Stagnaro Strategic Marketing has spent many years assisting clients in event marketing. After each event we ask our team – how did we do? It’s oftentimes a tough question to answer. If ticket sales increased year over year – what can that be attributed to? Was it the extra print marketing? The digital marketing? The social media? Was the event bigger? Could it be word of mouth? And so on. Adding metrics to the event planning is the key for seeing a 360 degree view of the results at the end of the process. MarketingProfs just published a great article that teaches how to do just that.
