AREAS OF EXPERTISE

Conference organizers want to get more value from their speaker investment, especially when it comes to leveraging content marke2ng and maximizing sponsors’ return on investment.

• Two-‐fi(hs ask speakers to write an ar3cle or be interviewed; par3cipate in a pre-‐mee3ng online conversa3on via LinkedIn, Twi?er or another avenue; or record a promo3onal video.

• About a quarter ask their speakers to write a post for their organiza3on’s or mee3ng’s blog, or present or facilitate a pre-‐ or post-‐mee3ng Webinar.

Organiza2ons use professional speakers more and spend more. Professional speaker budgets between $5,000 and $20,000 were most common, reported by 23.2 percent of respondents, with the $30,001-‐to-‐$50,000 and more-‐than-‐$100,000 op2ons tying for a close second, with 20.4 percent each.

Organiza2ons that want to use their educa2on to differen2ate themselves, need a senior educa2on professional on the execu2ve team. Most organiza2ons list educa2on as their primary mission, but don’t have a top-‐ranking person involved with their high-‐level educa2on strategy.

Hiring decisions are shiMing from the C-‐suite to the educa2on department.

What’s in a name? Maybe not that much. 28.3 percent of respondents believe a “big name” speaker is very or extremely important for aRrac2ng registrants.

While moving to mobile and online evalua2ons appeals to mee2ng planners for beRer and more 2mely analy2cs, the old tac2c of puSng a piece of paper on each chair or in the aRendee packet s2ll tends to result in beRer comple2on rates. To reverse this trend, speakers should be coached to bake in 2me for aRendees to complete the evalua2on during the last five minutes of the session

More and more organiza2ons will embrace a strategy of content capture with scheduled replays, with slower growth in live streaming.

Sponsorship is on the rise. Over 27 percent of organiza2ons use sponsorship more than over the past two years. Exhibitors want increasingly to be associated with thought leadership.

Mul2ple-‐speaker sessions are popular, in a panel or combined mini-‐sessions approach.
