Plan a high-impact conference circuit
Keep momentum going between events. Mix global flagships with niche meetups and leave time to experience the destinations you fly into.
- Design your conference route
- Layer events by geography so you can minimize long-haul flights and spend more time in-destination.
- Schedule networking blocks
- Block mornings for learning sessions and reserve evenings for hosted buyer meetups or community dinners.
- Capture insights on the go
- Use a shared note doc or voice memos to document takeaways so teammates can implement ideas quickly.
Conference travel checklist
- ✓Confirm appointment schedules, hosted buyer invites, and booth logistics at least 30 days out.
- ✓Align your marketing assets—media kits, QR codes, and demo videos—so every connection receives a follow-up.
- ✓Build in a day before and after the event for site visits or content capture around the host city.
- ✓Debrief with your team in real time—share learnings, track leads, and assign next steps while the ideas are fresh.
