How to make any event engaging

As a PA, you are always busy organising events – from cocktail parties and team-building activities to board meetings and lunches with clients. Inevitably, it is also up to you to ensure that everything goes smoothly and that everyone enjoys the experience. This is hard to control; every invitee has different needs.

But it’s not impossible to keep everyone happy. Here are three ways to engage your guests successfully:

Keep it interactive
Organising a meeting with a range of documents, presentations and images? All this information should come in one simple package for invitees. Rather than printing out hand-outs, enhance the interactivity and incorporate everything into an app. With the event app from Concise, you can make last-time changes easily with updates in real time. Someone else’s indecision shouldn’t have to become your problem.

Delegate to a trusted partner
Assign some tasks to specialists to leave yourself enough time to take care of your guests. You shouldn’t have to be an IT expert to use an app for your event. The team at Concise knows it can be stressful to be responsible for working the technology, as well as everything else, so they provide on-site staff to take the pressure off you.

Treat every guest as an individual
Expectations increase each year. It is not enough for your event to go according to plan – everyone should feel included. Personalisation is the key to attendee satisfaction. With the Concise app, you can create a personalised agenda, including details relevant to each guest. For international audiences, make app content available in multiple languages. This extra attention to detail will make invitees feel positive about their event experience.

Concise provides interactive apps and iPads for all types of events, taking care of check-in and engagement so you can concentrate on your guests.
