I'm a part of an org on campus that hosts events for students and have been looking for a way to improve out management. Perfect timing as always Jeff!
Seriously we all need some planning and structure for different events in life and at work. This video is so underrated! Keep up the good work Jeff, I see that you've invested a lot in this course by filling in all the details in this template :D
So you're an angel who parties like a gangster at high end clubs but you're a peasant. You need Event Management just to keep up with your many roles... To be serious, though, I loved the video. Thanks Jeff!
Heeey, awesome video again! Said that several times by now. I really appreciate that you put together a course and share resources. I'll definitely free up time to take it.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! The template is beautiful and has a lot of great formatting and formulas I didn't even know you could use like the "Days until event" - genius!
Heyy Jeff, this video was absolutely nice!! The way of keeping a track of things has been exceptional from your end. I have a slight problem here. Since I m a 3rd year bachelor's student learning computer science, we aren't familiarised with this event management concepts nor we have any prior experience. Hence it looks totally new to us. It would have been better if you could explain a bit more deep to the freshers who are learning or those people who have taken a turn towards Event Management. Frankly speaking, these things really went like bouncers on the top of my head. I hope you understand!! Thanks and have a good day!!! Cheers!!!
Well, I have a diploma in event management, and I was aspiring to something systematic. Perhaps I could learn from someone who would not have long experience in this field, like you.
@@JeffSu Oh! I thought you had a degree too! This might surprise me😅... Yes, I have a diploma in event management and I took it from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia... but I want to learn more about it.
Thanks so much for the feedback! That's something I've been thinking about. I think if I do, it'll still be around very "practical" concepts involving specific workflows instead of concepts :)
hi jeff! can i ask if you ever considered using notion for event planning? :0 and if you did, if you could share a template for that? context: my main concern right now is figuring out the timeline for event preparations, and i found that using notion really helped me visualize work timelines and deliverables as well as create filter views for separate departments to look at. however, after watching this video, i realized that there's a lot more information that i should be making available to my team & wondered if i could replicate what you did on googlesheets to notion just as effectively. thanks for making such great videos & tutorials! 🎉
Hi, just recently discovered your channel and found it very useful. Thanks for all the work and tips. Can you make more videos on constructing an outstanding resume / CV would be very helpful. Any tips would be a blessing.
@@JeffSu Yes, I have found it very helpful but i don’t know how to showcase the work I have done over the years without using the cliche terms and language. Using such vocabulary has become unavoidable and I feel that would not make my CV stand out. Any inputs are welcome.
One last request- could you also tell us how are you so energetic in all your videos. How do you stay motivated to be productive. Love the vibes and the energy you give out. Thank you.
It’s interesting to know how broad marketing can be :o I used to be under the impression that marketing=sales (my first principles of marketing class quickly dispelled that thought though) but now I’m finding out how prevalent event planning can be in some marketing roles, pretty cool stuff :3 Thanks for the video!
Sales and marketing are VERY different 😂, glad to hear that this video also cleared some of that confusion up! And within marketing there are many many differences as well, for example the responsibilities of a growth marketer are very different than those of a product marketer!
This is the first time I heard about growth marketers :o I did a quick Google search and by the looks of it, they’re almost the opposite of a product marketer 👀 I’m just remembering how you mentioned in a previous video that you liked seeing the impact you’re making 😆 considering how growth marketing has a longer time horizon and thus won’t give results as quickly, I can see why you didn’t go that route haha
This is sooo helpful, clear, detailed, pertinent info.. I really like how professional you are. Is it possible to connect at linkedin? I'm working for EDA company, Cadence. Bertrand G.
Great video. You got me to watch your entire lesson on skillshare. It should be very helpful as we move forward with a small conference of 40-50 people. I wonder if you have any suggestions for logistical in-person event stuff like badges, arrival and hotel booking, and stuff like that. We are also looking for a very simple conference app solution that can have a brochure, schedule, speaker bios, local info, and in-app messaging. Any suggestions would be splashing! Thanks again for your content. I would keep my skill share account if there were more deep dives from you on it. peace.
Wow that's great to hear Daniel, hope it was helpful! To be very honest when it comes to event execution, I highly recommend hiring an event agency (they're usually very affordable, even for SMBs) since they already have the tools and processes in place for running the entire event from beginning to end. Conference app would be a bit more complicated (and expensive) so I honestly recommend creating the agenda online (using Google Docs or Notion)
I know this video was 2 years ago but hopefully you will respond to my comment. By any chance, do you have a video where you elaborate more every sheets of the google sheets? Also, can we edit the survey form based on our event and how.
This video is really helpful, thank you! I tried to download the link to the event template but it doesn't seem to work. Are you able to share it with me please?
Great video, Jeff! Do you have a version of this file in Excel, or do you only work out of Google Sheets? It’s an incredible resource either way, just curious. Thanks!
Hi! 2 years later, are you still using google sheets? have you explored other project management softwares like asana and salesforce? how do you think they compare to your structure?
@jeffsu I am looking for a short intro video on someone's personal journey on how they became professional event planning for a free resource for high school students-- would you do one? I hope you consider!

That's a great point, thanks for the feedback! I might do like a super beginner tutorial down the line if people are interested in that 😁
Tim Cook will be queuing up for you to plan his next birthday party 🎁😂 love the structure of the spreadsheet Jeff 👌
I'm pretty expensive, not sure if Tim can afford me tbh
Just discovered your channel, auto subscribe, love your personality and quality of your content. Keep it up 👌
Glad to have you here Miguel! Huge welcome 😁😁
Love your content!
Thank you Noah!!!
Big help! thanks for the template
Have you checked out my job search playlist?
Well, I have a diploma in event management, and I was aspiring to something systematic. Perhaps I could learn from someone who would not have long experience in this field, like you.
Wow you have a diploma in this? I feel like I can learn from you! 😂
@@JeffSu Oh! I thought you had a degree too! This might surprise me😅... Yes, I have a diploma in event management and I took it from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia... but I want to learn more about it.

Jeff
I joined your course in Skillshare and i want to know more on event management
Hope you can enlighten me further
Eric
Sure Eric - what questions do you have?
I love this! Thank you! So informative
You're very welcome! 😁
Hi Jeff, nice to see you are on Skillshare. Do you think you'll be making productivity classes on there as well? That'd be lovely!
Thanks so much for the feedback! That's something I've been thinking about. I think if I do, it'll still be around very "practical" concepts involving specific workflows instead of concepts :)
@@JeffSu That's precisely what I love about your videos. Very practical and actionable! Such a unique proposition from most of the other creators.

thanks for making such great videos & tutorials! 🎉
I do use Notion for small-scale planning sometimes but honestly Google Sheets is easier for project management
@@JeffSu very interesting! i hope to try out both and i'll see what's effective for my team :D thank you for your input!
Another great video. And yes, you are an Angel!
Haha thank you so much Luís Gil 😁😁
@@JeffSu No, thank you. You can motivate me to do my degree. Miss videos with Notion btw 😅
Hi, just recently discovered your channel and found it very useful. Thanks for all the work and tips.

Hi Darshan! Thanks so much for the kind words. Have you checked out my resume and cover letter videos already? :)
@@JeffSu Yes, I have found it very helpful but i don’t know how to showcase the work I have done over the years without using the cliche terms and language. Using such vocabulary has become unavoidable and I feel that would not make my CV stand out. Any inputs are welcome.

@@drdarshanbm Stick with actual results and contributions and you'll naturally avoid the cliches and buzzwords :)

Pretty DOPE my G.. You rock it!!
Thank you my friend 😁

Sure, hit me up
Not only did I learn about events but also about selling
Hahaha that's what I love to hear!
Thanks for the great video Jeff!
You're welcome 😁
Great content, Jeff!
What program interface would you recommend for customer registration for let’s say a training program event?
Depends on budget, amount of people, format etc.
Can't beat Google Forms + Google Sheets if you're looking for a free option
Thanks for the tips 😊
You're welcome my friend!
Thank you
You're very welcome!
Thanks, Angel 😊😊
You're very welcome 😁😁
I’m that person planning my company local EOY unofficial party for this year 😂😂 coming here to steal some process/structure ideas
LOL good luck!
this was really well done - thanks for making such a cool and well detailed video!
You're very welcome Cat! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁
Yes i do believe. you're an angel.
Hahaha me too 😉
you are the best!!! I love it thank you!!

@@JeffSu Thanks. Have you ever considered remaking this template in Notion?
@@dnewman20 Yup, but it would only be small-scale events. Notion functionality isn't ready for large-scale events just yet I think
I know this video was 2 years ago but hopefully you will respond to my comment. By any chance, do you have a video where you elaborate more every sheets of the google sheets? Also, can we edit the survey form based on our event and how.
Wow thanks! ♥️
You're welcome! 😁
This is great!! Great ideas.
Thank you!!
This video is really helpful, thank you! I tried to download the link to the event template but it doesn't seem to work. Are you able to share it with me please?
Which link are you using
Wow soooo useful !!!
Glad you think so Winnie!!
Hey Jeff, did you do a video oo how to do all this?
Link in the description :)
Great video, Jeff!
Do you have a version of this file in Excel, or do you only work out of Google Sheets? It’s an incredible resource either way, just curious. Thanks!
I primarily use Google Sheets!
Hey I am looking for a Gantt Chart Planning Info. Have you created any content about that , can you share some insight!! Could a new video idea 💡
Thanks for the idea Vinay! I'll note it down :)
Hi! 2 years later, are you still using google sheets? have you explored other project management softwares like asana and salesforce? how do you think they compare to your structure?
I still use Google Sheets since I need something free and simple
Hey jwff can u make a video on Microsoft edge pla
It's in the works :)
@@JeffSu thanks
@jeffsu I am looking for a short intro video on someone's personal journey on how they became professional event planning for a free resource for high school students-- would you do one? I hope you consider!

Or get a year free with most library memberships...
Wait how
