Brand the Elevators

May 21, 2015  by Betsy Johnson

An event’s theme and brand play a vital role in its success. Countless hours are spent developing and refining an event’s brand and tagline, then more time is spent adding visual life to that tagline. Maximizing opportunities to expand that tagline or brand outside of the meeting space can be an effective way to add value to an event. 

At recent three-day user conference, I counted the number of times that I stood in the lobby elevator bank waiting for an open elevator. It was 17 times! However, as with most events, I spend the majority of my time in the general session ballroom, but it occurred to me that most attendees would spend considerably more time waiting in an elevator bank.

Branding the Elevators

This is where the idea of elevator clings popped into my head. Elevator clings are an interesting and relatively inexpensive way to extend an events theme beyond the general session space. And I have to admit I much prefer elevator clings to window clings… 

When you are on an event site, you jump in and help wherever you are needed, even if that means the director, graphics producer, and audio lead get the job of helping the meeting planner hang window clings in Mexico City. It is a fun story, ask me sometime and I will gladly share it with you—just hopefully not while we are hanging window clings.

From producing the general session to providing tech support for breakout rooms, capturing headshots and event photography, and filming testimonials, we were proud to be a full-service partner for this multi-day event. When the welcome reception outgrew its original space late in the planning process, we quickly adapted the general session setup to keep the event flowing seamlessly. #eventproduction #liveevents #corporateevents #trimarq

The @wilson.center.arts continues to shine as a co The @wilson.center.arts continues to shine as a cornerstone of creativity and community in Greater Milwaukee. Each year, their "Big Event" brings together supporters to celebrate the power of the arts and the impact of their programming.

Tri-Marq was proud to once again collaborate with the Center to produce a video for this prestigious event. This year’s video focused on an amazing collaboration that brought a multi-Grammy-winning artist to both the stage and to share at a local school, showing how the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center contributes to the community beyond its walls to share the love of the arts with all ages.

It serves as a powerful tool for both awareness and fundraising and a testament to the importance of the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center as a hub of artistic excellence.
