Finalize class locations We announce building locations, but not specific rooms until we know the final count. This causes less confusion than announcing room locations in the brochure, Send out confirmation letters Do not underestimate the importance of a written confirmation letter. People do not remember what they have registered for and want something in writing. We send street and building maps along with Convention and Visitor Bureau Brochures to out of town participants. Send instructors final information Again, do not underestimate.
People often forget what they've committed to.
Provide detailed specifics regarding the class and remind them of your expectations and their responsibilities. Follow-up phone calls are helpful. I contact the education reporters of local newspapers. We also have information put on school marquees. Order food, beverages We have local caterers and beverage services deliver food and pick up serving items at the end of the day.
