Here's How to Revamp Your Live Event Strategy 🎡
Our team has just returned from a wild trip to Bonnaroo in partnership with a brand client, and according to our notes, it involved “14 hours of group texting creators, meeting, chasing, knocking on doors, and waiting out storms!”
It all looks like fun and games, but I’ll let you in on a little secret: event marketing with influencers takes a LOT of work. You can’t just hire splashy names for big events without a plan, unless you want to run the risk of ineffective brand spend — or even negative consumer backlash.
For instance, how about the high-profile creators hired for Coachella who don’t even bother to attend the actual festival?
Or the way Tarte Cosmetics was criticized for its extravagant Dubai trips after being accused of treating a Black creator poorly on a separate Miami Grand Prix auto-racing event?
Effectively planning influencer marketing at a live event goes beyond setting goals, picking creators, and settling budgets. It's crucial to manage the entire process, including detailed coordination, impactful event design, smart content strategy, and precise success tracking.
Just a few of the details we help manage with our own hands-on approach:

I feel like I shouldn’t have to add “don’t be a classist or racist jerk” but …. let’s just say it’s important that the people running ANY kind of influencer event understand and appreciate the diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences of the influencers (and their audiences).
The success of your event depends on the right strategy, precise execution, and genuine connections, and our team is ready to help you navigate every detail. To learn more about our comprehensive approach to live event marketing, get in touch with us or hit reply to this email with any questions!
