 101 series! This month, we’re diving into the art of effective attendee communication, sharing our best tips and tricks to help you streamline messaging and maximize engagement. To kick things off, we’re focusing on pre-event communication, a critical phase where laying the groundwork is pivotal. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by a flood of pre-event emails, or worse, arrived unprepared because you didn’t get enough information? Planning a seamless event starts well before attendees walk through the door. Pre-event communication sets the tone, builds excitement, and ensures guests arrive informed and engaged. But there’s a fine line, too many emails, and they’ll tune out; too few, and they might feel unprepared. This is what we refer to as the Goldilocks principle of event communication. ??https://lnkd.in/gpDtKWYb Here are our top pre-event communication strategies to strike the perfect balance: - CURATE YOUR INVITATION STRATEGY: Align your guest list with your event’s goals. Send personalized invites that create meaningful connections and excitement from the start. More on perfecting your invitation strategy here ?? https://lnkd.in/gb8A2Ed9 - CENTRALIZE INFORMATION: Build a clean, easy-to-navigate landing page that houses everything from schedules to FAQs, so attendees always know where to go for updates. - CONSOLIDATE UPDATES: Skip the email overload! Send one beautifully designed “Know Before You Go” guide with packing tips, key details, and links to your landing page. Pre-event communication is your chance to set your guests up for success and ensure they arrive at your event prepared and ready to maximize the day. Stay tuned for more of our Attendee Communication 101 series!

Why Your Attendees Are the Key To a Game-Changing Event Your guest list isn’t just a logistical detail that should be put together without strategy, it’s the heart of your event’s success. The right attendees bring energy, spark collaboration, and amplify your event’s purpose. Curating a purposeful audience is more than filling seats, it’s about aligning the “why” of your event with those who’ll benefit most and add value. ?? Here are four considerations we keep top of mind when putting together our clients guest lists: 1?? Define Your Goals: Fully understand the purpose of your event. 2?? Profile Your Audience: Focus on those who bring and receive value. 3?? Aim for Quality: A smaller, engaged group often outperforms a large, disengaged one. 4?? Foster Meaningful Connections: Personalize your outreach and prioritize interaction opportunities. When you’re intentional about who’s in the room, your event becomes a catalyst for real change.
