In-person events are consistently regarded as one of the most effective channels among B2B marketers. Not only do they build brand awareness and generate massive demand, they also accelerate the sales process and empower customer advocacy.
In order for B2B marketers to reap the benefits of events, they need to adapt a new mindset that incorporates engagement into their overall event strategy. With this approach, they'll be able to continue to foster the sense of community that is built at events and meet their marketing goals.
In this presentation, Justin Gonzalez, Senior Marketing Manager at DoubleDutch, provides expert insight on how engagement is a key piece to increasing your ROI at B2B marketing events.

People still want that in-person connection.
Event programs offer the face-to-face
engagement that helps move your leads down
the funnel at a higher conversion rate than most
other marketing channels.
