Events aren’t just about the moment—they’re about the momentum. With 45% of marketers ranking events as their #1 lead source for 2025, it’s time to think beyond the stage. The true ROI lies in leveraging your speakers as a year-round content engine. Here's how: ✅ Repurpose speaker sessions into social media clips, blogs, and thought leadership videos. ✅ Boost SEO by turning session transcripts into keyword-rich blogs. ✅ Personalize campaigns using speaker insights to engage key accounts. ✅ Amplify reach with speakers acting as micro-influencers across their networks. 💡 Insight: Collaborating with speakers doesn’t just drive engagement—it builds trust, authority, and long-term impact for your brand. ➡️ Swipe through for stats, tips, and actionable insights on unlocking the power of your speakers to maximize event ROI in 2025. #EventMarketing #EventContent #SEO #SpeakerManagement #EventTech #SpeakerCRM #ABMStrategy

Data is everywhere. And yet, most of it is ignored. Why? Because numbers don’t move people—stories do. Think about the last time a speaker truly captivated you. Was it their slides filled with charts? Or was it the story they told that made you feel something? Transformation doesn’t happen through information alone. It happens when a speaker weaves facts into a narrative that sticks—when they connect, inspire, and make their message unforgettable. In the world of event content, the job is to empower speakers to go beyond the data and tell stories that resonate. Want to hear how it’s done? Check out our full conversation with Rachel Morrissey, Head of Content at Money20/20 where we explore the art of storytelling in events and how it transforms both speakers and audiences alike. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/ehfEBQHh #EventContent #SpeakerManagement #StoryTelling #EventProfs

🎤 Empowering Speakers = Amplifying Event Success 🎥 Most speakers don’t jump at the chance to share generic event promo materials. Why? Because it often feels like they’re promoting the event at the expense of providing value to their own audience. But here’s the game-changer: Clips. As Neil Patel put it in our recent SESSION interview: "The easiest, most helpful assets for speakers? Clips. It's clips more than anything else." Short, shareable video snippets—whether from webinars, pre-recorded discussions, or event highlights—allow speakers to provide educational and engaging content that resonates with their audience. This way, they feel like collaborators, not just promoters. It’s a win-win: Speakers share content they’re proud of, and your event gets amplified to the right audience. 🤝 Are you providing your speakers with the tools to succeed? Let’s start creating content that drives real value. Want to see the full conversation? click the link 👉 https://lnkd.in/eHyk3Q2n #EventMarketing #SpeakerEngagement #ContentStrategy #NeilPatel
