Targeted Organic Outreach: To reach the desired audience, social media platforms were leveraged for targeted organic outreach. Strategic content and engagement techniques were employed to generate interest and drive traffic to the event.

Collaboration with Sales Department: Close collaboration with the sales department was established to define a compelling value proposition for the event. By aligning marketing and sales efforts, the messaging was refined to effectively communicate the unique benefits of attending the event.

Enhancing User Experience: Insights gathered from previous events were shared with the operations department to improve the user experience. This step aimed to address any pain points and enhance attendee satisfaction, ultimately contributing to higher sales and positive word-of-mouth referrals.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO): Search engine optimization techniques were implemented to improve the event's visibility in search engine rankings. This involved optimizing relevant keywords, meta tags, and content structure to increase organic traffic and attract interested prospects.

Takeaways

To fellow entrepreneurs or product professionals: consider cultivating a culture of experimentation - it is never too soon to test and validate your assumptions. Feel free to see my comprehensive hypothesis testing and validation study.

Consider adopting a vertical growth model - I focused too much on what else we could do in the first years instead of amplifying what we did best.
‍
Lastly, beware of "technical/management debt" - short-term decisions are normal but often come with long-term impacts. So consider setting aside a day to tighten up loose ends.
