To ensure the smooth functioning of the event and to make sure objectives are met, it is very important for Event managers to segregate the attending audience category-wise.

Based on our past experience organizing events, this minute detailing can do wonders to the overall show running and it helps in identifying what resources one needs to deploy so that the client can concentrate fully on interaction with Guests.

We have been doing this for a while and believe that the people at the event make the event and have developed these 4 character sketches which are our bible for the events we do.

THE CLIENT

While reading this you might think, geez what a surprise BUT although obvious it is critical to give the client a dedicated runner who is to be with the client at all times, so that any urgent requirement the client may have is addressed in a timely fashion and extremely promptly. It is also as important for the entire event crew manning different stations to identify which persons at the event represent the client company, so that if needed, they can approach the representative closest to them and action the crisis accordingly.

THE GUESTS

Again, stating the obvious. But a person to man the registration desk with the hostesses is essential in segregating the Guests from someone playing a more participatory role within the event. It also helps in providing the attending guests with a delightful and smooth experience where they are immediately identified, the registration process is completed and are escorted to their seats by the hostesses.

THE VIP

Besides the client, there has to at all times be one resource stationed near where the VIP’s are seated and the VIP’s need to be told about that person. This just allows to eliminate the possibility of the VIP requiring something and it not being readily available.

THE SPEAKERS

One person who has a clear comm and is in direct communication with the console manager is in charge of this set of audiences. This person ensures the speakers are identified, Dry-Run done, Presentations loaded at the console and that the speakers are intimated about going up on stage at least 15 minutes before.

The above practice has been a big help for us to help our clients meet their objectives and when put in practice it tends to elevate the level of service provided by a notch.

It has always been our motto to help ” Drive Business Growth through Tangible Event Experiences ” and this small step helps us achieve that very effectively.
