Choosing a Corporate Event Planner

Qualifications of a good event planner.
A good coordinator is able to accomplish the following:

1. Generate Great Ideas – You want someone who is more than a facilitator. You want someone who can come up with sound ideas about location, menu, staffing needs, sponsorship and budget that fit your market and that will help you achieve your goals.

2. Evaluate Those Ideas – Most events are iterations of several ideas. A good party planner doesn’t stay married to their idea but lets the idea evolve as they learn more about you and your needs.

3. Design and Decorate – Decor, layouts, presentation, logistics, and creativity are all part of the their responsibilities.

4. Create a Plan. Share the Plan. Work the Plan. – We’ve seen good plans that didn’t work because the planner did not let everyone know what was happening or they deviated from the plan. The devil is in the details.

5. Coordinate multiple activities – Sharing and delegating responsibilities can reduce costs and result in a great event. Big events may need committees. A good planner will make sure everyone is aware of their job and is doing it.

6. Evaluate the Event – This event should help you plan your next event. .Was it a success? Why? Why not? Document any suggestions for future use.
