FLEX Third Friday May: Event - Driven Growth

Events are no longer just “extra” marketing activities for businesses. For many businesses, events have become one of the most effective ways to build community, create additional revenue streams, generate leads, deepen relationships, increase visibility, and create memorable client experiences.

At this FLEX meeting, we’ll be exploring events from multiple angles through a guided panel discussion featuring local business owners, event professionals, and venue leaders.

We’ll discuss:
* How businesses are using events to grow
* Events as lead generators and revenue streams
* Workshops, retreats, networking events, and client experiences
* What actually goes into planning and executing successful events
* How different types of venues create different opportunities
* Ways to start small without feeling overwhelmed
* Common mistakes businesses make with events
* Local resources available to support events in Colorado Springs
Our panelists include:
* Business owners who use events as a core part of their business
* Business owners who use events to complement and grow their existing business
* An event planner
* Venue owners and venue managers
* A representative from Visit Colorado Springs

Whether you already host events or are simply curious how events could support your business, this conversation will give you practical ideas, real-world insight, and examples of how events can be used intentionally and strategically.

Please note: FLEX meetings are women-only gatherings to create a supportive and open environment.

We also host regular co-ed networking events within our broader community.
