You’ve planned the event, prepped the speaker and got the seats filled with participants! So exciting. Now for the fun part. In this previous blog post we shared all about what prepping for an event with See in Colors services looks like, and in this post we are going to tell you all about our day-of duties.

You’ve planned the event, prepped the speaker and got the seats filled with participants! So exciting. Now for the fun part.

We make sure to arrive early to set up, stocked with our markers and paper, supplies that we take care of. We know what tools of the trade work best to make your content pop off of the page. We set everything up in a spot that works best for your preference and the room layout. We end up in a spot where we are able to create, but also listen in to what is being shared. Our role is to listen closely and synthesize the information. We sketchnote the essence of the conversation, drawing out major quotes, tidbits, key takeaways and more.

Think of our team as your “visual thinking partners.” We keep in mind the audience that is at your event and how they will retain the information that is being shared. If you are anything like us, and the science backs this theory up, most of us are visual learners. While lectures and keynotes are amazingly helpful and insightful to industry teachings, trends, etc. – visuals are the way to go when sharing information. We make sure to tap into this learning style when we design and doodle our materials.

We draw a visual that represents your event well and shares major themes that you audience is looking for. Items like key phrases, major pull quotes, fresh ideas and more. We include other marketing items into our creations like your event hashtag or your company’s brand colors and logo. We wrap up everything on-site, filling in any last minute details or phrases that may have been missed once the event has completed. It all comes together in a one of a kind presentation, perfect for social media sharing as well as a fun item to display in the office. While we may take a few photos ourselves of the finished product, the physical chart is yours to keep.

Told you this was the fun part! We love working with companies and businesses to bring a fun and fresh new element to their event program. Want to learn more? Visit our services page here!
