The event is not about you…⁣ ⁣ ⁣ As a professional event host, I've learned that the key to a successful event is not about me.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ It’s about the event itself (its objective) and the client’s satisfaction.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ When you’re hosting an event, it's so easy to get caught up in being the centre of attraction.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ It’s easy to get overly self-focused and forget the purpose for which you’re onstage.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Why? Because the lights are on you and the spotlight can be intoxicating. ⁣ ⁣ The truth is, hosting an event, show, panel, etc is about creating an unforgettable experience for the audience and delivering on your client's vision.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ That’s why before making any decisions or taking any actions while hosting, I always ask myself:⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 'Is what I'm about to do best for the event and the people attending?'⁣ 'Will it enhance the overall experience and achieve the client's objectives?'⁣ 'Am I putting the needs of the event and the guests above my own desires as a host?'⁣ ⁣ ⁣ By asking myself these questions, I'm reminded that my role as a Host is not to seek personal glory, but to serve the event and its stakeholders.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ So, for every event I host, I keep the focus where it belongs - on the event.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #PreciousGreg #PG #EventHost #Compère #MC⁣

🎯 Planning an event? Start by understanding its purpose! Whether it’s a conference, gala, or casual happy hour, knowing the goals and theme makes planning SO much easier. 💡 The right context helps you decide everything – from venue to format! 🌟 #EventTips #TheWonderEvents

I attended one of the worst events in my life: Everywhere seemed so rowdy, the arrangement seemed like it was done as soon as the guests started arriving. Let's not talk about the catering services- they were so rude and seemed so overwhelmed. The hosts of the event were clearly frustrated by everything going on. No one present at that event would ever forget about their experience that day. And just as the event came to an end, our attention was drawn to the scene were there was a huge exchange of words between a waiter and a guest. It was all so dramatic and definitely was going to be the talk of the town for a while. But of course, for the wrong things. And I understood one thing from all that has happening. It was all a misunderstanding. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- When hosting an event, do this: -Get you an event professional/planner who understands your goal for that event. This will save you from a lot of problems that you wouldn't even happening. -Have a particular picture of how you want that event to be or you can ask the event professional to help you choose one that aligns with your goal. You can't afford to have a chaos just because you refused to stick to one of these options. You both have to agree on this. -Ensure to have the required amount of money available to give you your dream event. You can't be asking for an event that'll be the talk of the moment anytime one looks forward to hosting an event- and be pricing for $1000. You need to do your best to get the best you desire.

Where do you start in planning an event? Decide on a date? Decide on a menu? Make a guest list? NO! First step is Pre-Planning. Build your foundation before taking action. #1 step of Pre-Planning  Clarify the purpose of your event. Why are you holding this party, business meeting, conference or any other event? Be clear about your purpose. What about the purpose of Thanksgiving dinner?   I think it’s about bringing people together, family and friends, to celebrate the connections you have with them and to enjoy being together.  Gratitude is on the list, right?  What are your thoughts about the purpose for your Thanksgiving?
