Lessons Learned from Hosting Live Events

Elizabeth shares valuable lessons learned from hosting live events, emphasizing the importance of planning, communication, and adaptability. Are you are considering hosting an event for your business, but don’t know where to start in organizing and execution? Or maybe you have hosted an event in the past but would like to change a few things for the next event. What I share might resinate with you as you listen to what worked and what just didn’t go well for me for my last two live events. My hope is that you will gain the confidence, feel the excitement and spark new ideas as you listen to my experiences and find the encouragement to host your own event! 

Highlights

•  In-Person Connection: Live events foster stronger connections that online interactions can’t replicate.
•  Importance of Planning: Secure contracts with speakers and establish clear communication to avoid misunderstandings.
•  Logistics Matter: Consider food options and dietary restrictions when organizing events.
•  Theme & Structure: Having a specific theme and clear agenda enhances the overall experience and keeps the event on track.
•  Tech Support: Hire a tech team to manage live streaming and other technical aspects for smoother execution.
• Embrace Imperfection: Acknowledge that not everything will go perfectly; use challenges as motivation to improve future events.
•  Self-Care: Allow time for downtime to recharge amidst the hustle of hosting
