We hosted the fourth edition of Event Fresh—a gathering of event professionals and community members brought together for an evening of meaningful connection and conversation. If you were there, you’ll never forget the joy that filled the room or the effortless energy of our spacious venue, Ederer Hall in SODO. And if you missed it, consider this your insider look at Seattle’s best-kept secret—and get a preview of what’s waiting for you next year!

Raise more money by doing fewer transactions! Truth: selling more stuff to people will not make your event more successful. Deepening your relationships with those people, increasing their sense of belonging and their emotional commitment to your work absolutely WILL.  

You can use brain science to make your event more enjoyable for guests and to raise more money by removing Decision Fatigue from the equation. The solution is simplicity. Make the experience of attending your event seamless by reducing all the friction points – otherwise known as “decision points” for your guests

What are the fundraising trends in nonprofit events right now? We are seeing: sell-out crowds, late registrations, strong individual giving, delayed sponsorship commitments, and stripped-down expense budgets.

At Synchronicity, we love digging into design, strategy, planning and production so that our clients have truly awesome events. However, our greater intention is that nonprofit organizations (yes, all of them) are able to lift their events up to the next level. Lately, we’ve been trying harder than ever to give away all our secrets, and to create places and spaces where event planners can gather, network, and share their winning strategies, so everyone can win!
