weeks with a bank holiday near them and check for sporting or music events that could cause travel chaos on the day of your event.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Time: <\/strong><\/em>Guests are likely to be other business owners, or employees, so we\u2019ve found that holding events between 3pm \u2013 7pm midweek works well.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Venue:<\/strong><\/em> Consider holding the event at your workplace. Guests will get a better feel for your business, plus, it\u2019s free! If you don\u2019t have space, look for interesting spaces to hire like galleries or period style buildings. Or ask us! Many of our Nettl studios have meeting rooms and spaces to hire.<\/p>\n<h3>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-37lp9r8-4d2ba08c47f1896512a580f3dc7fb809\">\n.av_font_icon.av-37lp9r8-4d2ba08c47f1896512a580f3dc7fb809{\ncolor:#97c700;\nborder-color:#97c700;\n}\n.av_font_icon.av-37lp9r8-4d2ba08c47f1896512a580f3dc7fb809 .av-icon-char{\nfont-size:25px;\nline-height:25px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<span  class='av_font_icon av-37lp9r8-4d2ba08c47f1896512a580f3dc7fb809 avia_animate_when_visible av-icon-style- avia-icon-pos-left avia-icon-animate'><span class='av-icon-char' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\uf0c0' data-av_iconfont='fontawesomeregular' ><\/span><\/span> #2 The Guest List<\/h3>\n<p>Compile a guest list from your client database or buy targeted data. Aim to invite as many people as possible to ensure you end up with a decent number of guests. In our experience, 10% of those invited will register to attend, then 50% of those will turn up on the day.<\/p>\n<h3>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2q6eysk-df34ff37a8dfc30c1990483e9639853b\">\n.av_font_icon.av-2q6eysk-df34ff37a8dfc30c1990483e9639853b{\ncolor:#97c700;\nborder-color:#97c700;\n}\n.av_font_icon.av-2q6eysk-df34ff37a8dfc30c1990483e9639853b .av-icon-char{\nfont-size:25px;\nline-height:25px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<span  class='av_font_icon av-2q6eysk-df34ff37a8dfc30c1990483e9639853b avia_animate_when_visible av-icon-style- avia-icon-pos-left avia-icon-animate'><span class='av-icon-char' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\ue801' data-av_iconfont='fontawesome' ><\/span><\/span> #3 The Fun Factor<\/h3>\n<p>Having a fun factor is another incentive for people to attend.
