Today was a whiteboard strategy day as we prepped for the flow of attendees arrival and the staffing of an upcoming event. These are the behind the scenes work that planners do to make events successful.

Content-rich events can bring more eyes to your ev

Content-rich events can bring more eyes to your event, increase attendance, and attendee engagement. Choosing content that attendees want and sometimes need to learn as well as from a reputable source entices attendees to attend over something irrelevant to their needs.

A helpful way to determine what content your attendees are interested in is by surveying the audience. If this is a repeat event, send out a post-event survey and ask what content they enjoyed learning and what content they wish they had learned. If this is a new event, send out an email survey or do a poll on social media to guide your content development.

Event technology can make or break an event. Strea

Event technology can make or break an event. Streamlining the event process for your attendees using technology can save you (and them) time and frustration. The SDME team uses technology like online event registration, on-demand name badge printing, conference mobile apps, and virtual event platforms to provide attendees with a streamlined experience.

However, technology is ever changing, and we are learning new tech trends like augmented reality or virtual reality and how to incorporate into our events for that "wow" factor. Or using artificial translation services to break down language barriers for more inclusive events.

What event technology will you be adopting in 2023 to better your events?

Creating environmentally conscious events can be c

Creating environmentally conscious events can be challenging. GBTA's June 2022 Sustainability Report states that 90% of organizations said they required professional guidance in their sustainability journey. In 2023, the demand for environmentally conscious events is even more present and SDME is here to guide you.

One simple way @kaylatal, our registration expert, reduces waste at registration, is by encouraging attendees to recycle their name badges at the end of the event.

How do you incorporate sustainability into your events?

😲"Wow" can sum up what attendees want and need

😲"Wow" can sum up what attendees want and need to feel when attending your 2023 events. To enhance engagement and make your events successful, don't be afraid to use all the skills, tools, and partnerships at your disposal. The Metaverse and social media can be a big help!

At SDME, our trusted and diverse partner relationships allow us to develop tailored experiences that will have your attendees walking away thinking, "Wow".

While virtual events aren't going anywhere, many businesses still favor in-person events. As a result, there is a lot of focus and optimism for 2023 in-person events.

The Meetings & Groups Business magazine and the 2023 AMEX Global Event Trends Forecast are predicting a positive outlook for 2023 events. Whether it be virtual or in-person, our team at SDME specializes in both and we are ready for what this year has in store.

Do you see the same trend?
