The first event I did as a business, after leaving the world of music and festivals, was a street festival for a business group that wanted to revitalise its economy. They had a general plan of what they wanted to offer visitors and we set about bringing back a street fair to remind the neighbourhood of the great businesses on their doorstep. Since then I've done many community events and have learned 5 key components to a successful community event.

Make sure you engage your WHOLE community.
Be clear on your goal of your event and wear it like a shingle over the shop front.
Community food before food trucks.
Resist the temptation to book the high end (read expensive) entertainment.
Make sure you contact your local Council and find out what rules and regulations you need to comply with.

Community events are an amazing fabric of society and anyone can create one. If you are working on a community event, follow me for lots of event planning tips to help you along the way.

"I'm quitting" I said. "You could pay a 15 year old half my salary to do this job. It doesn't feel right." Truth was, I was bored out of my brain! I was a receptionist in the head office of a highly efficient, highly profitable company. The phone rang about 3 times a day, I had steered the boss away from shorthand to dictaphone (transcribing machine for all the kids in the back), and there was very little for me to do.

So, even though I was getting paid 40% more than I had ever been paid in my life, working with an awesome team of people and working with an entrepreneurial lead of their time, I walked in the door and I quit.

The boss said to me....

"I don't pay you for what you do Sally, I pay you for what you can do. I didn't hire you for the tasks I need done, I hired you because I know that when I want something done, you will be capable of doing it".

This was the first boss that actually saw potential in me, and I have never forgotten these words. My job changed that day. I started to look for ways I could add value to the company. What could I do that was unexpected, surprising and added to the already efficient machine. From then on, I created a great role for myself and learnt a stack of new skills. This gave me permission to test, play, try things out, without the pressure of saying "I can do that".

So now when that little imposter creeps into my mind and someone is paying me to do something that comes easily to me, I remember these words. And I know that when push comes to shove and that thing has to get done, your investment will have been worth it, because yes, I can.

The things we do to get attention LOL. I wanted everyone to know me before I got on stage to give my presentation, so I played basketball, wore a silly hat and dressed in a hot pink suit with sparkles on my t-shirt. Sometimes you have to do it all to stand out!

This was my event with a bunch of spam comments from people claiming to have bought tickets and now trying to re-sell them. None of these were legit. Be careful when buying tickets peeps, it's not just the big shows getting scammed.

If you don't show up, they can't find you, if they can't find you, you can't help them.

How long have you been specialising in your field? Is it time you took to your own stage and shared your message on your terms?

Are you considering your own and your company's values when mapping out your event plan? By establishing the values you want to hold for your event, you make your decision making so much easier. The first filter in the decision making process. Does it meet our values? Yes or No?

Coming up with fundraising ideas for your charity events can be a challenge. Many events have the usual auction but I think auctions exclude the majority of the room and by making this your major activity, you may be leaving thousands of dollars on the table.

Auctions work really well at most fundraising events, but have you ever done an ROI exercise on your charity auction? They consider the amount of hours put into sourcing, schmoozing, and gathering items, then the listing, sorting and process around setting up the auction, the promotion, the logistics and of course the ex*****on, delivery, and reporting back to all those donors. You can see why auction companies can charge upward of 50% of the auction revenue.

Share your fundraising ideas below and let's help everyone get more support for their causes, and include their whole audience in the process.

And if you would love to have me in your back pocket for your next fundraising event, maybe my short, action-oriented, and fun course is will work for you. Find out more here -

The Event Planner's Workshop presents this six week course with weekly live Q&A to support you with your perfect event. Ideal for those who are ready to take their clients, guests or staff on a unique immersive experience.

I'm giving away my secret... Most people don't talk about the programs they're in or the coaches and mentors they have that help them in business. Me, I can't wait to tell anyone who will listen about all the amazing mentors and programs I have in my life and business! That's why when Jen Blandos said she was going to do 10 Days of Masterclasses absolutely free, I couldn't wait to share with you. I'm in the Female Fusion membership and the knowledge and support is like nothing else I am a part of. I know so many epic business women or women who aspire to have their own business one day, that this would be great for.

So, grab this link to attend the free masterclasses over the next 10 days. Even if you can't make all ten, make sure you make the one I feature in! LOL

But seriously, this content is so good, it will take your business to the next level. Check it out here - https://www.femalefusionnetwork.com/a/2147808630/AYhHH7zD
