Sharing a venue find hack that I used to find a hidden but perfect venue option recently. I love the phrase reverse engineering and I think it's sort of appropriate to this venue find! Brief: Corporate Christmas party, circa x 400, standing, live music 🎄 Within walking distance of London City office. Plus other details that made this brief quite specific. There were some obvious venue contenders, but nothing had that "OMG I've nailed it" feeling. I aim to get that feeling for every brief. 💗 Look at it backwards. In addition to the other, more obviously suited venues, two hotels stood out, but in each, their largest function room was just that, large enough. No wow factor, no Corporate Christmas party packages on their websites, no obvious reason to dig deeper, every reason to move on and ignore these two venues. However! Here are two HACKS for you .. Search the name of the hotel plus Christmas party (this will show up the venue's own packages if they have any, BUT IMPORTANTLY any third party companies offering joiner or exclusive use party nights). Speak to your contact at the hotel/venues and ask if there are any event management companies offering joiner or exclusive use party nights at their venue. Or just drop me a line ... I specialise in venue’s for events. Drop me details of what you’re looking for, it can be basic or bold, I really don’t mind. 📩 helen@mdem.co.uk ☎ 07831 455206 (call, text or WhatsApp is fine) website: www.mdem.co.uk #corporateevents #events #conferences #meetings #christmas2024 #pa #ea #hr #internalcomms #hack #gettingthingsdone #howto

About us
Are you a busy Internal Comms, Corporate Event Manager, HR professional, EA or PA with conferences, events, meetings or training to organise? Would it help to get just one task off you desk? Would you like to … * keep control of the venue search but have it done for you * have a full proposal land in your inbox with ALL the information you need * have imagery, capacity information * rates negotiated and provisional holds secured * site visits arranged for you, logically organised to suit your diary * guideline costs so you can compare like with like AND a run down of venues that would be suitable for your event but don't have availability on the dates you need. Better than that, the reason why they're not available in case your event brief or dates change (or can be changed to suit that perfect venue). AND, if your brief does change, one phone call or one email is all you need to have the venue proposal re-worked. Delegate the work but not the fun ... it's your event and always will be but the leg work that takes up your valuable time can be done while you concentrate on other tasks. How about a wild card venue option or two? How about including that perfect venue that is just a tad off brief .. just for the fun or it, you never know, so let's get creative too. Wouldn't it be good to have someone else negotiate rates and enhance the package inclusions for you? How about having another set of eyes look over the venue contract, negotiate and amend it to suit YOUR needs? Venue research is ALL I do, day in and day out, it's a real passion. The contract stays with you, the corporate. The contract is between you and the venue. AND how about if I said you could get all this for FREE. As an industry recognised agent our payment comes from the venue in the form of a commission fee which is inbuilt into the rates the venue quotes irrespective of whether you approach the venue direct or via me, it's a WIN / WIN in the proper sense of the phrase.

Although we organise corporate events of all kinds (venue find specialist) and not individual experiences, there are more and more hotels offering ... courses for individuals 🎈 bookable experiences 🍽 cookery lessons 👨🍳 things to learn and do 📽 ways to expand your mind 👩🏫 calm your body 🧘♂️ So, we've come up with a list including Jazz music events, watercolour painting, dining experiences and Wim Hof Method experience .... It's not exhaustive, just a handful of nice things I thought I'd share.

We all love arranging coach transfers (well I do 😍) but sometimes, when a venue has activities on-site it's a bit of a bonus 🤩 #personalassistant #executiveassistant #meetings #conference #event
No Coach in Sight.
