Event Planning/Logistics

Corporate Events - Air Travel TipsAaaah the wonderful world of travel! For many, travel is all about leisure and fun… but for others travel is a necessary evil… a complex labyrinth to learn and navigate for the sake of conducting business. When it comes to meetings and events, travel is often an added layer of complexity on top of something that’s already complex – enough to make your head hurt!

Perfection Events - Know, Do, FeelOk, so this is my absolute favorite topic… seriously. No exaggeration, this stuff gets me all amped up because it’s at the core of what we live for here at Perfection Events  – results. Measurable results to be exact.

You see, meetings and events are often at the forefront of any strategy employed to communicate important messages. Think about it:

Event Contract Tips - Perfection EventsThis week’s topic is one of my favorites… there is nothing I enjoy more than that moment – after taking the time to research venues, go on site visits, send out RFPs, accept and/or negotiate a deal – that I receive that first contract for review.

So, there’s an old adage: “If you aim for nothing, you’ll hit it every time.” I always thought this was just some sly way for parents, teachers… well adults in general to trick me into sharing my goals for the sole purpose of holding me to attaining them. Nonetheless, some 20+ years later I find myself parroting these same words of wisdom to clients, colleagues, friends, and [gasp] even my own children!

Perfection Events - It's Your Turn!If you’re experiencing this wonderful mix of excitement and apprehension sprinkled with a bit of debilitating fear relating to your turn hosting / coordinating / slaving over an upcoming family reunion...  this blog entry is for YOU. And if our slightly concerned friend to the right accurately depicts your innermost feelings about this impending task... keep reading. Although I can’t make it go away, nor can I suddenly transport you 10 months into the future when all coordination is completed and you’re leisurely enjoying the BBQ, I can offer a few tips to help you along the way.

First, to abruptly address the elephant in the room, I will candidly state that Perfection Events does produce family reunion events—we’ve worked with clients to do as little as negotiate hotel pricing or as much as manage all communication, payments, contracts and each minute detail. BUT, this blog entry is not about us, it’s about you! As I said before, such as we have we give unto you… this blog is dedicated to providing you with tools for success whether you hire us or not.
