Green Your Conference

What can we do for you?


Any or all of the following:


  • Convene knowledgeable advisors to create conference content of the highest quality. Either a formal advisory board or an informal group of advisors. At an in-person gathering, or by telephone and email.
  • Develop the most effective conference agenda with the maximal combination of keynotes, solo speakers, panel discussions, interviews, roundtable discussions, etc.
  • Recruit speakers. Identify the very best choices to deliver the very best information. Invite them, woo them/their PR reps, confirm them, and personally manage them through the final thank-you letter.
  • Nurture long-lasting professional relationships: with speakers, advisors, public relations firms, user groups, vendors, other key industry contacts.
  • Strategize every aspect of conference details – pre-show, onsite, post-show.
  • Write, edit, proofread -- promotional copy, press releases, speaker guidelines, proceedings manuals, more.
  • Organize people, places, events. We’re good at bringing disparate elements together, whether from around a company or from around the world.
  • Quality-control every element of a conference, most especially ensuring that speakers deliver the content promised to the audience.
  • Communicate.  Our written and oral skills are excellent, and we’re as comfortable establishing relationships on the phone or via e-mail as we are meeting face-to-face.
  • Facilitate.  We’re particularly skilled at streamlining and simplifying unnecessarily complicated documents, guidelines, etc., and reducing them to easy-to-follow steps – for staff or speakers or both.
  • Multi-task.  We typically work on at least three conferences simultaneously.
  • Outreach. Our enthusiasm tends to get people interested, involved, and activated.
  • Provide ultimate flexibility.  We can do something as complex as creating, directing, and implementing an entire program from concept to completion – or jump in at a moment’s notice to recruit high-quality speakers to replace last-minute cancellations.
