Description

Are you hosting an event this year? If not, you should consider doing so. (Within the bounds of safety, of course.)On this week’s episode I talked with Dave Jensen, the CEO of Encompass Events Group. Their company helps nonprofit organizations put on live hybrid and remote events. They offer support and production services to help organizations knock their events out of the park. And listen—if you don’t know how to run an online or hybrid event, but want to, then this is the show for you. Dave and I go over a lot of great stuff, from how to start your first online event to how to make your hybrid events engaging. Recently, I had the pleasure of doing a virtual tour of Dave’s studio. Encompass Events Group has done a great job of adapting to the online world of events and they really have the skills to help you up your online or hybrid event game. I think there are two main takeaways from this episode. First, flip the script: make your audience the main attraction at the event. Get them participating or highlight them to make things feel like “not just another Zoom call.” Secondly, do something. Even if you host just a small event, it can help you stay relevant to your stakeholders and front-of-mind. You are going to love this episode. Link: Compass Event GroupMobileCauseAsk: Just do something. Even if it's a small event and 100% online, do something to remain relevant.
