Can your event platform help me achieve [specific goal]?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by identifying the specific goals you want to achieve, such as increasing member engagement, driving more revenue from events, or helping members earn CE credits. The types of events you run will determine which features and capabilities you need from an event tech vendor. Ask the provider how their solution can directly address your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Is this product designed for association events like mine?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all event technology solutions are created equal. Some may be designed for specific industries or event formats. Ensure the provider&#8217;s product is flexible enough to support your meeting and event requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"363\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association-1024x363.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association-1024x363.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association-768x272.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association-216x77.jpg 216w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association-700x248.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Association.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Can you share case studies of similar organizations using this product?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/best-in-person-event-examples\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Case studies<\/a> provide valuable insights into how the solution has been implemented at similar events and the results that were achieved. They can also help you convince other stakeholders of the technology&#8217;s value and help get your budget approved. Ask the vendor to share relevant case studies or customer stories so you can better understand the product&#8217;s capabilities and potential impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Will the platform integrate with my existing tools?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your association likely uses an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">association management software (AMS)<\/a> or a CRM tool.<br>Choosing event management software that seamlessly integrates with your existing tech stack makes it easier to manage your event data and create a consistent experience for attendees. Ask about the provider&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/services\/event-technology-stack-integration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">off-the-shelf integrations<\/a> and their ability to facilitate custom integrations and any associated costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. How can the platform help me promote my events and register attendees?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step to running successful association events is getting your members (and potential members!) excited to register and attend. That means you need an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/blog\/best-event-websites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eye-catching event website<\/a> that encourages members to register, entices non-members to sign up, and makes it easy for them to do so via the right registration solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Customizable registration forms are crucial for capturing relevant attendee data and accommodating different participant types\u2013especially for large events with a variety of attendees (e.g., members, non-members, sponsors, exhibitors, and speakers). Learn about the provider&#8217;s registration capabilities, including payment options and potential processing fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"363\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration-1024x363.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration-1024x363.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration-768x272.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration-216x77.jpg 216w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration-700x248.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/registeration.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. How do attendees access the platform?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ensure the event platform is readily accessible for all of your members and attendees. Ask about supported devices, apps, and web browsers, as well as any limitations on the number of admins or users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure you understand how attendees can access the platform and which devices are supported (i.e., iPhone, Android, tablet, laptop).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. What sponsorship opportunities does the platform facilitate?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Events offer a valuable opportunity to drive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/blog\/non-dues-revenue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">non-dues revenue<\/a> for your association. Ask about the platform&#8217;s capabilities to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/blog\/design-event-sponsorship-package\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">promote your sponsors<\/a> and partners. For instance, does it support banner ads? Can your sponsor companies create robust profiles?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Explore how the platform can facilitate sponsorships, such as through additional brand exposure opportunities or extended content availability, and how easily it can help you prove sponsor ROI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or, does this platform offer additional tools you can resell to your exhibitors and sponsors? Many associations offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/event-lead-capture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Exhibitor Lead Capture<\/a> to earn non-dues revenue and offset the cost of running their events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. What engagement and networking features do you offer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Interactive features like live chat, anonymous Q&amp;A, polls, and activity feeds can significantly enhance attendee engagement and increase networking opportunities. Evaluate the provider&#8217;s engagement features and ensure they can support event goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. How user-friendly is the platform?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A user-friendly platform is essential for ensuring high adoption rates among your attendees. Ask about the platform&#8217;s intuitiveness and evaluate its UI yourself to decide how steep the learning curve will be for different groups of attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Does your platform support ongoing member engagement?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of your event goals is likely to increase member retention. You should ask potential event tech providers if their platform can be used to drive member engagement in the downtime between large events. Find out how you can use their platform year-round to continue to provide value to members, keep them engaged, and promote your annual conference so you don\u2019t have to start your marketing back from zero each year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, can the platform help you drive member engagement by offering a persistent home for networking and learning? Can you use it to host videos, interactive livestream sessions, and smaller networking or training events?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Is your platform compliant with data security standards?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Data security and privacy should be a top priority when handling attendee information. Ask the provider about their security measures and compliance with industry standards such as SOC 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2-1024x349.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2-1024x349.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2-300x102.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2-768x261.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2-216x74.jpg 216w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2-700x238.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.eventmobi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/SOC2.jpg 1275w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. How can I protect my content?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to share valuable content or resources through the event platform, it&#8217;s essential to understand the provider&#8217;s content protection measures, such as access controls, passwords, or login requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">13. How does your pricing work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Event technology pricing models vary from provider to provider, and may be based on the number of users, or the number of events., Some vendors may offer subscription pricing, or charge extra for additional features. Be sure to uncover any add-ons so you can be confident the vendor\u2019s pricing aligns with your budget and requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">14. Do you offer any additional services?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many providers offer additional services to their event platform, such as live attendee support, graphic design, data management, or event production. Ask about these services and their associated costs, as they can help alleviate the workload for your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15. What kind of support do you offer, and when is it available?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Reliable customer support is crucial, especially during your event. Ask about the provider&#8217;s support channels (chat, email, phone), availability hours, and any additional training or resources offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>&#8220;I would say the biggest benefit of using EventMobi is the support.
