Conferences can effectively convey important messages and yield a return on investment when planned with clear objectives and audience insight. Amplify Me collaborates with clients to define their conference strategy, focusing on desired outcomes and tailoring content to audience needs. The planning process includes pre- and post-conference analysis, refining materials, and ensuring alignment with broader communication strategies.

1. A conference can be an incredibly powerful and effective method of reaching your audience.
So how can you ensure it hits the mark and provides a return on your investment?
Making the most of your Conference
The purpose of a conference should be to convey specific messages resulting in tangible outcomes.
While logistical arrangements – arranging keynote speakers, a suitable location and a solid social program are
priorities, determining the content and key messages of the conference can sometimes become secondary.
Making the most of a conference requires having a clear objective, an understanding of where it fits into the
business strategy and insight into the audience’s needs.
Good strategy ensures the significant inputs of time, effort and resources provide a proper return on investment.
Our Approach
At Amplify Me, we work closely with our clients to plan their conference strategy, review objectives and agree
metrics for success.
Once the objectives are clearly articulated, we identify the desired outcomes and audience ‘call to action’, whether
developing skills, instilling behavioural change, motivating, or building profile.
To ensure the messages resonate, we analyse the audience and identify the ‘what’s in it for me factor’ relevant to
their particular needs.
We review all presentations, activities and keynote speeches against these
objectives. For some clients, we write the presentations while for others we edit “We create conference
