4 1. Event Planning Event planning can be highly stressful - or extremely energising. Often it s both. Planning a successful event takes time, cooperation, and an eagle eye for detail. Draw up a detailed activity plan, and get started! Get Help Planning Your Event Don't try and plan a big event alone. Form an organising committee to develop ideas for your event planning efforts. If that's not possible, at least recruit colleagues, friends and volunteers to help you. Activity Plan Your Event Planning Checklist Draw up an event activity plan, complete with a to do checklist and deadlines, covering every large and small activity that needs to happen in planning your event. See Appendix 1. Ask Questions When Planning Your Event As you re planning your event and booking venues, hiring caterers and sourcing entertainers, you should be asking yourself a series of questions that will help you make the right decisions. Consider: How will you pay for the event? Do you need funding? Can you seek sponsorship? Do you need permits for your event? Contact Mid-Western Regional Council for advice on this Do you need permission or licenses to use audio-visual materials? Do you need permission to post advertising material such as posters and banners in public areas? Does your venue need to be accessible to older people or people with a disability? Do you need a sign language or other language interpreter? PAGE 4 OF 15 MID-WESTERN REGIONAL COUNCIL
5 2. Creating an Event Timeline An effective event planning timeline will keep everyone on track and ensure you do not miss any important deadlines. A conference timeline is not just a long to-do list; it is also a schedule of key tasks and dates that are clearly defined and easy to use. Step 1 Build a Timeline Template Set up your conference or event timeline template in a system that is easy to manipulate such as Microsoft Word or Excel, or use project management software. Whatever system you select, you need to be able to add to the timeline, delete items and insert updates regularly. Step 2 What to Include If you are the only person managing the event, your timeline may be as simple as a list of key dates or milestones such as deposits due, mailing dates, meetings and confirmations of catering, venues and accommodation. If there are others involved in the event production, you may need a more comprehensive list such as tasks to be carried out, completion dates, who is responsible for each task and supplier contact details. Step 3: Enter deadlines Start at the date of your event, and work backwards according to how long each task will take. As early as possible, get deadlines and due dates from venues and other suppliers, and incorporate them into your timeline. You can base other tasks around these dates. Consider highlighting or colour-coding urgent or non-negotiable deadlines in your timeline to make them stand out from the others. MID-WESTERN REGIONAL COUNCIL PAGE 5 OF 15
6 3. Event Promotion Events are not just an end in themselves: they are also a great way to build relationships, increase leads and move prospects along the sales cycle. But to ensure the ongoing success of your events you need to put effort into promoting them well. Marketing your event Do not rely on one method of communicating about your event. Use a variety of promotional material and an integrated marketing approach that includes post, , telemarketing, websites, social media, advertising, press releases, online calendars and relevant publications. Start promoting your event or conference early Start promoting your event as early as possible. This will allow attendees to get the date/s in to their diary and arrange transport and accommodation needs if required. Encourage event delegate and guest participation Be succinct and to the point, but don t make the invitation so short that it fails to give enough reasons for guests to attend. Ensure your audience knows why they should participate. Be sure the promotional copy includes all the registration, cost, date and address details. Focus on the benefits of your event Focus on selling the benefits of attending your event. Include information about what guests will take home in terms of new knowledge or networking opportunities, or something tangible, such as workbooks, white papers, checklists or certificates of completion. PAGE 6 OF 15 MID-WESTERN REGIONAL COUNCIL
7 4. Trouble-shooter Guide for Event Planning Remember, something usually does and probably will go wrong at your event. However, it s often only the event organiser who knows about the problem. Keep a running sheet handy and try to stay one or two steps ahead of the schedule. And most importantly, don t drink too much Mudgee wine! Prepare for your event - checklist everything A week before your event, recheck everything, from attendees to suppliers. Make notes of things that could possibly go wrong, and develop a contingency plan. Arrive early at your conference or event Arrange for all your event organiser team-members to arrive early. This will buy you some extra time if changes need to be communicated. Arrange a meeting room in which you can brief the team. Post clear signs for event guests and suppliers Hang up visible signs for event guests, team-members and suppliers. Ensure there are signs everywhere people go, from bus stops and parking areas to the location itself. Write a list to minimise event problems Write up a contact list of everyone involved in the event, and hand it out to your event team. This includes team-members, vendors, suppliers, the venue-staff members, and speakers. Include everybody you may need to speak with during the event. Keep in contact with your event team and venue staff If possible, use a CB radio system to stay in touch with venue staff and your team-members. This gives you immediate access to help when you need it. If that s not possible use the mobile phone list above. Stay calm when problems arise If there s a positive and relaxed atmosphere at an event, smaller mistakes tend to go unnoticed. If things do go wrong, try not to panic. You won t help anyone if you try to solve problems while you re emotionally strung-out. Before making a major decision to rectify a problem, share it with the onsite manager, to gain a fresh perspective on your solution. MID-WESTERN REGIONAL COUNCIL PAGE 7 OF 15
8 5. Event Evaluation Evaluation is an important part of running an event or conference, and you shouldn t skip it just because you re exhausted. Evaluating your event helps you (and future event-planners) learn from your experiences. It s also the time to finalise guest communications and count the profit. Step 1: Request feedback - conference or event surveys Wherever possible, ask guests who attended your event to provide feedback. To gather this data, prepare a short survey. Ask the survey questions either at the end of the event, or send an invitation to guests asking them to participate in the survey. Combine this with event photos on your website to increase responses. Step 2: Meet with your team post-event About a week after the event, schedule a meeting with your event team. Discuss what went well, and where there was room for improvement. Write up notes from this meeting or put together a post-event evaluation form so that you or your successor have a good guide for the next event. Step 3: Thank conference and event guests It s a good idea to thank all the guests and participants in your event. Write letters or s to all the guests thanking them for attending. Write to all the speakers, entertainers and venues thanking them for their contribution: this will create a good lasting impression, and ease matters if you wish to use them again. Step 4: Tell the media about your event Write a media release and let the media know what happened at your event. Now that your event has actually happened, you ll have more to say (and photographs), which will make it more likely for them to pick the story up. This is invaluable exposure to help make your event a success next time, and to promote your company. PAGE 8 OF 15 MID-WESTERN REGIONAL COUNCIL
