Events produce the highest daily yield of any sector of the tourism industry. The business events sector contributes an estimated $17.6 billion a year to the national economy, generating 116,000 jobs. In Perth alone there are over 600 function and event venues and countless other suppliers.
The Event Development Network provides extensive consultation to venues and services in the event industry. Whether you already service event clients or if you are considering entering the market, consistently developing your product is essential.
Our team has experience with all types of suppliers and venues and we have extensive client relationships. We have worked in sales and operations at major venues and can confidently help you with your venue or business.
Often all your business needs is a fresh pair of eyes to consider areas in which to capitalise. We can help identify and source new business, reduce your operating costs, assist with legislative compliance, prepare policy and even develop environmental initiatives. Consultancy can be as informal and as short as a few hours, or can be ongoing formal business planning.
Areas in which we consult include, but are not limited to:
Indentifying new market segments in which your business or venue suits
Cost-effective marketing solutions to build your brand
Maximising revenue and usage
Increasing enquiries
Menu preparation and cost reduction
Security services
Preparation of policies and strategies to reduce waste and expenditure
