The Ultimate Event Planning Guide
How to Save Money and Time While Planning a Successful Event
Let’s face it, you have A LOT on your plate each day.
No matter your title, adding event planning to your to-do list can feel overwhelming. Many organizations don’t have in-house event management expertise or resources (such as time and money) dedicated to planning meetings and events, and sometimes, you don’t know a puzzle piece is missing until you’re almost finished. That’s where Beth Lawrence Meetings & Events comes in!
I created this comprehensive guide to planning a successful event. It covers a little bit about each of the following categories: event strategy, program planning, permits, insurance, event project management, planning team, partners, speakers, sponsors, stakeholders, purpose, takeaways, marketing objectives, venue, virtual real estate, location, timing, team structure, total budget, budget by department, attendee and sponsor investment, timeline, event length, and experiential elements of an event.
If one (or two) of these phrases caused a raised eyebrow because you forgot this step, this guide is for YOU.
But why does it matter?
Events are a never-ending, intersecting series of details and decisions coming together to create a one-of-a-kind experience. Planning a successful event takes time, expertise, and thoughtful consideration of each stakeholder’s goals, objectives, and reasons for supporting the event.
I’ve collected all of the most important elements of the event planning process and condensed the most pertinent questions into one helpful worksheet. This document is designed to help save you time and inspire you as you craft your event and create an experience that your attendees and key stakeholders won’t soon forget.
If you have been looking for a comprehensive event planning and management ebook and downloadable PDF, look no further.
