Sales Events Are A Waste Of Resources
95% of sales events are a waste of resources.
Instead, host your own. Much cheaper and more effective.
(Talking 100% from my own experience, as always)
1. Target the execs of your top accounts
2. Pick a prestigious venue (e.g. nice restaurant)
3. Use an industry-relevant speaker as an anker
These invites will have a high response rate:
1. Execs won’t be on floor of mass events
2. They want to be in intimate environments
3. Being amongst peers: networking, inspiration
What is key: have your own top execs as hosts!
Those are the ingredients for an events with REAL
opportunities and deals that came through the top.
Bonus tip: Plan and invite AT LEAST 6-8 weeks in
advance. Otherwise nobody will have time for you.
