Hi, we actually have quite a few planners doing festivals, galas and the like. Please check out our free 2 week trial and let me know if it would work for you. I'd be happy to give you a discount for planning only a few events + your feedback. My email is alex@eventgeek.com.

Thanks Alex, however I rarely plan events -- as the DJ, I would be pitching this to the planner. I do private events and I'm not sure how to pitch EventGeek in that scenario -- there's not typically analytics for weddings or private receptions, where the focus is more on coordination and execution of the event, rather than the event serving to market a product or service.

I understand I'm probably asking for a different product, but I was curious.

Our website is admittedly focused on marketers, but the product works great for event planners too. We have a scheduling feature which breaks down where each participant should be, min-by-min. I'd say share this screenshot first (http://imgur.com/of3Sn49) and then give the free trial a try. The benefits should be obvious in the first few mins.

Hi Alex, this is a great product my company, we work with hundreds of event planners and this could be an interesting sell.

If you like to explore more, drop me an email.

FYI, We help clients increase audience engagement through live Q&As, polls and surveys at their live events.

Very cool, Lyon. Sending you an email now.
