WelcometotheV rtua Event esourceBook!
Right now the worlds of marketing and meetings are changing, likelyforever. Due to the global economic turmoil, companies are cuttingtravel across the board or in all but customer facing situations that areidentified as critical to close business. The pendulum has swungtotally away from travel causing chaos in the physical event andmeeting market. Out of this chaos of cancelled trade shows,conferences and meetings of all types, has come the need formarketers and meeting planners to rethink their plans and look forinnovative new ways to achieve the goals of these events without thetravel. Though virtual events and virtual meetings have been around
,demand for all virtual marketing and meeting solutions.
If you are reading this now, you probably are well aware of what ishappening in the virtual events space and are one of the manymarketers and event roducers that are tr in to create a strate thatinvolves deploying virtual events in place of or in addition to, yourphysical events. What is important to understand is that this is aseismic shift that cannot be undone. Although the pendulum will swingback, it will not swing back to where things were. This is not like post9-11 or the SARS epidemic where travel came back even strongerthan ever. These difficult economic times will be with us for a long,long time and businesses will continue to look at ways to keep costs
down wherever they can.
The good news is that virtual events and meetings are working.
producers are seeing profitability increase with virtual events versus

physical events. Why? Attendance is going up because more people .
spent to participate in an event never went to the event producertheregistration fee, if there was one, was a fraction of what the attendeeand the event producer had to spend in travel, lodging, food andbeverage, AV, rental fees, etc. IBM was recently featured in a TV
interview talking about how they have saved $350,000 in just onemeeting by going virtual. Multiply that by the hundreds of thousands ofmeetings companies were doing and you can get a sense of thevastness of the potential ROI.
We dont believe that physical event will ever go away but things havec ange an t ere w e ewer p ys ca meet ngs an more v rtua ;there will be fewer people attending physical events and more attendingthe same event virtually. The technology needed to conduct virtualmeetings is improving rapidly while becoming more affordable andavailable every day. Though we cant replace the handshake in a
,image/avatar of yourself that walks, talks, sees and hears and yesthey are working on the handshake.
This book is a collection of useful resources we found at the time ofproduction. We will constantly update it and add more useful featuresand functionality. If you have feedback or want to contribute, pleaseemail us at [email protected]. Thanks and good luck with yourevents!.
