Bring the team together in these tough times.

Lockdown has just been extended for another month.

It's a stressful time.

It's hard to keep motivated and focussed.

Cheeky Food Events can help cheer up your team and let them know that you have their backs.

Our online chef will help then create a magnificent meal for 4 people - Gnocchi with burnt sage butter, pancetta bark and an Italian salad, perhaps accompanied by a glass or two of chilled Lambrusco

Together, your team will create a gourmet masterpiece, laugh, learn and enjoy.

The Times they are a changing.

Our world has turned upside down and we don’t know when things will return to ‘normal’.

We are having to re-think nearly every aspect of our professional and personal lives.

But one thing that hasn’t changed is the fundamental need for interpersonal interaction, particularly in the context of sharing information and learning.

It’s just that the way we have traditionally done that needs to be radically re-engineered.

And perhaps nowhere is that more relevant than with conferences and live events.

Until just a few months ago, conferences were a combination of plenary, workshop sessions and networking, scheduled over a multi-day residential conference.

No longer!

The online environment is very different to the live environment.

Engagement and connection is challenging – to say the least!

We need to completely re-think the very concept of what an event is!

Staring at a screen and listening to traditional presentations simply will not work in this environment.

Our go-to reference for screen based content is Television.

And what is TV?

Mostly(!), it is a carefully crafted blend of entertainment and information delivery.

The most engaging TV takes us on a journey of discovery.

So we need to re-imagine on-line conferences in this light.

And remember – before you design your event, ask yourself

What do you want the audience to know, feel and do

In the days, weeks and months

after the event

Over the next few days, I'll be sharing some tips about how to make your online events as engaging as they possibly can - allowing your audience to connect with your message and each other.

If you would like to chat about how to maximise the long term effectiveness of your online events, give me a call on 0437 837 833 or send me a note at [email protected]

It depends how you design them! Naturally, the reason for holding events is to deliver a tangible and clearly articulated outcome that produces long term benefits for customers, stakeholders and the business. In other words, events should deliver a return on investment.

How COVID 19 has changed the impact of your brand.

It’s been nearly 3 months now since the entire world changed, some say forever!

From a business perspective, we have all had to radically re-think the very essence of what we do and how we do it.

With the entire business world turned upside down, now, more than ever the expression “A Brand is a Promise” has come sharply into focus.

Our customers, teams and stakeholders are emotionally sensitive. They are scared. They are nervous and the future is more unpredictable than ever.

They are searching for honesty, authenticity and assurance that the brands they trust have their backs.

So that means that your brand, your actions and your product need to be consistent.

Now is the time to re-energise your brand so that your customers can form a deep emotional and long-term connection with your products, your people and your promise.

Ask yourself these questions:

What is the meaning behind your brand?

What is the brand promise?

Is your brand truly delivering on that promise every single day?

What do you want your customers, your team, your suppliers and your stakeholders to think about your brand?

How do you reinforce your brand promise in a time of uncertainty?

It starts with your team!

Once your team truly believes in your brand values, they will be eager to share their beliefs with customers. They won’t just be paying lip service to your brand, they will be emotionally invested in the brand’s success because they know that your products and services will be of significant benefit to each and every customer.

And it’s vitally important for your team to feel appreciated.

Is your team truly invested in your brand right now?

Before COVID 19 gave the world the biggest jolt it has seen in 75 years, there were lots of ways to enhance team engagement – events, conferences, team building, incentives, team lunches, drinks after work. For the time being at least, none of these things are possible.

And it’s even harder to keep your team engaged when they are working remotely and the only time they see each other is on a screen!

We have all been participating in multiple zoom meetings. Are they truly effective in reinforcing your brand values?

Why not consider a more structured and designed approach to team engagement?

For the time being, this will have to be via our screens.

Entertainment is the key!

And what’s the thing that screens are mostly used for outside the work environment?

Entertainment.

Truly effective entertainment is engaging, informative, funny, dramatic and challenging.

Let’s design virtual conferences in the same way.

Rather than presenters delivering in the traditional manner, let’s build a ‘show’ using all the elements of the entertainment industry to deliver powerful messages that engage and stick. Memorable messages that create conversations, ultimately translating into deeper commitment to your brand promise.

The messages are still focused on your brand and it’s promise. We just need to apply creativity and effective communication techniques to ensure that our teams can share their passion for your brand with their communities!

And when we come out the other side of this, it will be those brands, whether they are a bank a café, or an event company, who exhibit true leadership that will thrive and prosper – for the benefit of all.
