Wondering if the event's industry is right for you? Read Meaghan Maybee's interview with I Need A Speaker on how to get started as an event professional. Article Link: https://lnkd.in/emiGriJc #meetingprofs #eventsindustry #meetingsandevents
Things are about to get a little mushy-gushy... 😂💕 First, the I Need A Speaker team recently interviewed me for their blog all about how to get started in the events industry! 😍 I can't thank Autumn Bohner enough for helping make this awesome Q&A happen. ARTICLE LINK: [Check out the comments! ⬇️⬇️⬇️] Also, I wanted to give some insight into why I agreed to do this article: Nearly five years ago, I stepped into events at pc/nametag. Let me tell ya, I have never met a group of people more passionate, dedicated, and driven. I quickly learned that event planners don’t just organize meetings; they create experiences, build connections, and bring people together. What I love most about this industry? ✨ The Creativity: I love the idea of designing moments that make people say, “Wow, I’ll never forget this.” ✨ The Resilience: The ability to realize that things can (and will) go wrong, but you have the power to turn challenges into solutions. ✨ The Community: I have joined an industry full of people who are constantly learning, adapting, and supporting one another. While all that is fine and dandy, I also have to be honest: Event planning isn’t always easy. 😥 It’s consistently ranked as one of the most stressful jobs, and new professionals often face pushback on fresh ideas. But persistence is key. The best planners don’t just follow trends—they SHAPE them. They learn from their setbacks and find ways to make every event better than the last. If you’re just starting out, my advice? ✅ Get comfortable with the unexpected. No event goes 100% as planned, and that’s okay! Adaptability is your superpower. ✅ Lean into networking. Say yes to coffee chats, send that LinkedIn message, and don’t be afraid to introduce yourself at events. ✅ Be bold with your ideas. Change happens because someone dares to do something different. The events industry is full of opportunity, and if you’re thinking about stepping in, I say go for it. You never know where it might take you. What’s one lesson you’ve learned from working in events? Drop it in the comments. I'd love to hear! ⬇️ #eventprofs #eventindustry #careergrowth #contentmarketing

🌠 SLAY YOUR EVENT'S SOCIAL MEDIA GAME IN 2025 🌠 Using social media effectively isn’t always as easy as it seems—we get it. To help you cut through the noise and connect with the right audience, here are five strategies to boost engagement: 1️⃣ Develop a unique brand voice – Ditch the corporate jargon! Brands like Kwik Trip, Inc. and Scrub Daddy, Inc. have mastered the art of authenticity. Whether it’s humor, storytelling, or real-time engagement, find a voice that resonates with your audience. 2️⃣ Focus on the right platforms – You don’t need to be everywhere! Research where your audience spends the most time and tailor your content accordingly. TikTok might be great for Gen Z, while LinkedIn is better for B2B connections. 3️⃣ Share valuable content (not just promotions!) – Mix in educational resources, industry insights, and user-generated content. Give people a reason to engage beyond just buying. 4️⃣ Leverage groups – With organic reach declining, Facebook and LinkedIn groups are a great way to build community. Create a space for your audience to connect, share ideas, and engage with your brand naturally. 5️⃣ Use paid ads strategically – Social media platforms prioritize ads over organic posts. Invest in targeted promotions and retargeting campaigns to reach the right people at the right time. Social media success takes time, but with the right approach, you can grow a loyal and engaged following.❤️ Which of these strategies do you use the most? Let’s chat in the comments! ⬇️ #socialmediamarketing #socialmedia #marketing #strategy #marketingtips
