At Showit, we know a few things about conference planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We've hosted conferences and events for over a decade as a company. They're kind of a big part of what we do, and we make sure to reserve resources every year just to make sure they happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It started with United which was a conference built for photographers. But, recently we've pivoted and focused the content of our conferences on brand and web designers. Thus, Spark<\/a> was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do we love conferences so much?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There's just nothing like being in a room of like minded people who are all trying to grow and develop themselves to bring about a better future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the world gets more and more online, it's so important to make sure that you're building and fostering relationships IRL…aka, AFK (away from keyboard for those of you who don't have tweens).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we prioritize our conferences every year…even though we are a tech company, AND, even though it's a big push for us every year we put it on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we thought we'd take a minute and let you peek behind the scenes at our own conference planning to see how the sausage is made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We know first hand that it doesn't matter how awesome the speaker lineup is or how cool the location might be if you don't spend time strategically thinking through all the details of the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, here are 10 things we do every year to make sure we run a killer conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
