Services

We’ll start with defining your vision for your event – your big picture. From there, we’ll guide you through the choices that make that vision tangible to your participants. We’ll help you develop the theme and make the choices that make your conference memorable, enjoyable, and exciting.

We’re seasoned experts in arranging all the little things that need to be done to make your big picture clear and compelling:

• From the organization of services and suppliers…
• to the co-ordination of audio-visual and special effects…
• to food and beverage arrangements…
• plus entertainment, decor, booths, tables, and transportation…

…Delegate the job of logistics to us!

How do you deliver your conference message to your ideal attendees?

And how do you get the biggest bang for your promotional buck?

Absolute knows how to:

• Catch the attention of your best potential attendees.
• Help you build attendance
• Engage your audience
• Create a marketing plan with cross-generational appeal, using a range of media

Cost, location, size, availability, and ambiance all go into the choosing of the perfect backdrop to your event.

We develop the budget with you, then implement it. And we’ll keep your event within budget.

We’re experts at acquiring sponsorship funds.
Together or separately from your exhibit program, we know how to:

• Package your conference or event to give it sponsor-appeal.
• Get the attention of potential sponsors.
• Follow up on promises kept and ensure they are delivered.

Exhibitors mean revenue!

We’ll create an entire exhibitor program for you, often in conjunction with a sponsorship program. From the ground floor up.

The program will include a marketing package; negotiating, liaising, and contracting with exhibitors; the exhibitor manual; and managing all on-site logistics from start to finish. We handle all the arrangements you’ll need to ensure that every item is in place and operational from the opening of your show to the final closing.

Then — we create a plan to market your show all over again for the next year.

It has to be done right.

• It’s harder than it looks.
• It’s often the first impression that participants have of your conference.
• Ask us for a demonstration!

We coordinate your programs within the context of any given conference.

• We map out your program (timing is everything!)
• Innovative room setups.
• Creative session deliver.

We source ideal speakers for your conference.

We also:

• Take care of your speakers
• provide advice on every aspect of speaker preparation, including content ideas (try crowdsourcing for your keynote speaker!), contract provisions, audio-visual (easy to get this one wrong!), introductions, etc.
• arrange transportation, accommodation, and other amenities.

We’ll organize your staffing requirements in conjunction with your internal resources including the involvement of volunteers.

We organize dynamic and entertaining destination tours and companion programs. Ask for examples.

Evaluations are not really about the event you’ve just held. They’re about the one you’ll hold next year.

A good evaluation will be your blueprint for your next event.

At Absolute:

• We create the evaluation, arrange for distribution to all participants, and measure the results.
• We report to you on our findings. This is one of our major differentials. Our reports are personalized and text-based. You get hands-on, customized advice to help you understand the real impression you made and how to make your next event even better.
• Your evaluation is a giant step forward in making your next conference or event even more successful than the last.
