- ‼️ FREE EVENT PLANNING TRAINING ‼️
In this video on Event Planning Blueprint TV, Owen Hemsath and I discuss event planning 101. We're covering the basics and the purpose of this training is to give you the tools you need to plan an event.
In this event training, we cover:
- How to determine your event objective and why that’s important
- How to choose the right event venue
- Why choosing the appropriate food and beverage can make (or break) your event.
- What to consider when hiring speakers or entertainment, and some extra secrets that event planners don’t normally share!
Happy planning!
Melanie

To everyone complaining about Owen:
If they wanted to just shoot Melanie presenting the info, they would have. They even said this is the second version of it and it was decided to present the interview this way. His questions were really good especially to those who aren't as well adept in the business yet. It added an exciting dimension to the conversation rather than just a lecture.
Those who can't do, complain on the internet. A lot.
thanks you for saying so Jessica, I totally agree. Owen is an extremely kind and giving person - in fact, this video was part of a huge free series he gave away. Owen spent so much time and energy putting the series together even when he was battling his own life threatening disease (which he hid well in this video). So instead of focusing on what you don't like, focus on what you can take away from this video and use for your own events. #kindness

Amazing content. Thankyou
My pleasure!
I love the info provided. I'm a venue owner. This information is great for not only event planners but everyone involved. I have to say the guys tonality was a bit aggressive and even felt arrogant. But video was great!
+Elizabeth De Costa I'm glad you found value in the information we provided and appreciate your feedback. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

I decided to make this a business and just lost on how and where to start. Am glad i ran into this. Looking to work with anyone doing event at this time as a volunteer so i can learn.

this is awesome! Im in the Navy and part of my job is planning events in the Chaplain Corps. I knew some of this already through experience but this gives me a better way to establish my skills even better and take it with me when I go to the civilian sector! thank you for this!
You're welcome, glad it helped you!
Very practical. Thank Melannie. I would like to be in touch with you organizing bigger conferences like the General Assemblies for Heads of State, Government, First Ladies, Ministers. Their aspect is quite difference although more less same template but more details. I have done that for 27 years.
You're welcome
Awesome
I like the comment about 40% of invitees not showing up...we did have an even where the owner spent a fortune and the guest didn't show up so they had half of the tables empty and wasted so much money preparing for so many people.
I'm so sorry to hear that! Following up multiple times and through various channels, and getting RSVPs can help.
So thankful for this video! Before you started event planning, did you go to school or get a certificate online for planning? Or did you just start your career?
Thanks Kristen, glad you enjoyed it! I did not get a certification and don't believe it's necessary unless you want to work for a large organization. Here's more on that: eventplanningblueprint.com/event-planning-certificate/
great information. i am really trying to build my ideal client persona.
This will help you, Michelle: eventplanningblueprint.com/do-you-know-your-perfect-event-planning-client-anatomy/

@@eventplanningblueprint thanks
Good one dear
love this video, please what is the minimum number of people do you need in your team as a starter.
there is no min. You can start on your own, as many do.
I would like to thank you for a great video! Question, how can a small business owner start doing events in their area?
Thanks Matthew. Here are 10 Steps to be an event planner that will help you get started: eventplanningblueprint.com/your-10-steps-to-becoming-an-event-planner/
Thank you!! I'll go over and watch it !
Find your perfect location get insurance and permits. When you get your permits it should have the regulations for your area. If alcohol get liquor permits from your local liquor control board and for all events you might have to contact the local fire marshal. After you do that, start advertising. If you need a professional to guide you through the first one, contact

Good luck on your event!
thx
Hi there love the video very helpful I understand how you would budget depending on the amount of each item but what about how much would you charge to do the event for the client how would you base that

Thank you for this video!! As a freelance event planner what kind of services would you say I could provide to an already well established event ? Specifically during the event. Thank you !
You're welcome Lorna. Happy to help but that's too vague for us to provide any info :) We'd need to know a lot more about the event, your role, what's been done, what's currently being done, etc. etc.
EventPlanning BlueprintTV Of course, thank you for your quick response ! I just got curious when you mentioned that you were asked by a client to attend an event as a consultant but you didn't actually plan the event yourself. I would like to offer my services to an annual beer/music festival and I am trying to identify their needs and how I could help during the event since it's pretty soon...
You need to speak to them about their needs to see if you can or can't help and if it's a good fit. Making connections is how you get hired...being asked to attend an event onsite as a consultant is very different than having a client hire you and offering event services/planning. Get to know who runs and manages the beer festival, what improvements can they make -- chances are they are focused on making money for this event, so how can help with a better ROI? What are they doing well, so they even need your help? All things only they can asnwer for you.
EventPlanning BlueprintTV Wow I must say again just how useful your channel is !! I hope I am not wasting too much of your time, I would just have a couple more questions ... Would you say being a consultant is a good way to make connections ? And, last question, would you have any specific tips for a festival to make more profit ?
Hi Lorna, you don't have to be a consultant to make connections. Anyone can make connections and if you're going to be in the event industry, you need to make those connections and build relationships with other event planners, vendors, potential clients, etc. As for specific tips, again it's too vague because we don't know what they're already doing or not doing, but here are some ways an event can make money - sell tickets, premium tickets, sell sponsorship, have raffles/games, having a VIP room with special tastings (or speakers...depends on the event), digital ads on the website, and of course sell merchandise! Good luck :)
Good evening I would like to know how I could have a national event done? What are the step that I will have to take
Hi Bamian, that's a very big question and requires a lot of planning. It's more than we help with in this space, but I'd start by reading this post to get started: eventplanningblueprint.com/dont-plan-any-event-without-reading-this/ and if you're planning a national event and you're not an event planner, then I'd recommend hiring experts to do it.
thank you very much, I learned a lot of interesting and informative things, everything was clear. I have a question for you, is it possible to independently study for an event manager for online courses plus all kinds of training videos, will this be enough? is it possible to study without a higher education ?
Thank you
It certainly is and we have such course :) eventplanningblueprint.com/howtobeaneventplanner
Thank you, I'll follow link
my sister is just starting up
i would really like to know how to i would start the event like if i have 1000,000 fcfa will i be able to fund the project. with a rough estimation please?
Hey there, without knowing more about the event, we can't give you a definitive answer. However, we have some articles on the topic. Here's one:
eventplanningblueprint.com/event-planning-budgets additionally, we have a full budget breakdown here: eventplanningblueprint.com/eventplanningtemplates
If the food comes from outside the venue should it be free for the organizer because this is an opportunity for the caterer to show off their food?
No, the catering company needs to make money to stay in business
this is so informative and on point
Glad it was helpful!
what would be your suggestion for a buffer for a $20,000 event?
+Hope Venetta typically 10% of any event budget is suitable
+EventPlanning BlueprintTV Thank you! I have been planning events for many years, and it is good to get confirmation and stay up on industry best practices. Thanks again.
+Hope Venetta anytime!
I’m an outreach coordinator at my church and would love to learn more about planning events where do I start?
Hi Michelle, start here eventplanningblueprint.com/eventplannershub
@@eventplanningblueprint thank you so very much. My goal is to plan better events for our church and community and not be so frustrated when doing so. Again thank you!
@@michelleherman5298 this will help you organize everything!
Thank you!
What event have you personally planned that was 30000 people or more? Because that is a lot and not very common because of that many people. Is it a company or a type of festival that I would know about? I would love to read about or see some photos
The event is called GreyCup -- a national football game and festival in Canada (our version of the Super Bowl). I talk about it in many videos and and blog posts :)
There are a lot of people in our community planning large events!
@@eventplanningblueprint thanks for sharing
Car salesmen and restaurants have client appreciations and they charge.
Then it's not a client appreciation. If you're inviting clients to appreciate them, you don't charge. Those would be client events (some may call them something else?!), but they're not appreciation events. The whole idea of having an appreciation event is to appreciate your clients not charge them!
Mam I Am from india i want start new event business i hot so muchi information from this event cesaion, thanks yo
Regarding by KASI.

BOTTOMLINE: You should have enough respect to RSVP for any event that requires an RSVP. In this way you avoid the embarrassment of being turned away and spending money on a car rental.
Really wanted to hear what she has to say, but the guy interviewing was just beyond obnoxious. Had to click away.
yes, the guy talks too much
The gentleman's voice is exhausting to listen to, I made it to 46 minutes but now I have a head ache! Thanks for the great info otherwise :)
Glad you liked the info. Owen was going through a major medical issue and was kind enough to spend time doing this video even though he should have been in bed resting. Be kind people because you never know what's going on with someone!
Indeed there's no reason for people to be rude; it's important that people think before they can say anything....Great for the Video😊

Very informative but the guest that you had on was rather irritating and was not giving too much input into the subject.
I was the guest on HIS show :) Owen was kind enough to let me share this with our community.
This dude talks way too much about himself!! Shut up. Let Melanie do her thing, shes awesome.
agreee, he's so annoying...
while I appreciate that you think I'm awesome, this was HIS show that he graciously allowed me to share with our event community!
Sorry I have to agree too, he does talk too much, yes it's his show but when you invite someone on to your show to talk, LET THEM TALK, there were moments when Melanie didn't even get to finish her sentence. As a presenter of a show you should know when to speak and when to be quiet and listen. That's my opinion.
That guy talks too damn much .... But great info!
it was his show that he graciously gave us to offer our viewers so he has every right to talk in this segment! :)
He talks toooo much!
Zane Blane it's his show so he's entitled to!
This was amazing ... thank you 😊
you're very welcome!
