Q9. Free vs Paid: Does putting a ticket price on your event cause a lower turnout? Or does it ensure that all those in attendance are serious about being there?

@LSPARKGlobal A9. Producers need to provide content that people see value in. Attendees will be there whether they have to pay or not. Reasonable fees are important. Consider a free option if you must. Even with paid event you will see 50% drop off over the day. #SaaSChats

Q8​. If you’re looking to increase audience interaction, how can you engage attendees who are often multitasking and doing other things while tuning into your event?

@LSPARKGlobal A8. Also, make sure you have more than one thing happening at a time for people whose attention you might be losing. #SaaSChats 2/2

@LSPARKGlobal A8. Encourage your attendees to build their own schedule IN ADVANCE. People will focus on things they’re interested in, so make sure you have content that’s suitable for different interests. #SaaSChats (1/2)

@LSPARKGlobal A7. Find the key features that matter to you. There are lots of event platforms that can do similar things but I think you’ll want to do some customization if possible. We love the service at nimble companies like @pheedloop & @eventmobi - Who are Canadian based too! #SaaSChats

Q7. If you had to give advice to someone putting together a virtual event for the first time, what would it be?

@LSPARKGlobal A6: 1/2 Fresh relevant topics, new speakers and trying something different always helps. One example is a virtual wine tasting! Everyone is sent wine samples to their homes, and then via video conference, a sommelier leads a wine tasting for the group. #SaaSChats

Q6. ​How can you help your virtual event stand out in the saturated world of online events right now? How can you make sure your target audience actually sees your event?

@LSPARKGlobal A5. It’s that FIRST event that will be REALLY interesting for an individual– After that, it will become more comfortable. #SaaSChats 2/2

@LSPARKGlobal A5. I don’t think it will take as long as people think to get back to attending events. Once health authorities permit larger gatherings + producers adopt new health & safety policies, I think people will adapt back to in-person events relatively quickly. #SaaSChats

Q5.​ What do you think the ‘return to in-person’ process will look like for events? What do you think organizers will need to implement to make their in-person events a success, and what are those extra steps that will make their guests feel safe?

@LSPARKGlobal A4. Absolutely!! I love the calibre of speaker and panelist talent available not that we take travel schedules out of the equation. In a surprise twist, despite the saturation of virtual events in the market, we are seeing record show rates for virtual events. #SaasChats

Q4. Despite how much we miss in-person events, we have to admit there are some great things about hosting virtual events! What do you love most about virtual events? Why?

A4. Virtual events can be more inclusive! Attendees now have less financial barrier they normally face with an in-person conference. @SAASNORTH NOW starts at ~$100/ticket versus over $1k usually... Also, it's VERY efficient to meet lots of people in a short time. #SaaSChats

@LSPARKGlobal A3. Meeting people face-to-face. Duh! There’s nothing like networking with people during happy hour drinks! But I fear the end of the handshake has been replaced by the elbow bump –but maybe we can get really innovative with our non-physical greeting rituals? 👋😊 #SaaSChats

@LSPARKGlobal Q2. The pandemic has seen changes in consumer behaviours. There will be even more demand for remote passes to events and hybrid live/remote formats. Producers will have to add more value to in-person tickets. #SaaSChats

@LSPARKGlobal Q1. I'm impressed with the speed at which many of us have started new virtual versions of our events 😊 - Virtual event platforms are in their infancy and we are going to see considerable iteration over the next few months even. #SaaSChats
