Creative Thinking:

… a bold concept is the glue which holds an event together.

 

Strategic Thinking:

… built on tangible goals + what we do Before, At and After the event.

We have no time for: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!”

  • This is the slogan of the complacent / arrogant / scared
  • It’s just an excuse for inaction

Our offer is NOT a ‘box of solutions’ that are looking for a challenge!

WHY ... Gala Dinners & Themed Awards Events

MORE INFO
  • We connect Award Celebrations to the ‘heart’ & ‘intellect’

  • Build on Frequent, Specific, Timely & Positive recognition

  • Explain WHY winners have won, so that others emulate

  • Reveal Heroes, who best personify your culture & values

  • Maximise the Awards to link with Local / National publicity

The invitation, the venue, the staging & dressing, the lighting, the prizes, the menu and the presenters are just some of the ingredients that help to turn these events into an outstanding success.

Talk to us about your ideas and we will build on them. Our directors have a wealth of experience in making Awards Events & Themed Dinners truly memorable.

Showcasing WHY someone is being recognised is all part of how you inspire people & performance … yet this is often reduced to a list of nominations and the name of a winner!
Let’s talk about HOW you shine a light on ‘today’s heroes’ (who best personify the culture & values embedded within your organisation) … and HOW this can become a catalyst for the next generation.

We can offer full event management … or any part thereof:

  • Full Invitation Process & Design
  • Registration & Guest Management
  • Venue Finding & Management (also Structures & VIP / private locations)
  • Site Design & Layout
  • Bespoke Theming & Room Dressing (ask about our theming lists)
  • Catering (we work very closely with chefs to create / develop the menu)
  • Event Staff / Security / Host / Hostesses / Valet Parking
  • On-site Management Logistics
  • Video / Film and all content creation
  • Entertainment Procurement (often direct, so no agent fees)
  • Motivational, Celebrity & Guest Speakers (often direct, so no agent fees)
  • Health & Safety, Risk Assessment

 

9 TOP TIPS

Budget Transparency: Without this, we will be continually revising the feasibility of what you can and cannot afford … in terms of staging ideas and production values.

Audience Demographics: We like to innovate, but ideas and concepts need to be relevant to an audience demographic. Use our unique event-mapping process, which takes out a lot of the guesswork!

Changes & Updates: The key to this is open, regularly updated, communication … this way we can factor in any changes that need to be made … particularly if numbers rise, as this can have a major impact on floorplan and technical staging.

Timeplan: A good, agreed, production timeplan ensures that scripts / content and technical needs all come together with no dramas. Make a plan and encourage everyone to stick to it!

Walk-Up / Stings: These can be ‘busked’ or ‘planned’ … we have the music library and the experience to make it happen on the night … but if you want something more bespoke / tailored then this should be part of the planning process.

Comfort Monitors, Autocue & Coaching: If you have screens projecting content, then you will need comfort monitor/s to enable you to see what is on the screen, without having to turn around. You also may wish to consider the use of Autocue and/or some proper scheduled rehearsal time, with a coach / mentor.

Presenter / Entertainer ‘Riders’: If you have contracted a professional presenter or entertainers, then there are likely to be ‘contract riders’ … which state their ‘expectations’. (These can sometimes be somewhat onerous) It’s important to share this with the production team, as early as possible, to avoid any pre-event ‘upsets’!

Show Caller: On more complex Awards Events this is a ‘given’ (particularly when there are a lot of Video Cues and ‘Live’ elements). Discuss this, early in the production process with your production / account manager.

Sound Checks, Rehearsals & Crew: Just remember that time for sound-checks & rehearsals needs to be factored in. That may affect when the initial crew ‘get-in’ takes place … which may mean that you need to book the venue for the evening or the day before! Also look carefully at the working hours of the crew (especially if the same crew are rigging AND running the show) Tired crew are not safe. You may need to double crew … and it shouldn’t cost more, as they are likely to charge you for each 12-hour shift, anyway. Discuss this, in detail, at the planning stage!

    to transport large numbers of people to ONE venue.

  • Collective experience with local colleagues + Memories!

A travelling series of events is often the right solution and it’s something that we have been doing for 35+ years (nationally and globally)

WHY ... XPREZ Exhibitions

MORE INFO
  • Because so many of our events are underfunded
    by our client’s suppliers, on a Win-Win basis.

  • We get actively engaged with the total process and deliver
    internal / external events that are often 100% supplier funded

  • We also design / build exhibition stands for other markets!

For Example: It’s easy to see how we have achieved this with a high street electrical retailer + Branch Managers audience, but exactly how we secured and managed a £350k Win-Win Supplier Funding deal for an ‘Operations Excellence’ 2-day training workshop, for 1,000 restaurant mangers (from a global chain of franchised & company owned hamburger fast food restaurants) probably requires a bigger stretch of imagination. So, let’s talk!

Supplier exhibitions, like these, need to be Win-Win, albeit that conference content cannot be compromised. For sponsors, this is a golden opportunity to meet, connect, build rapport and use the event as a live ‘research’ session. In our experience, most suppliers are willing to realistically fund this, as part of the ‘cost of doing business’ with a client (if it’s positioned properly).

For a well-known high street chemist, we took this one stage further and themed the entire exhibition as a series of ‘desert islands’, to match an incentive strategy (we also added a competition element for all the internal support functions to create an articulation of the value they provide to the business, in the same theme) USE PICS PROVIDED

When negotiating these ‘deals’ we offer suppliers focussed help with maximising their exhibition presence … whether it’s supplying a range of shell scheme exhibition stands, display boards or something much more sophisticated, with active & involving ‘activities’ to attract the delegates.

Quite simply, we can offer you ALL the support you need … from working with your procurement function / buyers … to visualising how the exhibition scheme + stands + display boards will look … to a fully detailed survey report, so that we can estimate exactly how many stands you require (in a given venue) to achieve the desired result.

We offer a wide range of services, including:

  • Shell Scheme Exhibition Stands
  • Exhibition Display / Poster boards
  • Display Panels / PopUps
  • Carpeting / Flooring / Seating Hire
  • Stand Lighting + electrical power sockets
  • Furniture Hire
  • Catwalks and Stage areas

In addition, we can offer a variety of other sponsorship packages … PechaKutcha Sessions, Seminars, Catering Point, Visitor Badging /Lanyard and so much more!

VenueMap: In 1985, we created the first ever collaborative ‘scored’ venue & location ‘knowledge infrastructure’. Venue finding is not just about ‘bricks & mortar’. The quality of a venue’s sales & operations people (and their can-do / flexible / agile attitude) really matters. This is a changing situation and we measure / monitor it through a unique mix of performance metrics.

Connections matter … we regularly deal at Director / Regional Management level to achieve best market rates through multi-client / multi venue deals & significant added-value inclusions.

Full Service … including assertive negotiation of terms / conditions / cancellation mitigation, plus detailed site inspections, Health & Safety, Risk Assessment … and a lot more!

WHY ... Team Building / Development

MORE INFO
  • There is no ‘one-fits-all’ formula for team success, but unique
    experiences build better relationships and help break ‘barriers’

  • We develop self aware, inspirational & emotionally intelligent
    leaders & interdependent, self-reliant, high-performing teams.

  • What is your challenge / opportunity? Let’s talk

Our extensive range of event concepts, our ability to tailor them to any situation, to any goal, to any group, anywhere … and to deliver all of that, with a meticulous eye for organisational detail (and within specific budget constraints) will resonate with you. Talk with our clients, they will tell you about ‘the added value’ we have provided, since 1980.

AT THE OTHER END: we can support your Learning & Development function by helping to develop self aware, inspirational and emotionally intelligent leaders (and interdependent, self reliant, high performing teams) … by taking modern, project based, experiential management development techniques (combining them in highly innovative ways) which fundamentally challenge the way people think and act.

The Result: because it is experienced emotionally as well as intellectually (which is real, remembered and applied back at work) gives a measurable return on your training investment.

Our programmes usually involve a series of interlocking business-focused projects (reproducing similar demands, pressures and challenges faced by everyone at work) … but free from the influence of organisational culture, status and function. These situations do not require role playing for their achievement.

Robust facilitation is the critical factor, for an effective learning experience. The Tutors are experienced business people, often currently working in senior management positions within industry and commerce. They not only have the personal skills and qualities to enable teams to learn and develop, but have the knowledge of current business practice to connect the learning with clients’ commercial objectives. For us, it’s about making a tangible difference and satisfying pre-agreed measurable, behavioural and performance metrics.

  • Unlike others, it’s NOT a box of team building toys looking for customers.
  • It IS about people, context, expectations & how you will recognise success.
  • We offer robust ideas, advice, plan-do-review assistance and a lot more!
  • We Make it Happen … at your place of work … or at a venue, anywhere.
