Plan your campaignEvent concept and major themes decided

Build Initial awareness by incorporating top line details in existing emails such as your regular newsletters.

Date and location fixed Begin dedicated email campaigns and use of early booking incentives

Speakers confirmed Send detail of speakers, their credentials, why they should be listened to and title of their sessions

Detail agenda and session takeaways decided

Specific details of what attendees will learn by attending. For webinars and virtual events offer to send a recording to people who register but are unable to attend live

Warm prospects extra nudge Extra email and incentive to nudge people who clicked previously and haven’t booked yet

Notable brands attending Social proof. The brands and job roles of people attending, so that others can identify themselves as in the same peer group.

Urgency. Getting close, last places and last call

Urgency to drive action for those still undecided. For virtual and online events last call can be as close a few hours before.
