Confessions of a European Event Manager

By On August 31, 2009 No Comments

 

Introduction

When a company or organisation wants to put on a conference or large event, it is unlikely they would consider doing it themselves. Most companies do not have all the necessary in-house expertise, and releasing personnel from their regular work could be less cost efficient than bringing in the experts. There is also a great deal more to organising a conference than most people would realise in that it is a very stressful and technical activity. The client therefore would usually call in another company that specialises entirely in conference and event management.

There are a great many companies offering Corporate Event Management Services so competition is keen. Even if you are the best you still have to compete with others who offer lower prices and might appear to be cheaper. One of the ways of countering the cut throat business in the UK is to look at offering Conference Production Services in Europe. European managers then have the option of using a UK or EU company to provide for their Conference or Event. UK conference services are more than able to offer competitive prices. In the current economic climate with the pound at its lowest value for many years, UK companies have a distinct advantage in the EU market. .

I plan to take you through a step by step account of the stages of managing an event in Europe using examples from a recent contract in Rome.

Step 1

As a company offering conference and event management services it is essential that the quality of service provided is professional and value for money. To this end attention to detail is paramount. The project manager will know his team and the quality and reliability of the technical staff, the quality of the electronic equipment and the soundness of the sets that are used. Once these items are in place and proven on previous jobs then the pitch to the client can be confident and knowledgeable so that the client can be reassured things will run smoothly. If you can trust your team to do a good job then the client can trust you to do a good job.

Step 2

The Brief

The brief we were given was a three and a half day conference event in Rome in early February for approximately 150 international delegates attending, the majority of whom would be travelling from the USA.

Technical Specification

The technical requirement was to combine a rear projection set and a four speaker PA system with radio microphones. Also data and video switching, wireless table microphones for delegate interaction with presenters in question and answer sessions. They wanted two show laptop PC’s loaded with PowerPoint and various video software.

Step 3

A quotation was provided for all the physical hardware and the technical requirements and the services of the project manager and his team. No subcontracting was needed. Details were agreed and the quote was accepted by the client and a contract issued. It is important to make sure you have a contract and in it, a clause for cancellation charges.

Use the finest specialist events company for the best festival and fireworks display ever.

Step 4

When organising any event abroad we find it more reliable and economical to use our own technical equipment and workforce who we know and trust. There are no problems with language and the team understand the technical issues that are likely to be encountered. They are used to working together, each having their strengths to contribute to the whole, and they can be trusted to do the best possible job with the minimum of fuss. However planning is a key activity particularly when organising meetings and conference events abroad. If you have forgotten something it’s too late to go back when you have driven 600 miles. So having decided to transport the full conference set, staging and equipment by van to Rome we then worked out the details of how best to achieve it.There will always be last minute and additional requirements from presenters and our team can be relied upon to deal with last minute glitches, that need immediate and effective technical support, as a matter of course.

Step 5

Transportation

The size of the event is critical to the choice of shipping. In our Rome example it was possible to convey all the required equipment in a hire van which could be driven using a standard UK driving licence. If the scale of a conference or exhibition event is much larger it would be recommended to use a dedicated freighting company to collect, deliver and return staging and technical elements to the destination. Using a dedicated freighting company also has the benefit of delivering the key personnel to the event without them being tired out after driving across Europe. In other words the team can be flown out to the event so that they are fresher on arrival. With cheap flights to Europe it can also work out more cost effective than overnight stays for eight or ten people driving en-route.

However, in this case it was decided that the event technicians would drive the van to Rome which would still be well within budget for all staging and technical elements. When hiring a vehicle it is essential to pay attention to maximum load capacity of the vehicle. The weight of the technical equipment and set must be less than the maximum load and once the main systems are onboard, care must be taken not to fill it to the brim with extra bits and pieces.

It is so easy, when being helpful, to add the client event material, such as delegate registration systems and materials, brochures, display and graphic panels. The result can easily mean that the maximum safe load allowance for the vehicle is compromised. As the load capacity is a legal necessity it is never a good idea to say yes to extra items on behalf of the client without being aware of the likely impact on overall weight.

Step 6

The Journey

As the distance was twelve hundred miles there and back it was decided that with an allotted journey time of two and a half days each way to Rome would be adequate. Although it would have been possible to travel to Rome in two days we have learned from experience to allow a margin for any delays en route. It also allows for the technicians themselves to be fresh enough after the road trip to be able to work effectively.

When travelling long distance across Europe and at a time of year when the weather might be inclement, it is essential that the safety of personnel and other road users is paramount. By dividing the travel time between two drivers and rotating them every two hours, we have found that neither is unduly fatigued. This system allows large distances of up to 600 miles a day to be covered with safety. Regular breaks help to maintain concentration and awareness, with total travel times of no more than ten hours in any day and preferably no more than eight hours a day. It is never advisable to rely on a bare minimum of journey time for any long distance travel to meet an event deadline.

Some companies offer tailor made team building events that combine company events management with exhilarating activity.

Having decided on the route to be taken from the UK to Rome we left the UK via a ferry from Dover to Calais and then journeyed to an area just North of Dijon on day one. From Dijon on day two, the journey continued as far as Bologna via the Mont Blanc tunnel. We decided on day three, to make an early start for the half day drive from Bologna to Rome and deliver the equipment to the venue, then rest up for the remainder of the day so the crew would be fresh to start work the next morning.

Navigation across Europe is now much more straight forward with Satellite, but we would also advise printed route plans and local maps of any places where a stop-over is planned. It has sometimes been the case that even with the latest updated information the Sat Nav cannot always find the precise location of the road you want, due to the ongoing construction of many new motorway networks. You may find yourself suddenly stuck on a road it doesn’t know and this is when the co-driver can be a great help to navigate you through the confusion.

Step 7

Accommodation for Overnight Stops

Choosing accommodation for suitable overnight stops is worth some research. There is a plentiful choice of motel stops near to all major roads in France and Italy all of which are reasonably priced. However, there are great guest houses away from the main cities and major roads which offer a much more relaxing experience for a tired traveller and are usually cheaper than the chain motels. Often these places have secure parking enhancing vehicle security from theft and damage. After all, when freighting audio-visual systems with a value stretching to tens of thousands of pounds, peace of mind is useful to say the least.It is advisable to spend time during pre-event production locating places to overnight. There is little benefit from having to find a room late in the day at an unknown cost which may impact on the profitability of the job.

Step 8

On Site Conference Production

On arrival in Rome we drove the van to the conference venue so that the audio-visual equipment and staging could be unloaded directly into the conference room. This was to secure the items and have everything ready for fitting the following day. Getting an early start to set up the equipment allowed for the client to begin presentation rehearsals on the afternoon of the rig day. Later on the same day there was to be an evening reception and brief welcome presentation to all attending delegates. The setting up procedures are tried and tested and the team worked like a well oiled machine so that all the audio-visual elements were complete and in place on schedule and all the technical systems were working correctly by the time the client presenters arrived from the USA.Our job is to make sure all the technical elements are set up and in working order by the time the client wants to use them and test their own systems. It is at this point that the last minute glitches will probably occur.

Step 9

Audio Visual and Production Content

An example of the kind of last minute technical hitches that has to be resolved is when a conference presenter is unable to submit his presentation during the pre-production period and will arrive on site with it in his briefcase (Probably having worked on it during his flight over). The production team will not know until late in the process what presentation format is required. However the presenter will still expect his material to be incorporated seamlessly into a master slide deck. If a conference set uses a wide screen projection format the content will need to be generated in a sixteen by nine aspect ratio. Unknown to the presenter however, the offered material may have been built around a slide template that used a four by three aspect ratio instead. Depending on content, this may have minimal impact on the look of the presentation but if there are images of people, or pie chart graphs, these will then appear as stretched and elliptical shapes which would be unsatisfactory. Fonts and text boxes may move out of alignment and embedded applications such as XL may well be impossible to read. The added value for European clients of using a UK based corporate event supplier is that the British are famous for their ability to be innovative and come up with solutions to problems at the last minute and particularly under pressure.

The right audio visual equipment should do exactly what you need it to do.

During the rehearsals for the first day of the conference one of the American presenters had travelled to site with a power point presentation containing video footage. Unfortunately the video content had not been embedded into his presentation so it did not appear as he expected. The video content was hyper-linked to files that were inaccessible from the PowerPoint presentation – supplied to us on a memory stick. Fortunately with our technical proficiency we were able to download the video from source and convert the video footage into a high resolution format that would be compatible with our audio visual systems. This is when event support specialists, who speak English as a first language and are familiar with the requirements of such last-minute complications, are priceless.

In an ideal scenario, all presentation content will have been tendered during the pre-production phase to minimise such last minute glitches, but more often than not on-site changes are required to re-format a presentation. Whilst it is by no means out of the question that a local AV company might well have been able to do the same, feedback from client events in Europe suggests that when they have used a local supplier they have often failed to be sufficiently expert to support such needs.

Step 10

During the Conference

Over the period of the two and a half day event we were able to further boost our reputation with the client and delegates. Something that they had overlooked until the last minute was to provide appropriate themed music for role-play exercises. Although it had not been part of the original conference production brief, we were able to provide apt and timely presentation support at very short notice from our on-site database of over thirty thousand music tracks.

Whilst seeming relatively negligible points in themselves the above types of scenarios can be very stressful for conference and event organisers, who already have responsibilities that go beyond the presentation content. The corporate conference event being organised by the client is a huge task of delegate management and event logistics, so that any projects that can be left to an experienced dedicated event management team such as ourselves, frees them up to focus on their own tasks of delivering a successful delegate experience.

Step 11

Language Issues in European Conferencing.

When working in Europe either as an event manager, conference producer, or production company, it is always helpful if you are able to communicate directly with the people you meet at the venue and along the way. Whilst all major event management destinations and hotels across Europe have staff who will speak English, there are occasions when they will not be available. We are lucky to have colleagues with rudimentary skills in French, Spanish and German who are all keen to improve their language skills. They are prepared to have a go whenever possible to try out what they have learned and this has sometimes proved to be invaluable. It may seem obvious to say, but we recommend that at least one on your production team should have a working knowledge of the local language and should be encouraged to use their language skills as often as possible. It is often surprising how a little effort can generate a much better response from those who you are working alongside.

Conclusion

If you haven’t given much thought to the idea of working in Europe then we really recommend it. Conference events in Europe can be undertaken by a UK event production company at comparable cost to our European colleagues in the audio-visual supply sector. Favourable exchange rates add a further competitive edge to the costs of bringing your audio-visual and staging from the UK. Researching and planning the route and method by which conferencing systems are freighted and delivered will provide surprisingly low cost delivery solutions.

Taking your preferred conference production team with you to Europe will give increased peace of mind with regard to the quality of your technical support. Our client in Rome was very happy with the service and level of attention to detail we brought to their conference and repeat European corporate events are now routinely part of our conferencing diary. Fortunately our team really enjoy the experience of travelling abroad and having the opportunity during ‘down time’ to experience life in another culture and country. Particularly at the last night celebration which, rather like a topping out ceremony, tradition dictates must take place at the end of each show!

 


Replica Uggs are cool. You should know that.

By On August 31, 2009 No Comments

When people think of something that is a replica of the original item, words can come into their mind, such as cheap, poorly made, or not durable. So they might not be interested in products that say “Replica”. That’s not right. Now people’s wallets are tighter. The holiday season is coming around. The thought of getting some of those big ticket items as a replica is not so bad. In fact, there are so many companies that sell replica products now that you can get items like replica handbags, replica watches, replica jerseys, and replica coats for great prices.

This is not always a great deal. I don’t like Louis Vuitton so I don’t like his replicas. But I do like Uggs Boots. So a replica is ok.

Uggs Australia is a name brand that we know well. They are famous for their soft and warm sheepskin boots. Another almost as well known fact about them is that there high price tag that comes with these boots. The price of these boots starts at about $150.00 and goes up from there. Now, for some people, that is a lot of money to pay for a pair of boots!

That’s when getting replica Uggs can be a great alternative. But finding a company though that sells good immitation Uggs can be hard to come by. Some companies out there that sell these fake Uggs will try to save money by using cheaper material, resulting in an uncomfortable and poor quality boot. One company though that I would recommend that makes great imitation Uggs is Emu Australia. Emu Australia’s replica Uggs offers the same mold to your foot. Emu’s comfortable, warm fuzzy boot, and style as the real things, but they don’t cost so much!

You may wonder though how these companies can make Ugg replicas that are so cheap but still of goog quality. I’ll tell you why. The underlying costs of Emu and Uggs are the same. You pay extra for the Uggs brand. So this holiday season, instead of paying tons of money for the real Uggs, contact Emu Australia and order a pair of comfy cozy boots to keep you warm on those cold winter days, and still have some cash left over.

Ok now, if you need to wear the brand. If you have to know you’re wearing the real thing. If you want to be able to say yah I’m wearing Uggs. Then you have to buy Uggs. You get them here.


Diet and Weight Loss Tips

By On August 31, 2009 No Comments

Weight loss is of interest to almost everyone. Doctors constantly complain that people are far too fat for their health, but simply being told that fat is not healthy is different than actually losing weight. Given that losing weight is largely the result of burning more calories than you consume on a regular basis, it makes good sense to have an array of weight loss tips and tricks at your command as you slim down.

 

     

     

  • Take the air fifteen moments in one direction outside from your home and then turn around and walk back. Walking around the neighborhood is another easy way to get some good exercise. Whenever you have a pet, bring them with you.
  •  

     

  • Alter your agenda. If you work out in the afternoon, but binge while viewing television at nighttime, attempt physical exercise at night.
  •  

     

  • Change your mindset to think about selecting foods that will help your body’s health rather than worrying about foods that will affect your weight.
  •  

     

  • If you don’t feel like you have energy to exercise now, start out with some physical activity that will get you moving, but will not require a lot energy.
  •  

     

 

Dieting motivation is all about self-control and a belief in your power to really slim down. It is very arduous to succeed in dieting without motivation. Among the most beneficial diet and weight loss tips is to understand the food pyramid. It offers a basic outline of the types and amounts of food you should eat each day to give your body the nutrients it needs for optimal health. Eat protein and carbohydrate meals every 3 hours so you are having 5 to 6 small meals per day. Studies show that your metabolism increases if you eat little and often. Dining in practically the same pattern day in day out can become boring. Consuming food slowly is encouraging in this regard. You afford your organic structure a probability to accredit that you’ve had enough to consume.

Calorie limitation delivers the foundation of obesity treatment. The acceptable dietary recommendations for losing weight include diminishing calorie intake by 500 to 1000 calories a day and having a fat intake of no more than 30 percent of total calories. Eating slowly is helpful in this regard. You give your body a chance to recognize that you’ve had enough to eat.

Exercising actually makes you feel more energetic once you make a habit of it. Exercise is probably the most important key to increasing your metabolism and burning off excess fat. Research shows that you burn more stored fat for energy when you do aerobic exercises on an empty stomach than on a full stomach. Choose fun easy to do exercises and then do them regularly. For example, walking, dancing in the living room, and working out on a treadmill or other machine or with your favorite video or DVD at home can be fun and healthy.

If you seriously apply these rapid weight loss ideas and believe in the advantages associated with being thinner, you will lose weight, look better, feel better, and live a healthier life.


Are You Shopping For Affordable Medical Plans online?

By On August 31, 2009 No Comments

Are you shopping for affordable medical plans online? If so there are a few questions you should ask your self before diving in.

Protecting your family and making sure they have the affordable medical insurance they need when they need it most is at the top of most people’s priority list. For this reason affordable health coverage is not something you can do without. However, there are many different types of insurance out there to choose from. Making the right choice for your family can make a huge difference on your pocketbook.

Sometimes that choice may even mean leaving your employer sponsored group coverage for individual coverage tailored to your family. Affordable family health insurance means having a policy which meets your needs while costing you the least amount overall in healthcare costs. 1. How flexible are you? Do you have your heart set on seeing a specific doctor, or receiving medical care at a specific hospital? If so, you will want to start your shopping process by ruling out all Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO’s), which are very restrictive about using their “in network” health care providers.

 

On the other hand, if you have been referred to a particular HMO, ask them up front whether or not your favorite providers are included in their network. If not, you’ll want to look elsewhere — perhaps a PPO that provides more flexibility.

2. How healthy are you? Are you looking for a specific kind of coverage? Keep in mind that health insurance coverage comes in all shapes, sizes and flavors and what is necessary for your neighbor isn’t necessarily the right kind of coverage for you. Think about your lifestyle and decide whether or not any of the following optional benefits are important to you — prescription drug coverage, mental health benefits, maternity care, vision care, dental, or chiropractic care. If you don’t expect to need these benefits, there is certainly no point in paying for them in your policy.

On the other hand, make sure you are including optional coverage that you are likely to need. For example, if you have any thought of starting a family in the near future, maternity benefits are an absolute necessity as they will be prohibitively expensive or impossible to purchase once a pregnancy has occurred.

3. How much deductible can you afford? Early in the quote-seeking process, you will need to declare the amount of deductible you are seeking. Remember, the higher the deductible, the lower your premiums. It is generally advised that you accept the highest deductible being offered, even if it seems like a financial stretch — the lower premiums will usually out-weigh the deductible over time.

Once you have a firm grasp of the flexibility, coverage and deductible that you’re seeking, you’re ready to begin shopping for health insurance quotes online. If you need help finding the right quote, please visit BestHealthcareRates.com.

Should You Concentrate Rather Than Diversify Your Investing Strategies

By On August 30, 2009 No Comments

Our national leaders are regularly reminding us of something that is evident just by looking at all of the foreclosed homes in your neighborhood, the economy is in dire straits. Even as the safest investments prove to be not so safe, there are some ways to improve your bottom line.

Businesses report that earnings are down and morale is low. Consumer confidence is low as well. Because the credit market is tight, businesses are not borrowing as much to invest, expand, or fund new projects. This all affects the bottom line. With that said, times are not good right now. However, it is hard to call an actual bottom on the market, so we don’t know for sure if it will go lower.

How can I increase my income, so I can invest in the stock market?

As an investor you are taking a much greater risk, saving is a stage on the road to investing. You cannot be an investor without being a saver but you can be a saver without being an investor. Investing is what you do with the savings you have created if you are looking to generate a return on your money that is greater than what is already available to you through your savings instruments.

Are you tired of losing money in the stock market?

Millions of people have lost billions and trillions of dollars and are watching their hard earned money taxi down the runway. But putting your money under your mattress is still not the best investment in these volatile times.

The economy the stock market and the dollar are on a steady decline. It’s not a surprise that many people are scared to invest their money in the stock market right now with the wild volatility it has been showing over the past year.

With the current Obama administration, one way to start investing now is to start investing in green technology. Now may be the time to concentrate rather than diversify your portfolio. Solar cell and wind power companies would be some possibilities. Although we are facing the worst economy since the Great Depression, it is clear that in the next five years you will see more money being invested in green technology which will result in positive results for companies in this industry.

Postscript: Okay, so maybe the idea of making $100,000 in one day seems outrageous. But what if a person could make just one percent of that amount? Imagine what a difference it would make to life – and the lives of loved ones – making even $1,000 per day. Add that up, and it amounts to a nice amount of money.

Even just $1,000 every WEEK could change a person’s life forever. Think of the possibilities. $1,000 every week would mean $52,000 a year. That’s more money than a lot of people make from their full-time job.

Stomaching Surgery- The Basics of the Tummy Tuck

By On August 30, 2009 No Comments

The tummy tuck surgery (which is technically known as abdominoplasty) is not as many individuals believe a method of weight loss but instead is geared towards removing fat, tightening stomach muscles and strengthening the walls of the abdomen. Abdominal skin that has lost elasticity and no longer responds to the efforts of diet or exercise could benefit tremendously from a tummy tuck. Dieting and exercising of course are very important to lose weight and tone muscles but they cannot tighten loose flabby skin or improve the part of the abdomen known as the inner girdle. A tummy tuck will tighten your inner girdle and therefore give you a flatter, smoother looking stomach. A tummy tuck can get rid of almost all of the fat in your lower abdominal area and stretch marks will become a thing of the past. Plastic surgeons believe that the effects of pregnancy cannot distort a woman’s abdominal area so badly that it cannot be repaired by a tummy tuck. Besides women who’ve given birth, tummy tucks are favored by men and women alike who have lost a great deal of weight and are left with an excess of loose skin around their mid section.

Speaking of the inner girdle, we all have one, both men and women alike. The inner girdle can be found extending from your ribcage, down the length of your abdomen to your pubic bone and also from one side of the abdomen to the other. The inner girdle is situated between the abdominal fat of your body and your rectus muscles. The inner girdle is tough and sturdy and its primary job is to support the abdomen’s contents in order that they do not protrude outward. The gristle that is obvious on a piece of steak is the exact same substance that your inner girdle is made up of. Plastic surgeons have devised their own special name for this layer of skin- they call it “fascia.”

When a woman becomes pregnant her inner girdle stretches to accommodate the fact that the uterus is becoming bigger. After the baby has been born, with exercise and diet her muscles will regain some of the tone they once had, however her inner girdle will not fare as well. After pregnancy the inner girdle often does not go back into the proper shape it was in beforehand as it is not as resilient or as elastic as the abdominal muscles. For this reason after a woman has finished having her children she may decide to have a tummy tuck because the operation will allow for the tightening of the inner girdle in order to give it a flatter, smoother, and more attractive appearance. It is important to note that what a tummy tuck is all about is tightening the inner girdle and not tightening the muscles per se. The abdominal muscles in fact are below the inner girdle and are never exposed at any time during the surgical procedure.

Tummy tucks can indeed do wonders however they are not miracle cures by any means, and do have their limits. The stretch marks on your lower abdomen, as previously mentioned, will disappear with a tummy tuck procedure but the same cannot be said for your mid or upper abdomen, although the tummy tuck will move stretch marks in these areas down lower on your abdominal area. If your upper abdomen consists of a thick layer of fat then unfortunately abdominoplasty will not get rid of the thickness. Liposuction may be out of the question as well due to circulation and healing problems as well as other complications.

Tummy tucks can be broken down into three different types. There is the mini tummy tuck, the full tummy tuck and the ‘fleur de lise’ tummy tuck. The mini tuck is the best choice for those individuals who have only a little bit of loose or flabby skin in their abdominal area. In this case a low short transverse scar is made in the line where underwear sits and from here the plastic surgeon can take out excess fat and skin and tighten up the muscles. The most popular kind of tummy tuck which is also the one that has the most dramatic after effects is the full tummy tuck. When performing a full tummy tuck the plastic surgeon uses a similar scar as in the case of the mini tummy tuck but the surgery involves a larger area. The skin is elevated all the way up to the bottom of the ribcage and skin from the belly button to the pubic area is taken out creating a flatter appearance. The patient’s original belly button is gone with this procedure and a new one must be created by the surgeon. The last tummy tuck, known as ‘fleur de lise’ is the best bet for patients who already have vertical scars from past stomach stapling surgeries. With this operation the surgeon uses the pre-existing scar to fold in the skin including the sides of it.
