Going to a large event or conference can feel daunting. With thousands of people in one place and limited time to connect, it helps to have a clear plan. Here are some practical tips to get the most out of PI LIVE experience:
Ā
šSet Clear Objectives
Ā
Decide what success looks like for you before arriving. Are you aiming to:
Ā
- Network with clients or partners?
- Discover new tech and innovations?
- Hear from industry leaders?
Ā
Choose 2ā3 specific goals (e.g. meet three publishers, explore new influencer tools, reconnect with a past partner).
Ā
š Do Your Research
Use our event app to browse attendees, sponsors, and speakers in advance. You can even book meetings and build your schedule ahead of time.
Identify who you want to connect with, learn what they do, and think about the value you can bring to the conversation.
Ā
šPrepare Your Pitch
Be ready to introduce yourself clearly and confidently:
- What do you offer (product, service, or insight)?
- Why should someone talk to you?
Have a few versions ready, from a 30-second intro to a two-minute overview, and tailor them as needed. Bring business cards or digital options like a QR code to make follow-ups easy.
Ā
šPlan Your Content IntakeĀ
Check out the sessions and speakers ahead of time. Highlight the must-attends, the ones that spark your interest, and those aligned with your goals.
Donāt forget to leave some buffer time for informal conversations, exploring exhibitor booths, and moving between sessions too!
Ā
āļøTools & LogisticsĀ
Write down a few simple reminders to help you stay organised on the day, such as:
- Bring a notebook or use a note-taking app.
- Scan attendee badges to make following up easy.
- Keep devices charged and carry a power bank.
- Dress smart-casual, so you feel both professional and relaxed
