There are a few things to consider for the marketing of your next event or fundraiser. And though you’ve landed the perfect venue and hired the best vendors, all your planning will be wasted if your event is not well announced. So, be sure that potential guests are properly invited! In consideration of your marketing, ask yourself these questions:[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
Who is in charge of your marketing?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Consider the role of your event’s marketer. Is this person a volunteer? Are they likely to stick around- making their efforts consistent and effective? The needs of your event may vary depending on its type and your approach. Take note of your plans for the preparation of your event and the message you’d like to leave with your guests. And then consider if these align with the capabilities of your appointed marketing person. Make sure that your event’s marketing is in good hands.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
Where is your audience and how do you reach them?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Social media as well as paid and organic advertising is your best bet for reaching your audience. These have proved most successful in our experience in marketing for the Redlands Octoberfest, the Redlands Touch-A-Truck and other major non-profit events in Redlands. Facebook and Instagram, in particular, are two of the best ways to market your event. If you stay active on these sites and implement forms of paid advertising, you’re likely to see increased audience engagement. You can even get creative in reaching your audience. Consider hosting a contest to win tickets. This will boost awareness and cause excitement for your event![/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
