I Want To Organize An Event
Staging an event can deliver significant rewards
in market presence and profitability, however,
without professional management, the associated
risks can be considerable. You need to attract
the right size audience, and enough exhibitors
and sponsors to cover guaranteed outlay under
such categories as hotel food and beverage
minimums, speakers costs, educational credit
submissions and so on. |

I Want To Attend an Event
Choosing suitable events to attend is vital, as
the cost in not achieving your goals can be
significant. First, FMI will assist you in
identifying the most appropriate events, based
on your requirements. In other words, do you
want to look at new markets to promote your
products to a wider audience? Or, will there be
enough attendee prospects to justify the cost of
a booth, travel, accommodation and so on?
Standing
out.
getting noticed. |
Sometimes, companies attend events
simply to be seen. They say, "If our
competitors are there and we're not,
people will ask questions?" Other times,
we hear, "Our location wasn't great.
It
was well attended, but we didn't see
that many. Took leads, but not sure how
many, if any, generated new business. Or "Have been to that event previously,
but it didn't give us the return we
expected."
Changing
sentiments
|
With FMI Event Management, we strive to
take away all such comments and work to
ensure that your goals and return on
investment is realized.
-
Identify
suitable events based on your
business needs and the apparent
opportunities.
-
Assess
and assist with the design and
production of any point of sale
material required. Perhaps you need
new graphics that show a product
launch; maybe a flyer or postcard to
send/hand out
-
Training
your company representatives, so they can be more
effective at the booth.
-
Prepare
press packs and lead generation forms,
specific to the relevant information you
need to obtain.
