Handle venue selection, sponsorship arrangements, vendor relationships, catering, booth setup, signage, promotional items, shipping, and travel logistics.
Develop event schedules and keep colleagues, speakers, partners, and vendors aligned and on track.
Produce landing pages, invites, social content, email outreach, and other materials to promote events.
Work with speakers on presentations, demos, and run-of-show planning.
Serve as a professional face for PhoenixAI and ensure attendees have a positive, welcoming experience.
Make sure leads gathered at events are logged accurately and passed along to sales without delay.
Partner with sales ahead of each event to define target accounts, meeting objectives, and follow-up plans.
Monitor sign-ups, turnout, meetings held, qualified leads, pipeline impact, and event spend.
Keep an up-to-date calendar of upcoming conferences, sponsorship options, and community gatherings.
