Picture
Planners are being challenged to work faster, harder, and more efficiently. The past few years have seen a cumulative number of tools created to help us accomplish more. I take great delight when I find a tool that helps my clients and me, so I thought I’d share some of my favorites to make your job easier.

Engagement
  • Quora: Ask and answer questions about an event. Listen to what people are asking about you. This tool is getting a lot of buzz right now, good and bad. Definitely worth checking out.
  • SurveyMonkey: Create surveys for free, then share and embed them easily.
  • Storify: Turn what people post on social media into compelling stories. You collect the best photos, video, tweets, and more to publish as simple, beautiful stories that can be embedded anywhere.
  • BuddyPress: Create your own social network for your event.
