Why you need to market your event - and why you should hire MBD Marketing & Events to do so!1/22/2023
A good event attracts visitors, a great event draws a crowd. Marketing and events, while completely different concepts, go hand in hand. What is event marketing? When it comes to company or corporate events, event marketing is the term used to describe any event where a company’s product or service is promoted. Marketing events can be anything from a small gathering of like minded customers/followers, to a large scale industry convention. These events can be live and in-person, or held online, like webinars and meetings. Any event where you can showcase your product or service can be promoted through event marketing. This marketing campaign is built much like any other campaign - with clear goals, strategy, and a timeline that begins well before the event and includes follow up outreach after the event. This same structure can also be applied to any community gathering or large scale event. Why you need to consider event marketing in your plans The main goal of any event - whether it’s for business or fun - is to bring people together. Event awareness is key. If you are planning a business or organizational event, including event marketing into your plans will help you:
Most importantly, event marketing allows you to build strong, in-person, relationships and trust with current and prospective customers. Business events help engage customers on a personal level. Trends in event marketing There are numerous studies out there that provide statistics proving why event marketing should be part of your company’s general marketing strategy. In a world that continues to focus more and more on digital advertising, emails, and online content, event marketing offers a personal touch that many customers are craving.
How to incorporate event marketing into your overall strategy Even though we feel event marketing is more successful than any digital advertising campaign, in terms of reaching current and potential customers, we don’t suggest ignoring your digital marketing channels when it comes to event promotions. Social media and email campaigns are great tools for event promotions. Scheduling your event on an online community calendar, such as a local chamber calendar of events, is a great way to connect with other businesses and customers in the greater community. Social media is a great tool for pre and post event promotions and wrap up. Create event hashtags to promote on social media. Schedule posts to build up excitement for your event. Create engaging and exciting visuals to share a few weeks before your event, and to thank guests and partners following the event. Promote your event in relevant LinkedIn or Facebook groups. The possibilities are endless! Create a messaging campaign for your social media and online channels that promotes the event, allows you to tag event partners and vendors (a super easy way to increase the size of your audience), and thank customers and event attendees afterwards.

MBD Marketing & Events had such a blast with this young event, in it's 2nd year of awesomeness! This fresh event brought the energy of the classic TV show Supermarket Sweep to Northern Colorado. Partners raffled off the chance to win three top prizes— $1000, $750, and $500 shopping spree at Lucky’s Market. Then on April 3rd, our winners shopped with just 4 minutes to grab whatever they could (with a few hidden prizes along the way). The NoCo Grocery Grab is a FUN event that gives our community a chance to have their own Supermarket Sweep. MBD is the proud planning partner and cheerleaders of a fun way to raise money for a great non-profit! Special thanks to all of the event sponsors, 99.9 The Point's BIG ROB, Dick Knapp Photography and the Partners board and staff! Small Business. Big Impact.

Often when interviewing couples we ask them to describe their vision for the day and what they are most looking forward to. Most everyone wants their day to be original, unique, and memorable! We've worked with a gal who can give couples that original and memorable element you are looking for on your Big Day. Meet our friend, Sharon Glassman! ![]() Colorado weddings are beautifully unique. My name is Sharon Glassman. I create custom wedding songs that celebrate your Big Day in a uniquely personal way. My happy, original love songs have a Colorado acoustic sound that pairs beautifully with the setting and your special wedding day. I call my songs Smile Songs because the music, lyrics and mood of each song makes folks smile. (And cry happy tears sometimes, too.) Here’s how I create your custom wedding song: 1 We chat in a friendly, easy way, about your life, your love story, your wedding plans. Your dreams. Anything you’d like to share and celebrate! How you met, where you got engaged. Your dog’s name. Favorite pizza. Mountain. Or flower. Sentimental is great. Serious rocks. Silly’s great, too. It’s all about you. 2 Next? I write an original acoustic song that celebrates moments. Words. Images you’re shared. Instrumentation can be pure and simple as me and my guitar. I can also add mandolin, fiddle, bass and harmony vocals. 3 Then: I record your song for you and deliver it as a high quality mp3. You can add it to your DJs set list. Play it during your wedding ceremony. Or first dance. I also design personalized Smile Songs wedding song posters and art print. They play your song when you scan the QR code in the design! Great event artwork and to enjoy at home. Here are some of my love songs and singing poster designs. I’d love to work with you to create a unique, custom wedding song that sings to your heart and ears.

Outfit ideas for your graduate:
Pre-Dinner: Champagne and Strawberries Why: A sexy appetizer to get your taste buds ready. Drink: A glass of red wine Why: Grape skins contain the antioxidant resveratrol, the closest thing we have to an actual aphrodisiac. It increases estrogen production, say Northwestern University researchers, and that heightens sexual appetite and makes lubrication easier for her later in the evening. Red wines from muscadine grapes have a higher resveratrol content than other reds do, say researchers at Mississippi State University. Appetizer: Shrimp cocktail Why: The zinc-dense shrimp increase sperm levels and make orgasms more powerful, according to a study in Fertility and Sterility. They also contain a stress-reducing amino acid and the feel-good hormone serotonin. Entrée: Filet mignon au poivre (6 oz) (Garlic, ginger, mustard, pepper rub, porcini mushrooms) Why: High-protein foods boost production of dopamine and norepinephrine, hormones that increase alertness and assertiveness. Black pepper aids digestion, according to an Indian Journal of Medical Research study -- helpful for any energetic activities after dinner. Side: Baked sweet potato Why: It's high in potassium, which helps reduce stress--a great way to curb performance anxiety later that night. Top the potato with a dollop of sour cream, another source of libido-friendly protein. Side: Spinach salad (Spinach, Arugula, Pine nuts, Basil Vinaigrette, Parmesan cheese, carrots ) Why: Spinach is a potent source of magnesium, which helps dilate blood vessels, ensuring the smooth bloodflow that's crucial for strong erections, according to Japanese researchers. Dessert: Fresh raspberries drizzled with melted dark chocolate Why: British scientists have discovered that women release four times more endorphins after eating chocolate than they do after making out. The caffeine in chocolate also increases your alertness for what's to come after dessert. Try using Dark Chocolate on the raspberries, and pair them with a glass of port. You'll get a double dose of polyphenols -- antioxidants that increase your HDL (good) cholesterol.
