Road Show
A publishing franchise company launched
its inaugural National Training Programme in a series
of three, round-robin conferences, over a six-month period.
Fifteen training personnel travelled the country conducting
the conferences for a participating audience of 40-70
delegates.
Our brief included a fixed date
itinerary, venue, accommodation and logistics co-ordination.

Online Event identified significant errors
in some venues' accounting and recovered $15,490 for the
client. |

Convention
A world-wide music society held their annual convention
in Australia for 1,500 delegates.

venues, co-ordinate Partner Programmes, and provide retail
photographic coverage for the event.

Relationship
Marketing Events
A phone communications company lamented at not having
enough time in front of specific prospects at certain
times of the year.
Our brief was to find a mechanism to put the company in
front of thier prospective clients, in a relaxed atmosphere. |

Solution
Online Events discovered that many of the targeted prospects
liked fishing trips.
On behalf of the client, we invited 15 guests on a half-day,
fully catered, fishing cruise, and ensured that there
were at least four existing happy (telephony) customers
to share their positive experiences with that company.
The result: $200,000 in telephone sales!

hotels in capital cities.

but still need to be close by.
Our brief is to source and manage alternative accommodation
within a range of price points.

Solution

preferred geographic distance, price range and star rating.
Booking options are included in the organisation's conference
material, and a dedicated page on online events' website.
