Five Years of Synchronicity
Join us in marking our fifth anniversary as we reminisce about the incredible journey that has unfolded through the years.
How We Do It: Event Production
The Synchronicity Team is in the midst of an exciting fall event production season! You know life is good when we end up wearing ‘tape bracelets’ for the day
How We Do It: Event Planning
What’s the process that takes great ideas and turns them into magical event moments that actually happen? We call that PLANNING
How We Do It: Event Design
Thoughtful event design is your opportunity to create a great experience for the workers, volunteers, stage speakers, and organization staff during the event (not JUST a great event for the event guests)!
How We Do It: Event Strategy
This will be a mini-series of blog posts to reveal what we do when we work on events! We will also provide guidance and tips that will help you and your team to succeed. Let’s start with the first phase: Strategy.
Testing, Testing, 1,2,3
Your event deserves great sound! For live music, this is a must. For hybrid events, it’s beyond vital. And for even the simplest event with just one person on a microphone, this can make or break your engagement!
Event Hosts – Engage Your Audience, Enhance Your Event
Another important element in a successful and meaningful event is the onstage host. Whether they call themselves an emcee, fundraising host, or fundraising auctioneer, having a powerful presence onstage to start and end your program, introduce other speakers and program elements, and facilitate the logistics and engagement are more important than ever.
Getting Creative with On-Stage Donation Displays
A donation display is an effective tool we use to show and motivate guests and donors to reach the event’s fundraising goal.
Online Bidding and Your In-Person Event
Access, view, share, and bid at your own time and space. The magic of online auctions is here to bring spark to our fundraisers.
Help Yourself: Buffet Meals are on Trend!
We have another hot and juicy event strategy that we want to share with you! Buffet-style service is nothing new of course, but it is a new trend for many of our clients.
Check out our latest blog post to learn more about how this helps make our events more fun and cost-efficient.
QR Codes For The Win!
There’s a simple event tool that should not be overlooked. Check out this post to learn how our clients are using QR codes to drive engagement!
Hybrid Event Strategies
In-person events are certainly coming back in full force, and many organizations are still thinking deeply about how to connect with remote audiences. What have we learned after two full years of hybrid events? Check it out!
Live Performances
Worried that live performances are too risky for your live event? Or too expensive and “not worth the fuss”? We’d like to assure you that this isn’t the case!
Help Your Planner Win
At Synchronicity, we love collaborating. Whether you’re working with us, or any other event planner, check out a few of our top tips to help us help you!
When to Hire
With the fall fundraising season fast approaching, you may be asking yourself: When is the right time to hire a planner for my big event?
Moving Forward
In the current phase of the pandemic, we are looking hopefully towards the horizon and feeling the momentum as our clients are booking many, many in-person events! For some folks, it feels like things are “getting BACK to normal.” Here at Synchronicity, we see this as a great opportunity to move FORWARD instead.
