Meeting and Event Planning

Planning business meetings and events requires multitasking skills and ingenuity. To succeed, you need to know the basics of meeting or event planning and how to plan effectively. Then, you must hone your skills so that you can negotiate for the best venues, vendors, and speakers for your attendees. And, if you can do all this and keep costs down — and you can! — you'll be a hit with your boss and your clients.

How to Plan Effective Business Meetings and Events

Organization and preparation are key when planning a business meeting or event. You have to cover all the basics from reviewing the content of the meeting to accommodating the attendees. Use the tips in the following list for successful meeting and event planning:
  • Make sure meeting objectives are clear and concise.
  • Determine whether it's necessary to meet at all, or whether you can accomplish your objectives in another way.
  • Choose the right meeting location — one with the right number, size, and shape of meeting rooms.
  • Make sure that you know and understand all the services provided by the facility, as well as its cancellation policies.
  • Invite only the people who need to attend.
  • Gather exact contact information for everyone involved in the event.
  • Stick to the set meeting agenda.
  • Evaluate the meeting or event after it's over.

Basic Responsibilities of Meeting and Event Planning

What does the job of planning a business meeting or event entail? Entire books are dedicated to answering that question, but the following list includes the fundamentals a planner must expect to coordinate:
  • Site selection
  • Hotel accommodations
  • Travel arrangements
  • Food
  • Speakers and entertainment
  • Audiovisual equipment
  • Recreational activities
  • Decorations
  • Printing
  • Gifts and awards
  • Personnel

Venues to Choose when Planning a Meeting or Event

Choosing the right site for a business event is critical — it's the framework for your whole effort. When seeking a venue for a meeting or event, you have several options. Depending on the number of people attending and the type of event, you can go the traditional conference center route or try a road — or a cruise ship — less traveled. The following list contains places to consider when selecting a site:
  • Hotels
  • Conference centers
  • Convention centers
  • Resorts
  • Retreat centers
  • Cruise ships
  • Unique environments, such as museums, stately homes, sporting venues, and theaters.
When in doubt about the choices available in a specific location, ask the local Convention and Visitors Bureau in your destination city for advice.

Valkyrie's resident DJ

Ace Ramos

If you are a hard core clubber you definitely know who DJ Ace Ramos is. He has been in the industry for God knows how long. And indeed, he is one of the renowned  DJ in the Philippines. He is very keen in mixing and mashing up hip-hop, R&B, electro, EDM and other chart topping hits. Reason why party people on the dance floor until morning.
His popularity in the clubbing industry brought him to share the stage with the world's renowned  DJ's like Martin Garrix. He started his career in the 90's and he is still the most sought after DJ among all the clubs in the Metro. And yes! he is a resident DJ of my most-loved club! VALKYRIE! Yey!

I read one of his interview in an online magazine and was ask how things have turned out for him. DJ Ace Ramos replied : "It is how you market yourself and how strong your network is " . I'll keep this in mind because as a club promoter this applies to me. I also believe in this one because in this industry image is everything. Well, in any other job you have to project the right image as well . However in the club industry it is really a fast paced environment. And you have to cope up with it. I should say. 
To experience the ingenuity of DJ Ace Ramos come and visit Valkyrie every Wednesday to Saturday. You may visit Valkyrie Manila at The Palace for updates about events at Valkyrie .
