Would you believe me if I told you I used this template to plan my birthday parties? 🎁 😉 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Similarities between different types of events 00:53 My experience planning and managing events 01:36 Who is this course for? 01:59 Snippet from Skillshare Course 04:58 Access the Google Sheets template
I'm a part of an org on campus that hosts events for students and have been looking for a way to improve out management. Perfect timing as always Jeff!
Seriously we all need some planning and structure for different events in life and at work. This video is so underrated! Keep up the good work Jeff, I see that you've invested a lot in this course by filling in all the details in this template :D
So you're an angel who parties like a gangster at high end clubs but you're a peasant. You need Event Management just to keep up with your many roles... To be serious, though, I loved the video. Thanks Jeff!
Heeey, awesome video again! Said that several times by now. I really appreciate that you put together a course and share resources. I'll definitely free up time to take it.
Heyy Jeff, this video was absolutely nice!! The way of keeping a track of things has been exceptional from your end. I have a slight problem here. Since I m a 3rd year bachelor's student learning computer science, we aren't familiarised with this event management concepts nor we have any prior experience. Hence it looks totally new to us. It would have been better if you could explain a bit more deep to the freshers who are learning or those people who have taken a turn towards Event Management. Frankly speaking, these things really went like bouncers on the top of my head. I hope you understand!! Thanks and have a good day!!! Cheers!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! The template is beautiful and has a lot of great formatting and formulas I didn't even know you could use like the "Days until event" - genius!
It’s interesting to know how broad marketing can be :o I used to be under the impression that marketing=sales (my first principles of marketing class quickly dispelled that thought though) but now I’m finding out how prevalent event planning can be in some marketing roles, pretty cool stuff :3 Thanks for the video!
Sales and marketing are VERY different 😂, glad to hear that this video also cleared some of that confusion up! And within marketing there are many many differences as well, for example the responsibilities of a growth marketer are very different than those of a product marketer!
This is the first time I heard about growth marketers :o I did a quick Google search and by the looks of it, they’re almost the opposite of a product marketer 👀 I’m just remembering how you mentioned in a previous video that you liked seeing the impact you’re making 😆 considering how growth marketing has a longer time horizon and thus won’t give results as quickly, I can see why you didn’t go that route haha
Thanks so much for the feedback! That's something I've been thinking about. I think if I do, it'll still be around very "practical" concepts involving specific workflows instead of concepts :)
Hi, just recently discovered your channel and found it very useful. Thanks for all the work and tips. Can you make more videos on constructing an outstanding resume / CV would be very helpful. Any tips would be a blessing.
@@JeffSu Yes, I have found it very helpful but i don’t know how to showcase the work I have done over the years without using the cliche terms and language. Using such vocabulary has become unavoidable and I feel that would not make my CV stand out. Any inputs are welcome.
One last request- could you also tell us how are you so energetic in all your videos. How do you stay motivated to be productive. Love the vibes and the energy you give out. Thank you.
This is sooo helpful, clear, detailed, pertinent info.. I really like how professional you are. Is it possible to connect at linkedin? I'm working for EDA company, Cadence. Bertrand G.
I know this video was 2 years ago but hopefully you will respond to my comment. By any chance, do you have a video where you elaborate more every sheets of the google sheets? Also, can we edit the survey form based on our event and how.
hi jeff! can i ask if you ever considered using notion for event planning? :0 and if you did, if you could share a template for that? context: my main concern right now is figuring out the timeline for event preparations, and i found that using notion really helped me visualize work timelines and deliverables as well as create filter views for separate departments to look at. however, after watching this video, i realized that there's a lot more information that i should be making available to my team & wondered if i could replicate what you did on googlesheets to notion just as effectively. thanks for making such great videos & tutorials! 🎉
Great video. You got me to watch your entire lesson on skillshare. It should be very helpful as we move forward with a small conference of 40-50 people. I wonder if you have any suggestions for logistical in-person event stuff like badges, arrival and hotel booking, and stuff like that. We are also looking for a very simple conference app solution that can have a brochure, schedule, speaker bios, local info, and in-app messaging. Any suggestions would be splashing! Thanks again for your content. I would keep my skill share account if there were more deep dives from you on it. peace.
Wow that's great to hear Daniel, hope it was helpful! To be very honest when it comes to event execution, I highly recommend hiring an event agency (they're usually very affordable, even for SMBs) since they already have the tools and processes in place for running the entire event from beginning to end. Conference app would be a bit more complicated (and expensive) so I honestly recommend creating the agenda online (using Google Docs or Notion)
Well, I have a diploma in event management, and I was aspiring to something systematic. Perhaps I could learn from someone who would not have long experience in this field, like you.
@@JeffSu Oh! I thought you had a degree too! This might surprise me😅... Yes, I have a diploma in event management and I took it from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia... but I want to learn more about it.
This video is really helpful, thank you! I tried to download the link to the event template but it doesn't seem to work. Are you able to share it with me please?
Great video, Jeff! Do you have a version of this file in Excel, or do you only work out of Google Sheets? It’s an incredible resource either way, just curious. Thanks!
Hi! 2 years later, are you still using google sheets? have you explored other project management softwares like asana and salesforce? how do you think they compare to your structure?
@jeffsu I am looking for a short intro video on someone's personal journey on how they became professional event planning for a free resource for high school students-- would you do one? I hope you consider!
