REFRESH<\/strong> vb.\u00a0 to revive, to invigorate, to enliven, to stimulate<\/em><\/p>\n

Ever asked yourself\u2026
<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cHow do we do things differently this year?\u201d\u00a0 \u201cHow do we engage our guests?\u201d
\u201cWe\u2019ve booked a venue what else can we do?\u201d \u201cWhat is going to give us the best bang for our buck?\u201d
\u201cHow do we incorporate our brand messages in an effective way?\u201d
<\/em>
Welcome to Hunter Valley Events \u2013 Event Refresher Tips<\/em> \u2013 our aim is to provide you with some FRESH ideas that ensure your next event \u2018engages\u2019<\/em> those who attend, and \u2018adds value\u2019<\/em> to your brand.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s five (5) tips<\/strong> to get you started on a FRESH <\/strong>approach to your next event;<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Look at the format of your event<\/strong> \u2013 try mixing it up a bit from time to time.
    Consider a change to the style\/set-up<\/u> of your event \u2013 if it\u2019s normally sit down, consider a cocktail function \u2013 it allows for more mingling or networking. If there are formalities such as awards, then do them first in a theatre style set up (or a theatre!), then open up to a cocktail function (keep stand up presentations short). If you need to involve interstate or international guests, consider \u2018live tele-conference feeds\u2019 in some format rather than flying them in \u2013 you can also consider mini-functions at these locations. Or do a road show or multiple smaller events.\u00a0 What about a \u2018fair style\u2019 format rather than a structured sit down \u2013 this can be done inside or outdoors. Ever thought about a day time activity such as tour to a mystery location (with fun & games included) instead of a dinner function?<\/li>\n
  2. Consider a change in time of the event <\/strong>\u2013 <\/em>If you have always had a dinner function, think about a lunch, what about a breakfast or brunch if budget or timeframe is tight. A high tea also adds an element of class and keeps things to a shorter time frame. If a Christmas function is getting too difficult to do at the end of the year \u2013 why not change it to a New Year\u2019s or Christmas in July date.<\/li>\n
  3. Seek out a unique venue for your event<\/strong> \u2013 this can add a real point of difference to your event.
    Look beyond the norm and you will be surprised by what you will find. Try matching the venue to what you are trying to achieve with your event.\u00a0 If you are re-launching your brand \u2013 why not consider having it on your site if it suits \u2013 a marquee over a car park or a shed \u2013 with some styling can be very effective and memorable. Make the venue a surprise bush or pop-up location, theme park, beach, museum, art gallery, barge or boat \u2013 even a wharf, an old factory or vacant warehouse, an airport hangar \u2013 all will add a point of difference that can complement your event\u2019s purpose.<\/li>\n
  4. Focus on \u2018guest engagement\u2019<\/strong> \u2013 add an interactive activity such as; some pre-dinner games, themed photo booth, or make the guests the entertainment. Include a social media competition in the lead up, during or post event. If it\u2019s a social function why not start with a progressive barn dance to get everyone mixing and laughing! If it\u2019s a networking event perhaps an introductory exercise to get people talking.<\/li>\n
  5. Find a strategic partner\/s for your event <\/strong>\u2013 share the love (and cost!) around.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Partnering another business in an event can have enormous benefits.\u00a0 It can offer financial support (not always \u2013 you may need to pay them to be there), boost attendance, increase exposure, add value\/endorse your brand, and forge long term alliances. Consider joining up with other complementary businesses for your Christmas function \u2013 to increase the social aspect and function options. So\u2026 find yourself a friend, charity, strategic alliance or partner and start sharing the love and reaping the rewards.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
