Recently, I was looking forward to going to a black event but this was dispelled as soon as I had entered the event.
There are several things which I will note:
- The reception was not courteous
- The leaflet had random pieces of information
- No itinerary for the days events
- No schedule for the speakers
- The event information was a Facebook page
- No activities for children
- There was no menu
This could easily have been:
- A warm welcome
- Simple but effective design of a leaflet/flyer
- A itinerary of what would be happening on the day
- A schedule of the days events
- Having a website as a first point of contact, with a Facebook page as a signpost
- Speakers being on time
- Activities for children
- Food menu as it had a cafeteria
The effect of being more organised:
- A value for money event
- More support in future
- A service which is worthwhile
- More transparent operation
- People who are capable of delivering a great event
- Repeat custom
The event could have been cheaper, and the atmosphere considering the topic it was focused on could have been more welcoming and interactive. It is some thing which an event organiser may think about as well as the committee of the organisation.
