Five Details That Take a Corporate Event From So-So to Spectacular


By paying attention to these details, you can go a long way in ensuring that your event will meet its objective:

1. Plan a theme.

Your theme can help tie your event together and take it from bland to exciting. Use colors, logos and other elements to make your theme inviting and memorable. Make sure that your theme is carried through your invitations, decorations and program schedule. You can even find meeting entertainment that connects with your event theme.

2. Use social media.

Registering a hash tag for your event and making it known to your attendees is a great way to get everyone involved. Most corporate event attendees are on social media, and by having live tweeting from your event you can build buzz about your event. It will help pull the entire attendee group together and exposure your event to a wider audience on social media.

3. Work with a professional corporate entertainer.

Whether you want a keynote speaker, a musical revue or a spectacle style show, you can benefit from working with a professional corporate entertainment company. Having entertainment at your event can help make your event more memorable and exciting. By hiring a professional, you can ensure that your entertainment will be appropriate, well planned and easy to work with.

4. Use freebies and prizes.

Giveaways add an element of fun to any event. You can use anything from stress balls to clipboards to hats - there are many different options. Freebies can remind your event attendees of their participation long after the event and get them ready to attend next year.

5. Get feedback on your event.

People like to know that you care about their opinion, especially during big events. It's important to get feedback on your event. Make sure your team makes a point to reach out to attendees personally and get their opinion of the event. Not only will it help you develop a better relationship with attendees but it will help you get valuable information to plan the next event.
