Our friends at HSMAI and Affordable Meetings polled attendees of their recent Mid-America show, and found that 49% percent of the meeting planners feel increased pressure to show metrics and statistics to portray the success of events.
Meeting planners said the most common measurement indicators are:
- event evaluations/satisfaction surveys
- net revenue
- attendance size
- room night count
- sponsorships
- ability to stay within budget
- rate of repeat attendance
- level of responsiveness to client needs
- increased service per attendee per dollars spent
Meeting planners also listed their top five factors for venue selection:
- size of the meeting space
- guest room cleanliness
- customer service
- location of the venue
- price
As a meeting planner, do you agree with these trends? What is most important to you? How are you achieving these measurement indicators?
