    Happy Monday, Cvent Community! It's time for the next Huddle of the Week!

    Last week, I made a blog post about 2 stats I've been thinking about lately.

    From 2023 to 2024:  

    • The average marketing team went from hosting 14 events yearly to 29.
    • Almost a quarter of respondents said a single event takes 60+ hours, all in, to execute.   


      To me, there are two major takeaways here:       

      1. Businesses are doubling down on the power of events (we love that!), especially the smaller, repeatable ones. 
      2. However, most haven't totally figured out how to make them scalable.  

         
        🚀 That's why we built Cvent Essentials. 

        • Cvent Essentials is a simplified event management solution for smaller, high-volume in-person events.  
        • We moved into General Availability in April after an extended beta period. 

             
            ⚙️ Under the hood: 

            • Pre-approved templates: Create on-brand, compliant event pages using standardized templates - no more starting from scratch.
            • Simplified event management: Launch a professional event website in minutes, collect registrations, and maintain your guest list. 
            • Promotional tools: Use templates to create and schedule emails, from your invitation to reminders to post-event follow-ups. 
            • Effortless on-site: Use of OnArrival for seamless attendee check-in on any personal device, including easy handling of walk-in registration.
            • Enhanced engagement: Keep your attendees in the mix with tools for real-time polling, Q&A, and feedback surveys 
            • Instant Analytics: View your attendance metrics in real time and automatically sync registration to connected systems (e.g., CRMs and MAPs). 

                         

                        ❓ Questions for you: 

                        • What challenges have you faced in managing your field marketing events that you think Cvent Essentials could help solve? 
                        • What features of Cvent Essentials are you most excited about and why? 

                             

                            🙋                             Want to learn more about Cvent Essentials? 

                            Contact your account team to schedule an end-to-end demo.   
                            They'll show you how Essentials can make your event program more efficient, consistent, on-brand, and compliant.
