Hey hey, meeting pros—it’s Tiffany Andrews, your backstage pass to all things hospitality. This week’s Convention Center Podcast is hotter than a July load-in without AC. We’re diving into summer trends that’ll have you questioning what’s real, what’s next, and what the heck holograms have to do with badge pickup. But first, meet our studio guests —the dynamic duo, Jules and Aubrey —to play a round of Two Truths and a Lie: Hospitality Edition. And let's say—these trends are wild. Jules (a.k.a. Julie) is an Events Coordinator here at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center with a background in hospitality management and a Disney-trained flair for service magic. Aubrey, our Senior Events Coordinator, is a powerhouse planner with a degree in Communications, a minor in Spanish, and a gift for keeping every event running smoothly, much like a perfectly timed AV cue. Do you think a $70 million esports prize pool is outrageous? Spoiler: it’s real, and it might outshine your keynote budget. Beach volleyball is now co-ed, team-based, and city-themed—because apparently, even sports are getting a brand refresh. And then there’s a hologram who wants to check you in, scan your palm, and suggest a latte—mmm, futuristic much? We’ll tell you what’s true, what’s maybe too true, and how to stay ahead of the trends without losing your sanity (or your badge). Buckle up because this episode is part industry insight, part game show, and 100% worth your ears.…

In the latest episode of The Convention Center Podcast, our host delves into the pivotal role of audio-visual (AV) technology and targeted advertising in elevating event planning. The episode kicks off with a deep dive into the importance of integrating AV solutions from the onset of planning. Early prioritization of AV ensures a dynamic and engaging event and opens doors to cost-effective planning and lucrative sponsorship opportunities. A highlight from this segment is a case study from the 2019 Tech Expo, where integrating a sponsor's logo into an AR experience significantly boosted engagement and secured a long-term sponsorship deal. The conversation then shifts to strategizing marketing efforts across different generations - Boomers, Gen Xers, and Millennials emphasizing the necessity to tailor marketing strategies to meet the unique preferences of each group. The podcast outlines practical approaches to reach diverse audiences, from leveraging direct mail campaigns for Boomers to executing personalized email marketing for Gen Xers and engaging Millennials through social media and influencer partnerships.

Reggie Dyson is the General Manager at WMIR Rejoice radio 103.5fm, 95.5fm, and 1200am, also three times Stellar Award Nominee. The podcast opens with Dyson sharing profound moments regarding his recent outdoor event – Myrtle Beach Waves of Praise Gospel Fest, an outdoor music festival going into its 4th year. As our guest on the Convention Center Podcast, Dyson shares primary outdoor event logistics that include but are not limited to: Book artist/talent that will entertain all ages, both young and old. Typically, your core demographic is within a 100-mile or less radius. Partnerships are essential with radio, television, and out-of-home networks. Ask artist/talent to assist with cross promotions by using their social media platforms and radio interviews. Using social media vs printed flyers win every time. Consider if your outdoor concert should have a hybrid component. Be aware of the weather conditions in the city you are hosting your outdoor event. Meanwhile, develop relationships with the local meteorologists. Have a plan B if rain is forecasted a week out. Plan B requires a lot of preparation, non-stop phone calls, and numerous text messages. Outdoor events offer freedom for both attendees and vendors to space out and move around. Having produced numerous gospel events both outdoor and indoor, Dyson suggests that these “Must Dos” remain the same regardless of an event’s location. In ranking order, here’s his… Top Ten Secure the date Secure the venue Secure artists a year in advance Secure the items listed on the artist’s rider Determine the AV needs of each artist or group performing Develop an event budget Find sponsors to off-set artists, rider requirements, and AV needs Sell vendor spaces, meanwhile ensure food vendors offer a variety of meal options from vegan to soul food, an assortment of different beverages, and those selling arts & crafts Keep people at your event by providing everything a concert-goer would need Secure your talent for next year based on the climate of your recent event As Dyson shares the ups and downs of his career as a gospel promoter, he also offers advice to new concert producers. So, keep listening…the four items he provides advice on can make or break a successful event.

Michelle Stinson Ross is the CMO of Mindful Appy . The company works with organizations that are ready to embrace a cultural shift to create a Psychologically safe workplace. Mindful Appy analyzes the company’s data derived from KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and evaluates employees’ emotional engagement by using NEI (Net Emotional Index). As you listen…take notes, Stinson provides employees and employers with an easily implemented toolbox. This month’s podcast offers insights provided by Mindful Appy on Self-Care -I am not a Machine. I am a Human Being! The podcast immediately opens with Stinson answering how an employee can most effectively cope with deadline stress. One of the many answers she provides is, asking if there is flexibility to shift the deadline out further. Ahhh…well that seems easy enough. While inroads are being made for better health at the workplace, here are a few questions to ponder. Is management communicating the available options for self-care? Is leadership checking in on self-care balance in the workplace? What is the culture of your company? Is the leadership team assisting employees to do their jobs successfully? Are people looking busy or being productive? This is often a cultural issue most represented between Boomers & Gens/Millennials. Stinson stresses that ownership for mental wellness/self-care that leads to fatigue or burnout no longer rests solely on the shoulders of the employee. Why is the statement, “Check it at the door” meaningless? Because “it” will follow up into work regardless. To prevent “it from coming through the door”, Stinson provides our listeners with alternative methods of practicing mindfulness. Below are a few of the self-care steps we have shared. Stop and ask what emotions am I feeling Can I acknowledge the problem Then choose the best path to respond after a negative experience In addition, Stinson offers advice for those with high-performance jobs that suffer from anxiety and provides a deep dive regarding workplace burnout. So now, the workday is over and you are at home. Guess what is next? Close the stress cycle to decrease the adrenaline and cortisol in your system, Stinson suggests. Wait… hold up it is not that simple, how do I do that? Options to close the stress cycle do exist! Has anyone heard of a good laugh, a big hug from your child or family member, or even the affection from your pet? Stinson’s podcast conclusion on empathy is defiantly something not to miss!

Shannon Smith the Director of Operational Excellence at Varsity All Star shares what the key ingredients are in creating successful cheer and dance competitions before and during COVID-19. Knowing that cheering is shifting towards being a sanctioned sport makes listening to Smith’s podcast most beneficial. This month’s podcast offers insight into Varsity All Star’s pandemic success: Launching Varsity TV for virtual competitions How using the Band App for coaches, judges, and staff is essential in disseminating relevant information The importance of phone calls, video conferencing, emails, advance communication with coaches, and use of social media to connect with spectators The benefits of using a consistent scoring system, no matter the competition size or location Employ a detailed communication strategy on various topics that range from coach check-ins to spectator ticketing/viewing to safety protocols regarding crowd rotation and event timing Smith reflects on March 2020 and how events were on a hard pause. No longer having the ability to see the joy in competitors’ faces, pushed Varsity All Star to be innovative. So much so, the team quickly became well versed in hosting virtual competitions on Varsity TV and maintaining social engagement. Varsity TV required the following: Performances to be uploaded Virtual judging Scoring to be emailed Sharing performances to subscribers Viewed by many as an industry trendsetter, Varsity All Star’s primary goal remains to ensure the industry remains solid.

Chris Lindstrom the concessions manager at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center and a host of other city outdoor venues shares protocols and profits. In this podcast, Chris discusses: How to responsibly package concession foods Importance of sanitizing food preparation counters and all equipment Staff wearing masks and the frequency of changing gloves Having a designated person that only handles payment Fostering relationships with distributors and cost-saving upwards of 25% Reflecting, the pandemic did not only affect group bookings but how to serve F&B to guests. Lindstrom emphasizes that following the guidelines provided by the CDC was not difficult, because having worked in the hospitality industry for so many years he knows how to respond quickly to changes or requests. He takes pride in setting the bar at providing a variety of quality foods, having options event-specific (bodybuilding competition with protein bars), pre-ordered box lunches (youth groups with short lunch breaks), and using local distributors ( ABF -American Beekeeping Federation with featured items made with honey). Note… before COVID-19 having a range of 7,000 to 20,000 guests all needing food requires third-party partnerships. Therefore, when the concession stands and kiosks are not enough, it is not uncommon to see Subway or Chick-fil-A in Prefunction and food trucks or Kono Ice on the Events Plaza.
