Raise your hand if you’ve attended a virtual event of some kind over the past few months (yes, that can include virtual happy hours).
*almost everyone raises their hand*
A large percentage of people have attended some type of virtual event, whether it be a conference, networking event, webinar, or just a low-key team happy hour. At times you may feel like you have no other option, but it’s important to note for the future the advantages of having a virtual event. Yes, there were even pros to it pre-coronavirus.
- Cost Effective
This refers to both the planner’s side and the client’s side. Having a virtual event reduces costs for the planner tremendously. Imagine not having to budget in a venue or catering. All that virtual events really have to budget for are the platform, speakers, and promotion. Events just became a lot more do-able.
2. More Scalable
Event hosts are able to expand their reach by having a virtual event. They are not limited to a venue’s specific capacity and do not lose attendees based on travel. It allows larger events to happen for less money. That is music to our ears.
3. Environmentally Friendly
