Customer Relationship Management (CRM), three words that have taken the event management industry by storm. The shift toward hybrid and virtual conferences in only a few years has been a fascinating development to watch. Despite CRM systems existing in various forms, they’ve always been fairly misunderstood as far as event management is concerned.
Organising an academic program is often a juggling act. There are abstract submissions to manage, reviewers to solicit, participants to register, and schedules to keep. When you consider managing payments, possible hybrid formats, and the need for real-time communications, even the most seasoned organizer can feel overwhelmed. This is when an Event CRM proves useful.Â
Charity donations are made in large numbers every year. For the US alone, the amount of donations is more than $298 billion. This huge number doesn’t come from one place. There are several donors or supporters who donate different amounts as a part of their philanthropic efforts. As a nonprofit organization that runs on these donations, it is critical to be able to get the most charity amount for your firm through your fundraising efforts. However, managing campaigns for funds and hosting events for donors can be extremely hectic, with more tasks than you can handle. In this case, an event CRM for nonprofits can prove to be highly useful.

At times, attendees register twice using different email addresses for various reasons. For example, sometimes they forgot the password and instead of requesting a new password, they would simply create a new account. Or, if a subordinate has created an account for a user, and has not notified about the same, the user would unknowingly register again to create an account. There’re many other scenarios where duplicate accounts are created with each account holding some important information about the user. So, normally, the organizer would manually copy each piece of information from one account to another and then discard one of the accounts. This, however, results in lost time. Lots of lost time.
