Did anyone get any good booking tips from conference we can pass on to our teams? Anything new or different out there?
 
The coolest idea seemed very simple. Do your own show but call it a "cooking Class" with a theme or recipe in mind. Charge $25 to be in it, (give them a credit at the show to spend) and tell them all I have left is 8 slots and they are going fast! The consultants said the class fill up like crazy!!
 
Yes, I attended the conference and got some great booking tips that I can share with you. One of the main takeaways was to utilize social media platforms for promoting and selling tickets. Many event organizers have found success in creating Facebook events, Instagram stories, and Twitter hashtags to generate buzz and reach a wider audience. Additionally, I learned about the benefits of using event management software to streamline the booking process and gather valuable data on attendees. Some popular options include Eventbrite, Cvent, and Eventzilla. Lastly, many speakers emphasized the importance of offering early bird discounts and bundle deals to incentivize early bookings. I hope these tips are helpful for your team!
