PA Life was excited to have Quatreus as a stand partner at the PA Show Spring 2025 that took place at Excel London 26-27 February. Here’s a rundown of the experience and key takeaways from the team behind exceptional events delivered sustainably…
Experience | Could you just…?
Weβve just returned from the PA Show with business cards, QR code scans, leaflets, e-mail addresses, mobile numbers and more. Most of all, weβve met some new people and had some really interesting conversations. Whatβs not to like .. with face to face being our business!
One of the first enquiries at the show was from a chap who had just been βhandedβ ownership of the annual UK staff conference for 400 odd attendees. He had clearly done some background work and actually had a reasonable grasp of many of the elements β the problem was that he hadnβt the first idea of where he should start!
Hopefully I succeeded in helping him with that. What was interesting about that conversation was how common this is β so if you are in the same position, just please do get in touch as we are here to help!
” .. I have 100% trust in the Quatreus team to exceed my expectations when we partner to deliver events. They take the time to understand the audience, offer support, suggestions and creative input. They pull rabbits out of hats when required and their knowledge and expertise in their field are superb. It’s why theyβve been my chosen partner for over ten years. Contact them – you won’t be disappointed.”
Need a hand with delivering a great event for you, sustainably?
In addition to the obvious, our project & event management skills are key to the Quatreus offering β and our reputation for detail jealously guarded. Whether itβs organising site services, liaising with the venue, managing Risk Assessments and Health & Safety documentation or developing construction plans, we are considered a βsafe pair of handsβ by our clients.
“.. I do recognise that with the best will in the world, there are always things that we canβt plan for, or need to change, and itβs really recognised that you seem to spot these things and deal with them all the time β you are very good at this stuff huh! “
Another visitor to the stand walked up and, without preamble, asked βSo what do you do?βΒ My answer β equally succinct β was simply βEverything you need us to do – plus everything you donβt want and/or donβt have time to do yourself!β.
The secret of successful events is in the small details
This has always been the hallmark of events we run – as another recent testimonial cited ..
“.. You have all been an absolute pleasure to work with, and I am hugely grateful for all the work, thought and time that went into making last night as it was.Β Your team were true professionals and made our job so easy on the day, so please thank them all.Β It was a real treat to work with you all.”
And talking of βjustβ, its often the little things that really make the difference as a happy client recently wrote ..
“.. You have no idea what a big deal it is to hear βThatβs ok, leave it with meβ every time I ask an annoying question that is more than likely going to involve more work on your behalf π!Β Also really appreciated the short notice heaters and the locating of the missing half ton of chocolate!”
Finally I was approached by someone who wanted to challenge our βworking 9 – 5β tag line on our stand graphic.Β βItβs a joke .. right?β she asked.Β βIf you know, you know .. β I replied with a grin. I went on to explain that we know the working world isnβt β9 β 5β and probably never will be and that we work crazy hours supporting events & exhibitions so our clients donβt have to.
We are now planning a meet to discuss a number of events for the coming year β but the point is that the strap line generated a conversation with someone we might otherwise never have met or spoken with.
It’s good to talk – get in touch with the team at Quatreus
As someone once said, its good to talk β so whether youβre looking for some direction, up to your neck in logistics or βjustβ need a little inspiration, weβre here to help and weβd love to hear from you.
Quatreus | proud to be different
