Hiring an Event Manager makes $ense – Breeze Bites

For any employer the key factor in organising any event is making sure that costs are kept down. This is what the boss will tell you. “Go ahead, organize the event, just make sure you don’t spend over the budget”. In theory it makes sense to do it in house. You don’t have to hire an Events Management company, pay for extra services and you get to organise the event as you see fit.

Yes it is possible do organise your event in house, however it may bring in a lower result, tire your staff out and can lack the creativity and flare an Events Manager can bring to your event. Hiring an Events Management company will bring the wow factor and breathe life into a potentially boring event.  Here’s why you need to hire an Events Manager.

Event Managers are dedicated to your event

If you’re the Office Manager generally the event planning lies with you and there’s nothing worse than doing all the organising and being too stressed to enjoy it. Not to mention they have their own jobs and deadlines to meet. Events are put on to motivate, encourage and congratulate staff, not add extra stress and tire them out. With this in mind the dedication directed towards the event planning will be significantly lower. Juggling a gala dinner or conference and their own responsibilities could be a challenge.

Not only can an Event Manager bring the za za zoo to your event they will make money by organising your event. By this I mean there is nothing more important to them except the organisation and success of your event, leaving your employees to do their jobs with no distractions.

They have connections

This is the single most important reason why you should hire an Event Manager – they know people who can get stuff and get stuff done. This will guarantee that your event will be to the highest possible standards. Event Managers can do deals on everything as they use their trusted suppliers over and over for each event, ensuring you’re getting the best possible price. If you were to go it alone there is now way you would get the savings!

Event Managers promote your event

Promoting an event is very difficult, way more difficult than you might think – take it from a professional. Your event can be a total failure if you don’t get people to attend, which harks back to promotional marketing. Event Managers know exactly what has to be done in order to guarantee the success of your event, due to the fact that they know how to properly promote them.  Everything from social media, invites, adverts and other online promotional channels.

Hire a professional – it’s worth it in the long run.
