By Eugenia Dickerson


The process of planning for a seminar or any other function within an organization can be a very difficult task. For instance, when the school board is planning to host the Parents and Teachers Association meetings, rarely will the school management outsource for an event planner. What normally happens is that the principal of the school assigns two or three teachers to be in charge of planning the whole function. The tips discussed below would be very helpful in running events in Sacramento.

One should get his planning board out and draw up a plan. The white board stage is a very important stage. During this stage you do a lot of brainstorming. At this stage every person involved in the task is given an opportunity to air their views. You will find that by asking several people to give their opinions, the whole event will start to shape up right from the white board.

One must give a lot of thought to the event venue. Ensure you choose a venue that is accessible to every person who will be attending the function. You should look for avenue that is big enough to host all the guests who will be in attendance. In case you are organizing an event for just a few of people, it would be ideal to look for a venue that is just small enough. Your venue must have sufficient and clean rest rooms.

This will therefore mean that you have to include the cost of various experts and venues in your budget.

When you are charged with such a responsibility, it is important to be meticulous in your planning. Make sure you contract reputable experts for the function. This will include people like caterers, florists, photographers and florists. The most important thing is to ensure that these experts confirm their availability for the event.

In case very few people turn out for your function, it could be because you did not promote the event well. Publicizing the event is a very important step. Find ways of creating awareness about you event. You could print invitation cards, or use the social media depending on the audience you are targeting.

Its wise to have a score card to determine how you have performed. This will help you improve on your weaknesses when you are given the same responsibility next time. Many people ignore this evaluation stage but it is very important. In running events in Sacramento planners would find it easy if they followed the steps above.
