EVENT MANAGEMENT:

Event planning is the process of planning a festival, ceremony, competition, party, concert, or convention. Event planning can include budgeting, establishing dates and alternate dates, selecting and reserving the event site, acquiring permits (alcohol permits, insurance licenses, etc), coordinating transportation and parking, developing a theme or motif for the event, arranging for speakers and alternate speakers, coordinating location support (such as electricity and other utilities), and arranging decor, event support and security, catering, emergency plans, aid stations, and cleanup. Event management is the application of project management to this process.

The industry now includes events of all sizes from the Olympics down to a breakfast meeting for ten business people. Many industries, charitable organisations, and interest groups will hold events of some size in order to market themselves, build business relationships, raise money or celebrate.

I would concentrate my budget around Google AdWords, SEO and Social Media Marketing. Additionally I'd write news stories and get them published in the events section of local print media including lifestyle magazines, tabloids and leading newspaper supplements.
