Scope
This was the third year ZiaBia worked with Elavon on their annual Sales Kickoff. Work started much earlier than in previous years and the venue was secured in the Summer of 2016, allowing for more planning time.
Key roles for ZiaBia included managing contracts and negotiations, logistics with the hotel and all other suppliers, building the event registration website, Delegate Management, partnering with the Production team and managing all deliveries.
Once onsite ZiaBia’s focus was delegate logistics – it was key to ensure that the delegate experience was seamless from arrival to departure. Other roles onsite for ZiaBia was to manage all suppliers, collateral and signage.
Result
This was another excellent event for Elavon. The Kickoff numbers have increased each year, as the team has grown. Everyone who attended had excellent feedback on all areas of the event including the venue and logistics, this has improved year on year. The Awards evening at the hotel was more successful than ever and using the theme of football reinforced the event message throughout the week. Delegates left feeling energised and ready for the year ahead. The event was delivered within budget and ZiaBia’s expertise and client knowledge was essential, especially during the negotiation and contracting phase.
