Top Tricks and tips for a successful Online Event!

EventWise NI have been fortunate enough to be able to facilitate online events since Covid hit our industry last March.  We have learned A LOT of tips, tricks and things to avoid along the way.

EventWise NI utilize a 3-step system – Pre, During and Post Event Management. This is key to a successful event, because skipping any one of these steps will compromise the quality and consistency your attendees receive, as well as the success rate of future events.

For example, without a thorough Pre-event to-do list, some attendees might not receive that all important Zoom link. Or if your speaker’s internet connection isn’t means tested before the event, their sound/video quality might be compromised during your event and that spells disaster.

During your event, it is essential to have a seamless transition between speakers sharing their screens, breakout rooms, chat questions and whiteboard use, otherwise your professionalism and the professionalism of your company will be in question.

Finally, most people forget about the importance of a post-event evaluation and this is a big mistake. How else can you learn about what your attendees liked and, more importantly, disliked so that your company’s future events can improve?
