Rome wasn't built in a day and great conferences aren’t either. Time, and lots of it, is an essential ingredient for building a strategic event that moves your organization (and, let's be real, your career) forward.

And yet, time is the resource us event managers have the least of. If we had more of it, we wouldn't have to work long nights and weekends.

To help you make the best use of the time you have, we've created a helpful Timeline for a Strategically Planned Conference guide. More than just a calendar or checklist, this detailed guide tells you what you need to have done when. We also offer tons of valuable tips on how you should approach conference planning work to maximize the impact of your event.

We even include a template for the work back schedule we use when planning events.

With this Timeline you'll have a guide for making the most of the time you have and planning that difference-making event. Download it via the button below.
