Live events are becoming increasingly important to businesses. Not only do they provide the business with a way to establish a face-to-face connection with important business contacts and members of the business’s target market, but they’re also an excellent source of organic promotion. The list of benefits businesses experience from either hosting or attending a live event include:

  • Developing and strengthening your business’s interpersonal relationship
  • Establishing themselves as industry leaders
  • Building customer loyalty
  • Heightened visibility
  • Improved relations with the community
  • Boosting sales/revenue
  • Garnering good press
  • Helping build brand recognition

Don’t shy away from the idea of putting together a live event because you’re afraid the outcome won’t justify the stress and effort of creating and hosting an event. However, the numbers indicate that live events often have the best ROI of any marketing efforts. Data gathered by Statisa indicates that 44% of marketers who put together live events generated a 3:1 ROI. During 2018, many businesses reported that live event marketing proved to be their second most effective form of marketing. SEO came in first. 80% of the businesses polled by the Event Marketing 2018 Benchmarks and Trends report stated that they felt live events played a crucial role in their marketing strategy.

Effectiveness of Live Events

The effectiveness of live event marketing has prompted businesses in the United States to devote more of their marketing budget to live events. Statisa reported that U.S. corporations intend to spend:

  • 24% more on live product launches
  • 19% more on live VIP events
  • 54% more on media events

74% of customers report that attending a branded live event increased the odds that they’d purchase a product from the company.
