Marketing Management - Delegate Boosting
We can examine your communication channels, create the databases needed to manage your contacts and profile your event through relevant media, websites and literature. All this is done in house, which enables us to control costs, keep all your messages consistent and for you to feel we’re working with you.
We can create innovative delegate boosting strategies which utilise cutting edge and cost effective technology. Our extensive experience includes delegate marketing campaigns for both National and International markets.
Following a consultation with your committee, we can complete work on the following;
- Marketing Action Plan
- Project Management Timelines and Critical Path.
- Develop the conference web site. There are a number of options available
