  • Checkmark Manual data entry across multiple systems created errors and wasted time
  • Checkmark No unified view of attendee information prevented holistic insights
  • Checkmark Limited ability to measure and prove event ROI to leadership
  • Checkmark Difficulty scaling their event program due to inefficient processes

The Business Case That Won Over Leadership

The Business Case That Won Over Leadership

Sarah's boss needed concrete numbers. She came prepared with a meticulously researched presentation that went beyond mere promises, diving deep into quantifiable metrics that would resonate with the company's leadership.

The business case began with a stark assessment of their current situation. Her team was spending an average of 37 hours per event on manual data entry, spreadsheet management, and system coordination.

Each event was a logistical nightmare, with data scattered across multiple platforms, leading to frequent errors and missed opportunities.

The financial projection was compelling: full return on investment within just 8 months, with continued benefits and cost savings in subsequent years.

Sarah concluded her presentation with a bold yet data-backed statement that by implementing run.events, the company is not just changing a software tool but transforming how the company approach event management, turning it from an administrative burden into a strategic business driver.

  • Checkmark Time Savings: Studies show teams save approximately 26 hours per event after moving from spreadsheets to an integrated platform
  • Checkmark Cost Efficiency: Automation of event management tasks can reduce personnel costs by 50-85% depending on event size
  • Checkmark Fast ROI: Event platforms yield positive ROI within the first year, with studies showing up to +60% ROI when considering labor savings
  • Checkmark Scalability: Teams report managing twice as many events with the same headcount after implementing comprehensive platforms
