How event planners in Trinidad and Tobago are making an impact online
Event Planning is a key component of Trinidad and Tobago’s entertainment culture. From carnival events and weddings to corporate events and general parties, event planners play an important role in the efficient running of all occasions on the islands.
They have also been one of the most impacted industries by Covid-19. As restrictions in the country begin to ease more events are happening and event planners are also showcasing their services with vigour on social media.
This has had us thinking about what the key components are to effectively sell event planner services online.
Here are three brands that are selling their services effectively on social media :
J Signature Weddings specifically focuses on weddings but their online content is a good example of having an effective content mix. Here are the key factors that differentiate them from their competitors:
- Their Instagram bio has all the key information a user requires, including the number to contact them and the owner's certifications.
- The page has a great balance of photography and video content.
- The content is extremely high quality which solidifies the brand’s identity of luxury and elegance.
- The page’s highlights and posts also give behind the scenes of the creation of their events and decor. In 2021, they did a short video series that showed the owner creating her well known and loved floral arrangements which received high engagement and views.
J Signature’s page is an example of how to bring the personality of the brand through social media content. Within minutes of being on their Instagram page, viewers have a clear idea of their style and quality. Their addition of entertaining content keeps their followers engaged.
