“We need swag to get people to attend.”
+ creating event budgets - how to get sponsorship
Asking some questions
Why do we gather?
To learn new skills. To make new friendships. To win
a competition. To get a job.
Identify the reason that your audience are attending “Shared Struggle”
Use this to make sure your event format is suitable
and what success looks like.
Do you NEED money? A venue. People. A reason.
Creating a budget
Step 1 Create a detailed and itemised list of everything
you need to spend money on.
Step 2 Tag critical items as ‘needs’, ’wants’ or ‘nice
to haves’.
Step 3 Create any variable budgets you need - attendance
numbers are key to this step.
Step 4 Get real-world quotes and amend your budget accordingly.
Step 5 Make sure your budget is visible to your

Step 6 Note when items need to be paid for.
Use this to prioritise.
Step 7 Update, update, update.
