Why are we doing this webinar?
● Check-in was our biggest issue.
Why tech is important to The GRAMMYs high profile events
● The team needed to mitigate issues quickly, in real-time.
● Technology not only makes your job easier, it makes you look more professional and it’s an entire extra layer of security that every event needs.
● Needed to set a standard in ticketing, which we didn’t have (yet).
● Ticketing and check-in go hand-in-hand.
From paper to digital Check-In
● Paper check-in was difficult, especially when you’re dealing with celebrities who might have an alias.
● Needed a solution that was easy to implement and train a staff as well as a group of volunteers.
● Check-in was historically manual, nothing was automated
● Hire the right people to help you with your event.
● Keep in mind: it’s hard work and you’ve put in the hours. Don’t panic in the event of a setback!
● You’re in good hands with the technology you’re using!
