Planning for events can be stressful, especially when ordering merchandise for the event. Here are some tips to make it more efficient and successful.
Quality over Quantity
Choosing quality over quantity shows your target audience the understanding of what matters more than volume.
Instead of overordering and buying small merchandise to give out, having merch that people need will help out with overall purchases. Consider having attendees order online if merch runs out during the event and have them opt-in to receiving emails for new merchandise.

Do Giveaways and Competitions
To get more people to participate with your company start giveaways or competitions. Even do it online while the event is going on! Use Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok to help promote the event!
