Attendee journey mapping   

Human-driven connections are the focus of our approach. We see attendees as individuals with different goals and preferences. Our event strategists always ask: What do you want participants to think, feel and do at each phase of the event? 

Our event design experts map multiple touchpoints in pre-event, on site and post-event phases to personalize the experience. 

  • Audience segmentation by value graphics and demographics  
  • Pre-event quizzes   
  • A variety of optional activities 

Journey mapping merges audience research and agenda planning to achieve higher attendee engagement

Brand creative and messaging strategy 

A focused creative strategy translates your business problem into a compelling storyline. We weave your key message throughout the experience, ensuring it captivates and guides the attendee experience. Through active participation, audiences take away more than a tagline; they become brand ambassadors eager to share. Our creative team earns audience attention by:    

  • Generating big ideas that increase your brand awareness 
  • Crafting cohesive content that resonates (website, event communications, videos, gifting, etc.) 
  • Coaching speakers to deliver engaging messages  
  • Taking a mixed-media marketing approach to reach attendees where they are

Event analytics 

When used correctly, data eliminates any guesswork. We analyze data from mobile apps, surveys, polling, registration and more to develop audience acquisition and segmentation strategies. The result? Personalized experiences your attendees crave, especially as they’re evaluating if an event is “worth it.”  

Interactive learning  

Our scalable breakout sessions use brain science by challenging attendees to design and test solutions that help them remember their learnings all year. We create immersive, impactful sessions that are stimulating, motivating and fun: 

  • Gamified breakouts 
  • Hands-on hackathons and escape rooms 
  • Self-directed tools like eLearning modules and AR/VR experiences

5% of corporate employees are more engaged when gamification solutions are applied to their workplace.
