Increasing Attendance Rates (38.5%)
One of the primary challenges for event organisers is translating registrations into actual attendance. This has gotten harder since the pandemic. Autumn Live tackles this issue head-on by offering robust engagement tools. Using registration platforms that provide automated reminders and personalised communication options allow for greater personal choice. Clear comms are a priority – we don’t believe you can over-communicate, as long as the messages actually add value to the reader. Each interaction provides a greater opportunity to keep attendees excited and committed. These strategies enhance the likelihood of converting registrations into active participation, ultimately boosting attendance rates.
Efficient Management of Attendees (32.3%)
Managing attendees before, during, and after events can be a logistical nightmare without the right tools. Autumn Live streamlines this process with intuitive attendee management systems. From easy registration and check-in procedures to real-time analytics, organisers can efficiently oversee every aspect of attendee management. This ensures a smooth and organised event execution, leaving both organisers and attendees with a positive experience. As the incredible Maya Angelou quote goes: “I\’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
Finding Suitable Venues (27.7%)
Autumn Live recognises the importance of finding the perfect venue to complement an event\’s goals and aligning a venue to your values.

Diversity in speakers contributes to a well-rounded and inclusive event.
