Event planning in the 21st<\/sup> Century<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Event planning is not new \u2013 think of the old feudal system with lords, soirees and the jester or fool sent to entertain. The early 20th<\/sup> century is where we see the fastest adoption of event planning, however, where the nouveau-riche<\/em> started to hire others to plan their banquets, ballroom dances and fancy weddings. As transportation infrastructure grew, all of a sudden many people could attend such events and travel large distances if needed.<\/p>\n

With technological advances, events became televised and bam! A new and exciting industry was formally a hit profession. So now it is 2017, event planning is in a juncture, we are seeing the quiet mammoth known as event planning come into the limelight! The event industry is booming, so to be an effective event planner you\u2019ll need to do a few things differently:<\/p>\n

No more are you full of facts and schedules \u2013 you now need to know vast systems of technology<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Getting trained on multiple media and data systems is now a must to hold the level of information needed for a successful event today. Workflow systems, planning tools and \u201ccloud\u201d management are now part of every day diction.<\/p>\n

No more sole face to face relationships \u2013 you now need many more hybrid relationships<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Having a personal touch, and a personal relationship, is still very much key in this industry. Personally knowing as many people as possible is integral even. However, doing business with a handshake is long gone, and you\u2019ll need to have varying relationships with hundreds of vendors because vendors are key to the success of any event today. Maintaining this is difficult, so leveraging them through technology is the only way to truly stay on top of them all. Social network sites have become just one way to \u201ckeep fresh\u201d on what the vendor is doing so that once the time arrives to make the call and get a quote, both of you know the latest about each other. Today, going back and forth between real world meetings and the web are what makes today\u2019s event planner more successful.<\/p>\n

No more \u201cevent only\u201d events \u2013 you now need to provide experiences.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Today you have to up the ante. If you can create a mood, a feeling, a lasting memory, that is what will win future business over simply providing an event for the sake of it. Just like technology such as the tv \u2013 people are no longer content with a black and white, 14inch no remote tv with 2 channels\u2026today you need a 65 inch flatscreen LED with internet connectivity, multiple channels, movies, shows all on demand at the tap of a touch screen tablet remote, all in high definition. Just think about that for a second! This industry grows with clients\u2019 needs being met and exceeded\u2026which in itself makes them grow more. Focusing on creating memorable experiences rather than just scheduling an event is what will get clients calling you back for another unique experience.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
