Advertising, Event Networking, Event Sponsors No Comments »

Organizing an event involves a large amount of work and effort that goes into planning something significant for a community or group of people. Another big responsibility for event planners is creating value to sponsors, who are supporting the event and in return are expecting access to commercial advertising platforms. It is in this way that sponsors, or advertisers, gain business opportunities and recognition from suppliers, customers, organizers and visitors of the event.
Promoting your company logo and basic profile derives benefits for both parties as positive associations are made between the event theme and the exclusive sponsors. Sponsors are also critical as they play an essential part in the continuing success and growth of community events, as well as increasing employee engagement, expanding access to media and building their brand presence.

As sponsors create trusting relationships with clients and customers at annual events, they also enter into competitive environments where other companies are equally approached and also crave to secure the mutually desired benefit of sponsorship category exclusivity. Endorsing one’s corporate identity with the logo or brand name on as many promotional items as possible is the key incentive for sponsorship by big companies.

Facilitating networking efforts at conferences and trade shows

Event Networking, Uncategorized No Comments »

Preparing for a trade show or business conference is a huge task. There are many details and logistics to arrange for an event that unites buyers, sellers, media representatives and partners. Identifying who you are targeting or pursuing is an obvious requirement in order to maximize networking efforts and receive valuable feedback.

The location, timing and content are three critical issues for all conferences, but more important is building connections and introductions. However tedious a show may seem, it is important that the show provides participants with useful activities that complement the general atmosphere of the show and facilitate successful networking between buyers and sellers. Trade shows and conferences create remarkable and impressive environments for exhibitors and attendees to meet prospective partners and customers in a very short period of time, personally present their products or services (and any useful product information) and establish a dependable relationship and fine first impression.

The trade show gives vendors an ideal opportunity to make early introductions that can lead to future fruitful business communications and dealings. Therefore it is worthwhile for vendors to make the effort in two main areas:

  • define and grasp the message to express to all attendees and visitors
  • pre-plan to meet relevant attendees and prospects

Two main types of supporting solutions available today for exhibitors and attendees at conferences include hiring an expert to assist with organizing the show and related activities, or various applications that provide a platform for organizing show details and tasks. Building on the deep need for fruitful interactivity between show participants, and on advancement in mobile technology, YasmoLive offers a new kind of solution to help enhance networking activities and easily connect with customers, prospects and the media attending the conference. We invite you to explore our website and learn more about YasmoLive and the great features it offers for all those interested in fruitful networking.
