Successful events don’t just happen, they are planned and executed with precision. Venues 2 Events Management has developed 6 essential steps to creating successful business events. Once you understand our proven framework you can apply this to all of your events. We would love to show you our simple 6 step process! Welcome to our exciting world…

3. INVITATION
6. SUCCESS
What are you trying to achieve by holding an event? We will help you define your key objectives and tailor your event specifically to your purpose and audience. Do you ever get in your car and not know what the end destination is …no. Same rules apply to your event, we need to know where we are going and what the objectives are in order to meet and exceed them.
Venue selection is paramount to your event – you need to get it right Learn how to find and select the perfect venue for your event. Learn how to read and understand proposals, get tips on how to negotiate your final contract and ensure you are getting value for money.
Why create an amazing event if no-one is interested in turning up! We will take you through the importance of using a well worded and presented invitation to entice guests, convey important information and capture all the details you need. If someone has registered for your event, this is not enough to guarantee their attendance. We will help you to understand the importance of following up with your guests and create strategies to ensure they attend.
Have you thought of EVERYTHING? Audio Visual requirements, run sheets, timelines, floor plans, maps and parking details, presentations, guest speakers, sound checks, themeing, entertainment, budgets, background music, name badges, dietary requirements, catering, gifts, travel, accommodation and perhaps a number of other things you may not have even considered. We will make sure you do.
You’ve done all the preparation; now let’s make this event a success! Learn how to become the ultimate event boy/girl scout and “be prepared” for anything on the day… because anything CAN happen and it probably WILL!
This is where we come back to where it all began and make sure you have met your objectives by collecting feedback and doing post-event reviews. Did you meet your objectives? Did your guests leave with the impression you wanted them to? What did you do really well? What can you do to improve future events?
