EVENT WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT

STARTUP ELITE

Navigation: Navigation can make or break a website especially for websites with many pages. Simplify navigation, make it intuitive and use a drop-down menu if necessary.

Branding: The branding throughout the website needs to be consistent. Inconsistent visual communication creates a negative association for your company.

Content: Content is king. While a good website has a lot of content you need to make sure that it is presented in small digestible formats written in a warm and welcoming tone.

Trust: A well placed video, featured attendee testimonials, and a lot of “More Information” links establishes the type of trust that gets people to take action and buy their tickets for your next event.

DESIGN

DES

IGN

A website with great features will drive traffic but without the modern and user-friendly design the conversion will significantly underperform.

SOCIAL MEDIA EVENT STRATEGY

As you promote your event through social media channels it is important to modify the language and tactics over time to keep the message from going stale.

- Create a captivating message that gets people to act now/perform a desirable action.- Get people excited about the event by teasing them with what they can expect. - Inform attendees early on about any event hashtags you plan on using. - Implement multiple pre-event objectives such as capturing new emails. - Modify not just the language but the graphics that you use to stay interesting.

Presentation for Pan African Global Trade & Investment Conference STARTUP ELITE

1. Content that reminds us that life is short.

2. Content that reminds us that dreams can come true.

3. Content that gives us faith to believe for bigger things.

4. Content that reminds us that we matter.

5. Content that has unexpected twists.

6. Content that tells us a story.

7. Content that inspires us to take action.

8. Content that confirms our assumptions.

9. Content that challenges our assumptions.

10. Content that educates while entertaining us.

11. Content where David defeats Goliath.

12. Content that makes us laugh or smile.

13. Content that reveals secrets.

14. Content that surprises us.

SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT MARKETING TACTICS

Once you 1) understand your audience, 2) have developed a content market strategy, and 3) created a subscription model you’ll need to 4) identify which tactic will be most effective for your company.

Tactics that have statistically proven to generate the largest return on investment (ROI):

• Articles

• Video

• White Papers

• Photos

• Infographics

Presentation for Pan African Global Trade & Investment Conference STARTUP ELITE

2. Articles

3. eNewsletters

4. Blogs

5. In-Person Events

6. Case Studies

7. Videos

8. White Papers

CONTENT MARKETING TACTICS EXAMPLES:

SOCIAL MEDIA EDITORIAL CALENDAR

Your Editorial Calendar is essentially your production and delivery schedule in one sheet. In that capacity it’s a planning document that gives you a plan of attack. It adds value in the following ways:

- Provide a place to generate post ideas and key topics. - Assign writing and other editorial tasks to key members of the team. - Create a publishing schedule that helps you maintain a consistent presence. - Visualize your marketing strategy in a way that everyone can understand. - Act as a communication point to the team members.

If you don’t have an editorial calendar, your content marketing will become ad hoc rather than strategic. So have one, even if you stray away from it often.

CONTENT PRODUCTION EMAIL INTERVIEWS

VALUE OF EMAIL INTERVIEWS - Depending on the type of questions that are asked the interview may have a very long shelf life.- This type of content is in high demand from the people that are being interviewed and their followers.- It is highly social content that is likely to be shared and receive a great amount of engagement. - This content type can be scalable, it’s very efficiently produced and brings effective results. - It is one of the most cost-effective methods to build up brand value and reputation.- The unique ability to start building real relationships with very powerful/influential people. - Email interviews allows you to create a lot of spin-off content such as interview quote graphics.

COMMON MISTAKES IN DOING EMAIL INTERVIEWS - Interviewing everyone. In order to add brand value you need to be interviewing people that are known.- Asking all the same questions. If all the questions are literally the same the interview loses value and admiration. - Completely switching over. A digital magazine needs to have a content mix that goes beyond just interviews. - Not doing your homework. You need to research the people you are interviewing to be able to ask good questions. - Too casual approach. Have a structured process about approaching and following up with people about interviews.

DIGITAL PR STRATEGY

- Growing your digital footprint by publishing repurposed content on multiple online platforms.

- Expanding media relations to include bloggers as well as social media influencers.

- Launching internal C-Level personal branding initiatives to indirectly grow brand value for the organization.

- Implement measurement tools to easily track all earned media and progress towards milestone goals.

- Leveraging all things digital to support the traditional PR initiatives.

EVENT SPONSORS AND EXHIBITORS

EVENT SPONSORS & EXHIBITORS

HOW TO GET SPONSORS / EXHIBITORS?

1. Define who your audience is because sending “blind” proposals usually does not work and will in fact hurt your brand image.

2. Determine your sponsorship levels and how many sponsors you will need/want. Based on this number project how many contacts you will need in your database.

3. Launch sales efforts by making lots of phone calls, writing e-mails and most importantly doing a lot of good follow-ups.

4. Be relentless. If they don’t want to become sponsors then ask them to be exhibitors. If they want to be neither then offer them complimentary tickets to check out the event and maybe become sponsors next time.

5. Give your sponsors / exhibitors lots and lots of publicity. This will be part of your comprehensive content marketing strategy that includes giving them a shout-out on your social media, featuring them on your event blog etc.

6. Build a relationship. Make sure that they are happy with the sponsorship and participation in the event, ask for feedback to improve the next event and make them an ongoing partner.

EVENT SPONSORS & EXHIBITORS

COMMON MISTAKES IN SOLICITING SPONSORSHIPS

Donation-ApproachEvent sponsorships are not philanthropy. You needto use a sales-approach in which you emphasize realvalue instead of participation.

Going After EveryoneYou don’t have the resources to go after everyone. Do your homework and focus on a targeted market with more effort.

Inexperienced Sales PeopleNot only are inexperienced sales people ineffectivein securing sponsorships but they will potentially ruin your event’s reputation.

STARTUP ELITE

One-Size-Fits-All Approach Sending the same email to 1,000 businesses will take more time and bring less results than being specific and customizing the proposal for each business.

Waiting Too LongTiming is everything. The larger the corporation the longer the process may take. You need to solicit sponsors 6-12 months in advanced.

Unprofessional PresentationYou are pitching sponsorships with one-pagers and you don’t have a website or any other marketing materials to show since they are all still under construction.

CORPORATE BRANDING | LOGO DESIGN

STARTUP ELITE

LOGO DESIGN BEST PRACTICES

Simplicity: Keep the logo simple so that it becomes easier recognizable when scaled up or down in size.

Color: Limit the use of color to no more than tree. Colors evoke different emotions and moods. Make sure you pick a color that captures your company’s personality.

Typography: Don’t use common fonts, distinguish your logo from the rest with custom fonts and never use more than two fonts. Make sure the fonts are legible when scaled down.

Special Effects: Do not use any special effects on your logo, they’ll make your logo ineffective for a lot of creative marketing campaigns.

Balance: Make sure the logo has a nice balance. If your logo has multiple words make sure the logo highlights the key words.

FIVE PRINCIPLES OF LOGO DESIGN

- SIMPLE

- MEMORABLE

- TIMELESS

- VERSATILE

- APPROPRIATE

Logos are a critical aspect of business marketing. It’s the single most visible manifestation of the company.

CORPORATE BRANDING | DOMAIN NAME

STARTUP ELITE

WHAT MAKES A DOMAIN NAME GREAT?

SHORT

The least amount of Characters, Syllables and Words.

MEMORABLE

Common words that are easy to spell and have a catchy sound.

AVAILABLE

Available for purchase from Domain Registrar, Auction House, Domain Broker or Domain Owner.

What’s the value of buying multiple domain names?

Accidental Typos: Despite knowing how to spell the words we use daily we continue to make accidental typos every day. Having a domain names that forwards the user to the right website is very convenient.

Common Misspelling: McDonalds could be easily misspelled as MacDonalds or MackDonaldsif it wasn’t one of the most recognized brands in the world. Unless you are a famous brand you cannot afford to let users make this mistake.

Micro-Sites: A company may choose to launch one or several microsites for improved marketing of specific services/products, special events, company blog/magazine, marketing campaign or other projects.

Being Competitive: In the search for your company name you probably came up with a few good names that were available. Why would you give your competitors the chance to buy those names? For a minimal cost you can acquire all the good names making it just a little bit harder for new competitors entering your market.
