There is a lot that goes into event planning than what meets the eye. All the running around, paperwork, last minute counter checking that event organizers do is just a tip of the iceberg. Fortunately, event organizer apps have made planning events easier by doing most of the heavy lifting for us.
Technology has always found a way of making things easier for us. There are plenty of event organiser apps available today that one is spoilt for choice. Here is what an event planning app can do for you.
1. Carry Your Ideas for You
We always love to come up with a checklist on how we are going to run an event from start to finish. Rather than carry all these ideas on printed paper (though some still love it), it is possible to save everything on an event planning app. The app will sync your notes across multiple devices reducing the amount of paperwork needed.
2. Event Registration
Part of running an event involves accounting for everyone who is in attendance. Luckily, you don’t have to print out signup sheets when you can pull one up right from your phone. These apps use a QR scanner to check in guest into your event. What’s more, it is possible to connect your phone or tablet to a printer to print event badges for guests.
3. Manage events from start to finish
While some event organizer apps allow you to check in guests successfully, there are apps that offer more than that. It is possible to run every aspect of your event using an app; from checking in guests, managing guests’ contacts, sending out thank you emails, and even creating a temporary website to market your next event. There are event apps that will scan receipts and invoices and save them in softcopy. You can later transfer this data to your computer for reconciling.
4. Effective Communication
To manage large events, you have to be in constant communication with your team. There are event organizing apps that literally turn your smartphone into a makeshift walkie-talkie. You just need to plug in a microphone supported earphone and constantly be in touch with your team.
Bottom-line
You do not have to risk a panic attack while running a large event. You only need to install a few, or just one event organiser app to help you be in control of everything.
