Let’s get you started with optimizing your event biz. The first thing to do is Take Time to Reflect and Self-Assess by looking inward in order to outwardly show your strength and resilience.
We will share with you the importance of taking time to reflect, self-assess in order to optimize your business. We’ve done the same and we happily share our own self-assessment in this video.
To get you started, check out this worksheet, it’s an exercise inclusive of questions that will help you identify what’s currently working well in your business, and where you may be falling short.
Take a step back and think about these to yourself:
- What’s going well in my business?
- Where have I struggled?
- What have I been wanting to learn?
- What activities or offers give me the most in return?
- What activities or offers don’t seem to help my business?
These are just some of the questions you’ll be answering and all of the questions will help you get started optimizing your business and help you form your action plan.
Self assessing is part of a 7-day challenge Festively created just for you and each day we invited industry experts to chat live with us about each topic. We first spoke with Wendy Amara. See the full conversation on the Festively YouTube and be sure to join our Facebook group page.

Wendy shared so much wisdom and inspiration during our conversation. Wendy stressed the importance of keeping alive our dreams, desires, and goals when we’re going through challenging times. We should be able to tap into those dreams, allow ourselves to mourn the 2020 we hoped for, step out of chaos, and begin to get into solution mode.
We were in the middle of launching Festively, an online marketplace to find event essentials when COVID-19 impacted us all. Since then we’re seeing so many of our friends and colleagues in the event industry hurting. The 7-day challenge is our way of pivoting and bringing the industry some support. We know we will all get though this together. To see all 7 days of optimizing your event biz. check us out on YouTube.
