Hub You - 10 Tips For Bringing Your Event To Life
It sounds like a ridiculous statement. “The guest is not the enemy”. Of course they aren’t! But to many of us, the guest is the enemy. How quickly we can take that guest at the front desk and turn them into fire breathing dragons, monsters that have every staff member on edge and scared to death.Here is a scenario on how one of your guests becomes the enemy: Jane Guestarama has been bumped from two flights on the way to your hotel. She had an argument with her boyfriend about where they are going to spend the holidays while she waited for the next flight. Half of her luggage was sent to Mars. The taxi that delivered her to your front door smelled like a locker room, she has a really bad headache and now she is standing at your front desk. The standard welcome is not received well by Jane, she needs more. The front desk agent quickly categorizes Jane as “a problem” and without even thinking about it, puts up a wall of indifference to Jane’s situation. Jane checks in and heads to her room, her h

The function of Human Resource Management contains a number of activities. The most important among them is to understand your small or home-based business’s recruitment needs. HRM is responsible for deciding that whether to hire freelancers or appoint full-time workforce for the business setup you have. Hiring and training the best workers, making sure that they are high performers, ensure your personal management practices and try to be conventional to various policies are some of the Human Resource Management activities.Mostly commercial or non-commercial small or home-based businesses have to carry out the human resource activities by themselves, as they cannot afford recruiting human resource management at their early stages. Conversely they should make the employee certain about the terms and conditions and the corporate policies of your business. Usually, those rules, regulations and policies are mentioned in the appointment letter provided to them at the time of their hiring. Besides that, do not m
These types of affairs differ from your typical corporate business meeting, and you face unique issues and pitfalls when planning them. Rave program reviews are generally the result of the blood, sweat, and tears you devote to the project. A well-designed and well-orchestrated event is analogous to a good stage production. It’s all about getting your act together and performing the right show for the right audience.
The following are 10 tips that zero in on the nitty gritty elements that can help earn your efforts glowing reviews (and make your mom really proud of you). As you begin each planning program, a key question to ask yourself is, “how can each activity engage the participant’s interest?”
Tip #1: Decide When To Stage Your Event
Timing is everything. The decision about when to hold your event is determined in large part by what type of event it is. Ask yourself, is the event better suited for the day or evening? Do you want to hold it during the week or on a weekend? If your event doesn’t have a deadline, would it be best to hold it during a specific season or time of year? Make sure to check that your event doesn’t overlap with any religious holidays, and it’s probably best to avoid scheduling during major sporting events.

One of the best ways to get a referral is to give a referral. When you give someone a referral, they are forever grateful and will feel obligated to return the favor.Before you can go ahead and give someone a referral, you must know them and know their business, this much is obvious. You wouldn’t refer somebody that needs their house sided to a painter would you? Of course not.There are many ways to get to know people within your business community and a lot of places to go to meet them.For starters you can attend networking groups, chamber luncheons, Lions clubs, or rotary clubs, to name a few.These organizations meet either weekly or monthly, and they offer a great opportunity for people within the business community to meet, network, and get to know each other.I once had a friend that I worked with in the mortgage business. He would attend networking luncheons religiously, but he would often come back from his meetings disappointed.One day I decided to ask him why he w

When it comes to employee engagement and commitment to an organization, most companies would agree that they ‘have some, want more.’ Why? These companies have come to recognize that their organization’s long-term success relies on employee performance, which is directly impacted by the level of employee engagement and commitment to an organization.How is employee engagement and commitment defined? According to a 2003 report by Towers Perrin, it is defined as “employees’ willingness and ability to contribute to company success.” What does that mean in real terms? It is the extent to which your employees are willing to put discretionary effort into their work in the form of “extra time, brainpower and energy.”If you’re like most corporate leaders, you are probably thinking to yourself, ‘Wishful thinking.” Worse, some corporate leaders think that simply making people happy and paying them more money is the solution. Not so. These are certainly important considerations for any company that wants to attr

Advertising is not for every company. But some require it because their market is big and constantly changing and evolving. Consider this, up to 30 percent of the people in the US move each year. Or, you may be locked into a battle with a competitor. People do business with companies they know and trust. Advertising can help build awareness, so that eventually consumers will trust your offer.I firmly believe that advertising is an excellent tool for rapidly building awareness of a company, its products or services. I believe equally firmly that you build a brand through public relations, not advertising.A brand is the sum of all interactions a customer has with an organization. Most of those interactions are with employees, or the product or service itself. If those interactions are positive, then customers, allies and the media will tell others. This is PR.There are times when you need a rapid shot of marketing adrenaline that only paid media can provide.So, if you find yourself in ne

Tip #2: Map Out A Location
The first order of business is to decide whether to hold your event indoors or outdoors. However, outdoor events have several major considerations, the elements being number one on the list. Think tents, portable flooring, electric generators, and space heaters, in addition to a well thought out contingency plan. Also, be aware that speeches and audiovisual presentations are notoriously difficult to stage outdoors.
Tip #3: Consider Unique Environments
Hotel meeting rooms can get old very quickly and the thought of a unique environment can immediately add interest and excitement. Consider retreat centers, cruise ships or yachts, museums, stately home, sporting venues, and theaters. Realize that many of these venues work well for special functions, but they don’t necessarily have adequate meeting facilities and equipment. Make sure you do your homework beforehand and abide by the “Meeting Planner’s Golden Rule” - never select a venue without having seen it in person!
Tip #4: Set The Stage
The program plan you choose stems from the purpose and participants. Your four main considerations include:
- What is the main emphasis of the program – educational, business or social?
- What are your financial criteria – generate revenue, break even, or be a company expense?
- What are your participants’ expectations?
- What is the optimum ration of educational, business, and social programming?
Tip #5: Create The Right Atmosphere
One key to a successful special event is to seek out entertainment or decorations that are unique and fun to spark excitement and add the right ambiance. T
