09. Leveraging Your Vendor Network to Design Great Events

Beyond the BEO

Events help our attendees build meaningful relationships to meet their goals, but how do planners and vendors use relationships to create great events? In this episode, I chat with Evan Babins, an experienced events professional who is passionate about developing a strong network of vendors. We chat about the benefits of using your venue’s preferred vendors, how a DMC can help you execute on an event, how associations can help you if you’re planning an event in a new city, and more.

Looking for your CMP credit? Take this short quiz to receive your certificate. You can submit the certificate to the EIC as proof of participation.
