Successful events don’t just happen. Whether you are a small business planning your grand opening event or a professional event planner managing a large conference, the success of your event is based on your ability to plan and pay attention to details.
Here is a tip that you can use to plan a successful event and send your attendees home talking about it for days to come:
Plan ahead and create a timeline from start to finish
A successful event is one that has been properly planned with achievable deadlines and goals.
In addition to your timeline that includes action items that need to be accomplished before your big day, don’t underestimate the value of having a plan for the actual event. Event planners that must manage multiple moving parts (and parties and people) during the event always have a “run of show” by their side during the event.
The run of show includes all information they need — from the exact time cocktail hour will end and guests will be asked to be seated for the main event to when a VIP will be arriving on-site — including contact information of all parties involved (so you can act quickly if something doesn’t go as planned).
