what we do

Simply put, we get it done for our clients. What “it” means depends on the client and the event, but here’s a general idea of where we excel:

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I start?

At the beginning. Right here. What do you want to achieve? Let’s set up a meeting and talk strategy.

Is my event too small/too large for ESG to manage?

We’ve managed everything from a 4-day conference for 13,000 attendees to a 10-person, half-day seminar. All events, large and small, are matched with a dedicated, perfectly sized team to make sure everything goes off without a hitch.

What if we only need help with a specific part of our event?

Filling in the gaps is something we do for our clients every day. Only in need of assistance with registration and housing? Sponsor management? Production? We’ll match our scope of work to your exact needs.

How long will it take to plan my event?

How much time do we have? Of course, the more time we have, the better, but we can work with any timeline.

Can we talk to your current clients?

Absolutely. If you need some solid references, we’re happy to hook you up with that. You can also check out some of our current clients featured on our site here.

Our CEO wants to speak but isn’t particularly good at it. Can you help with that?

With a little coaching, we can have your executives sounding like a cross between Jon Stewart and Oprah.

Can you help me add some fireworks to my Power Point presentation?

Absolutely. We can also show you other impressive, digitally integrated, larger than life ways to help you tell your story and skip PowerPoint altogether. (With or without actual pyrotechnics.)

Do you handle travel arrangements?

Planes, trains, automobiles, and any other form of transportation you might need.

Can you help me keep my audience’s attention?

Absolutely. Content and agenda curation is more important than ever. We’ve done our homework and have a slew of engagement tactics up our sleeve that we can help you deploy at your event.

Can you help us figure out the right tech stack for our event?

Picking the right platform or software can be overwhelming. Our event tech experts have researched and tested it all and can recommend a custom mix of event technology and functionalities for your event based on the overall strategy.

Have a program you love or locked into a contract for a specific platform? Not a problem – we can incorporate it into the full stack in a way that makes sense for your event.

Are your clients still hosting digital and hybrid events?

Yes, absolutely. But it has evolved since the early pandemic days. We are seeing large in person attendance with a smaller digital audience, or vice versa, and creative, asynchronous, re-use of both live and digital content. We’ll help you outline a strategy, and then create experiences that actively engage both audiences without isolating one or the other.

 

How do you measure the success of an event?

This is where we love to geek-out on things like data collection, RFIDs, contact integration, cross-referencing, analysis, NPS scores and ROI and ROE metrics. It all starts with your objectives and how you define success. We’ll work with you to create measurement strategy that delivers to your stakeholders.

What’s the craziest thing that ever happened at an event?

Next question.

How can you help us design an event our audience actually wants to attend?

It’s all about creating one-of-a-kind experiences. From ride-alongs on an F1 track to getting Shaq to DJ your reception, we’ll help you create FOMO within your target audience.

Is there anything you won’t do?

We try to keep it all within the margins of the law.

Can I get an estimate?

Yes. A firm estimate with a complete explanation of everything from F&B and AV to lanyards and amenities. We build budgets with objectives in mind and we’ll always tailor to yours. Email us at info@esg.us
