Event Marketing Success | How do you measure it?

Event marketing not only continues to grow, it grabs the lion’s share of the budget. But, how do you go about finding out whether it’s working? Have you set goals? Are they measurable? Are they realistic? Did you Google search to find what goals you thought were appropriate and come up with a few ways of measuring them that you thought were, ‘OK’?

Sustainable Event Management

Even if you are just thinking about how to stage more a sustainable event, it’s important to ‘spread the word’ about your work. Share your initiatives with clients, guests, suppliers, industry partners, colleagues and management. Ask what can be done, find out how you can implement change and keep within the budget.

People will appreciate your efforts to reduce the carbon footprint.
