Procurement Leaders at the forefront of event engagement

This standard of customer engagement is not easily achieved, needing a huge commitment and collaboration from the whole company - from events, editorial and digital teams as well as marketing and sales teams to communicate the information with clients.

There’s a lot of work behind the scenes from the editorial and marketing teams to provide the topical content for attendees beforehand to whet their appetite to the live talks.

During the event, there’s a well-drilled content team to live blog, share tips on twitter and capture the essence of the talks. In between main speaker sessions, there’s a hive of activity going on to write up the talks and provide key takeaways for the day and the digital team are supporting this whole process throughout - to build the site, process the video, upload presentations and manage the technology requirements.

This level of engagement surpasses any event I have attended and to me, is a great marker for outstanding customer experience and ultimately, membership retention for Procurement Leaders.
