Ep85 Creating enviable events that turn attendees into ambassadors, with Melissa Park - Part 2

Season 1 Episode 85

Creating incredible events will turn attendees into your ambassadors. But professional event planning can also be quite the emotional journey.  Not only do you need to be on top of your game, coming up continually with unique and inspiring ideas because cookie cutter approaches no longer work, you need to make sure you're making the right decisions for your own health to avoid burnout and for your business.

Her awards and recognitions include 2020 & 2021’s The BizBash 500: Must Know Event Profs in the U.S., 2020’s 25 Young Event Pros to Watch (Special Events) and 2010 Australian Events Awards’ Young Achiever of the Year .

Quotes from this episode:

"At the end of the day,  if you produce a really good event, every attendee will turn into an ambassador for your show... It's the easiest way to grow and scale an event."

"Nothing's ever random, but things just do happen to appear or opportunities present themselves when you've got the space and the capacity to take them on."
