How the Right Technology Can Change Your Event Business for the Better

Event Technology
May 01, 2024

Technology is the present and the future and we either have to adapt and grow with it or we'll get left behind. There’s a special nostalgia in the traditional pen and paper but technology can revolutionize your business and set it on an accelerated track, one that could only be achieved with the use of the right platform that has your needs in mind. Aisle Planner has an advanced suite of tools that are made just for you, by wedding and event professionals just like you!


 

Event Tech

According to Think Splendid wedding tech is the fastest growing segment of the wedding industry. With that said, several wedding tech companies have popped up throughout the past couple of years and have failed to understand the “why” and the importance behind providing the wedding community with quality tools. Think Splendid highlights how these wedding tech companies lack awareness, education, and respect for the history of the industry and those that paved the way. So why is Aisle Planner any different? We’re from the industry and for the industry. Our team consists of former wedding and event professionals who are working toward the greatest all-in-one tech solution for our industry. We’re a part of this community and are passionate about helping our community grow and thrive.

Iron Foundations

When Aisle Planner was still in its first stages, we focused on ensuring that we had a Strong and Sturdy Foundation. So in turn we want to help you have an impenetrable foundation. That’s why we made tools that we know will be in line with the rigor of your work. That way you can breathe easier and have more time on your hands. Your business requires you to have a reliable foundation. Business essentials like marketing, budgeting, and workflow management are parts of your foundation that can now be managed through tech. Out of all the elements that may be out of your control, your business' technological process should be locked in.

Organization & Consolidation

Technology like Aisle Planner can aid you in taking your business to the next level. From creating your own customizable branded landing page to the powerful CRM capabilities, technology is here to make your life easier. Aisle Planner takes it one step further with project checklists, timelines, and design tools to bring all the details of your event together to streamline your processes, not only with your clients, but with your fellow events pros, too! With powerful tools linked seamlessly together in one stylish, intuitive, and easy-to-use online environment, you stay connected to your team, your clients, your partners, and every detail of every project and event.

Pro Tip: 

As expert event pros, taking notes and keeping track of every little detail is a big part of our everyday workflow. Meeting notes, cake tasting notes, ceremony details and packing lists are just some of the things we document throughout the event planning or project management process. Being able to locate, reference, and share these gems of information ultimately contribute to the finely tuned strings we pull to weave the most memorable day for our clients. By keeping your notes in Aisle Planner, you’ll always know where to find them, and your staff and clients can easily access them to stay updated and add their own notes as you plan.
