Event management is, above all, a coordination of various relationships. Whether you’re managing event details and expectations with clients or caterers and other event service providers, it’s up to you to ensure that everything runs smoothly, from planning to registration to check-in to follow-up.
A good customer relationship management (CRM) platform can help your event planning company facilitate every step of the event management process. Nutshell CRM provides the ideal simple-to-use solution that your event management team will love.
Whether managing virtual or physical events, event managers need to nurture leads and attendees from before the event to after and often rely on various event software tools to handle all the tasks they need to do. These tasks can vary from lead generation to attracting clients, keeping track of event attendance, and keeping things running smoothly between different parties involved in the event.
On top of that, it’s good business practice for event management companies to follow up with attendees after the event to encourage repeat business and referrals.
A CRM is a single platform that will help you accomplish your business goals and daily tasks by:
A CRM can be a lifesaver for event planners who struggle to keep their heads above water to balance different aspects of their business.
There are plenty of CRM options available for event planning businesses, and you need to know what your goals are so you can choose the right one.
Here are some crucial features event planners should consider when choosing a CRM.
As an event manager, you need to keep all your ducks in a row to ensure a smooth event from start to finish. You should also ensure that your event leads to more leads and, ultimately, an increase in sales. As such, having a means to track contact details gained through event networking is an absolute must.
You need a centralized source of truth, including the contact details of current clients, leads, and business partners, that allows you to update records as contact information changes and clients change their preferences.
It’s no secret that event planning involves a lot of hands-on work on the event day and the days leading up to it.
This hands-on labor is often supported by tedious but necessary tasks, including email campaigning, following up with prospective clients, and keeping contact with past clients.
With CRM automation, you can put these tasks on autopilot while your team focuses on what they do best: delivering exceptional service on event days.
You need to stay at the top of your prospects’ minds as they weigh their event-planning options. Timely email marketing is essential to closing leads that are on the fence.
A CRM built for sales and marketing can help you succeed with email outreach and boost your event invitation email capabilities.
Take advantage of all the data you gather in your CRM to get insightful reports on your event and sales performance.

No passado, utilizei o Act, o Goldmine e o Salesforce e descobri que o Nutshell era o mais fácil de utilizar e de configurar campos personalizados. Recomendo o Nutshell a outras pessoas que estejam interessadas num CRM fácil de aprender e de navegar.

Deixámos a Hubspot por Nutshell porque a Hubspot era demasiado complexa. Nutshell faz software para humanos.

Quando estávamos a avaliar CRMs, o único fator decisivo entre Nutshell e Salesforce resumia-se ao tempo de rotação e ao preço. Nutshell ganha em ambos os casos (por uma margem enorme). O Salesforce custava 10 vezes mais por mês para o que queríamos.
