Every event planner knows the importance of attendee engagement both, before and after the event. It is said because they are the main asset of any event to be successful or a failure.

We have compiled some basic ways through which you can get your attendees attention before and after the event. Have a look at some of them.

Never miss the Social Media

Whenever you want to promote your event and create event engagement, never miss the social media. On social media you need to post:

  1. Customized and engaging images
  2. Viral videos
  3. Tell your attendees if any celebrity is visiting your event etc.

In short, just give them a reason to share your stuff on their profiles. Also, get them involved in the discussion using your event’s hashtags or inviting them to comment on your posts.

So, if you want to promote your event before the big day, but you are ignoring social media, you are failing your event on purpose.

Never Ignore Sending Emails

Sending emails to your respective clients is important, but don’t just send the emails in order to create hype, as it can end up in spam. The better idea to create engagement via emails, is sending details of your event to your attendees, regarding speakers, event agenda etc.

Run Active Polls on Social Media

Running pols on social media and asking attendees regarding their preferences is a good idea to create a better level of engagement. When you will ask your attendees regarding their preferences and likes, they will feel authorized and respected. This act will also force them to visit your event in one way or another. It’s a thing that people like to visit places where they are made to feel honored and respected.

Creating Engagement after the Event

Event managers, it’s important not to lose the interest and engagement of attendees even after the event comes to an end. It’s usually the time when you exploit the engagement that you established before and during the event, as this will help you while arranging your next event properly and with less effort.

Send emails to your attendees with a thankyou note. Remember, not to add any event or promotion related stuff to your emails. However, you can definitely add some fun moments of your event which can bring smiles to the faces of your attendees, and create a good image regarding your future events to come.

Ask for Event Feedback:

It’s important to ask for feedback regarding what your attendees liked the event and what they disliked. This act will help you to improve on the things, in which you are lacking, and make yourself market leaders in the things, in which you lead.

Share Video & Photos on Social Media

To make people involved in the event, post videos and albums regarding your event on your social media platforms. This will make your attendees visit your page, even after the event too.
