1.000.000 of events IT’S A BUYER’S MARKET
Event MarkeNng, without markeHng the event
The future is…
You’ll no longer market your way to a product sale, you’ll now facilitate the process that leads to it.
Content + People = Content MarkeNng
All content is now digital but most conferences are not
Videos Photos PresentaNon Reports Documents
Content is shared by the crowd, speakers, organizers… WHERE?
You need to aggregate, structure and facilitate content markeNng
That’s what Conferize does for you automaNcally
Content + People = Content MarkeNng
Maybe it even goes VIRAL
Social based plahorms are the best to engage people and facilitate content markeNng
