Who's enjoying our tips and tricks on how to organize a great user conference? 🙌 We will continue to break down our guide over the following weeks. Post 4/10 today covers how to collaborate with key stakeholders when putting together your user conference. Our guide offers three simple tips for event marketers to ensure they have the full backing of their organization prior to hosting their user conferences: 1. Overcome resistance with trust and communication: Build buy-in by understanding the root of resistance and fostering open dialogue. 🗣️ 2. Align event goals: Define your event's purpose and target audience, then sync with each department to ensure their goals are integrated into your planning. 🎯 3. Get buy-in from your customer success team: Leverage existing customer relationships to drive attendance and build trust, showcasing real-life experiences to strengthen your event’s impact. 🤝 (Also, shoutout to Varun Singh of Rocketlane for sharing insights on how many people are involved in pulling together great events at Rocketlane!)

Back again, with another tip from our “Guide to Organizing your First User Conference" Post 3/10, covers another critical tip from our guide. How do you pick a location & how do you pick a date for your user conference? Simple logistical things to figure out, but both extremely important in delivering a great user conference. Here are some tips from  our guide to take on board: 📅 Date: Secure your date 6-8 months in advance. For annual events, aim for a four-week buffer around last year’s date (e.g., if last year was July 1st, aim for early June or August). 📍 Location: Consider cost, geographical location, and time of year. Brainstorm potential venues with key stakeholders (VP of Marketing, Head of Finance, CEO, etc.). Make your decision at least 6 months ahead, factoring in city accessibility, facilities, and weather conditions.

Back again with post 2/10 as we continue to break down our "Ultimate Guide to Organizing Your First User Conference"! Let's dive into two more critical steps in the pre-event planning phase and see how they connect. Identify Your Target Audience: Start by understanding who your event is for. Create detailed audience personas to tailor your content and marketing efforts effectively. Knowing your audience helps craft a compelling agenda that meets their needs and interests. (Check out the checklist in the image for a clearer outline on how to map your target audience, and read the full guide for more helpful resources like it 😉 ) Decide on Agency Involvement: With your audience in mind, evaluate if you need an event planning agency. Consider factors like event complexity, internal resources, and budget. An agency can bring expertise and lighten your team’s workload, but ensure the benefits outweigh the costs.

We're breaking down our comprehensive "Ultimate Guide to Organizing Your First User Conference" into a series of posts! Here is post 1/10 🙌 ! Organizing a user conference involves three main stages: pre-event, during the event, and post-event. Let's dive into the first few steps you need to pay attention to in your pre-event planning! Start with an Event Brief: This foundational document outlines your mission, goals, and key elements. Keep it updated with evolving details and share it with your internal team. As the event nears, it will serve as a FAQ document to address team questions. Plan Your Budget: Begin your budget planning early. For internal buy-in, back your request with data showing pipeline impact from previous events. If this is your first conference, seek insights from peers on their first-year results, such as attendance numbers, ROI multipliers, and ticket pricing.
