As we navigate the dynamic landscape of 2024, small businesses and community organisations are discovering fresh ways to connect with their audience through events. 

While online events have a plan, we are going to share our viewpoint on online events and what you can do to generate interest and attention moving forward. 

In this article, we will explore the significance of reflection and provide a guide for any event organiser (this includes a business owner creating their own event) on how to effectively reflect on any events.

This blog post will guide your business through the process of preparing to hire an event planner, ensuring a smooth and successful collaboration that will make your event a standout success.

This is where event grants step onto the stage. Event grants are a lifeline for event organisers, providing the financial backing needed to transform ideas into memorable occasions.

This is an element of events that might not be spoken about often – cancelling or rescheduling an event. Let’s talk about it

The events industry is a complex web of coordination, involving multiple teams, vendors, and stakeholders coming together to create memorable experiences. With all moving parts and different people involved, the approval process in the events industry can be time consuming if no system is established.
