Episode 123: What are the Main Industry Trends with Will Curran Today we are happy to speak with Will Curran, the Chief Event Einstein of Endless Events! Will has been in our industry for many years and has an interesting perspective to share! In this episode, he talks about his journey, shares his insights, and discusses the trends we need to concentrate on.   We hope you enjoy listening to our fascinating conversation with Will Curran today!  Bio: As the founder of Endless Events, Will Curran has been named one of the most influential people in the meeting & events industry, one of the 40 under 40 event industry leaders, 35 entrepreneurs under the age of 35, and the highest customer satisfaction of any event company in the industry. Will has been producing in-person, virtual, and hybrid events since high school when he started his first company, and he has now worked in the management of large event clients such as Emerald City Comicon, Anheuser-Busch, Warner Brothers, Morton Salt & Uber. His team's mission is to simplify the event planning process by creating the equation for an event's perfect solution. From event management to business development to the latest technologies, Will Curran has a diverse background in growing events and companies to the next level. Will's backstory Will loved electronic music in high school, so he started a radio station and a DJ company. The DJ company exploded when he went to college. Will wanted to do larger-scale productions like high school dances and college events, so he learned about production and started hiring production companies. He transformed his DJ company into a production company and began to do big corporate events and productions. He also started using event technology, publishing tons of content about events and event technology and did a few podcasts along the way. The pandemic pushed them to help with all the aspects of events because technology became central to everything, so they transitioned and became a full-scale event management company. Learning from people's business stories Will loves hearing about how business owners came up with innovative ideas for their businesses, and he is constantly getting new ideas from different places. Innovation Will thinks he may be more conservative than some other innovative individuals, but he believes that he is more innovative than most people in many ways.  The pandemic Will was having his busiest year ever in March of 2020. Fortunately, his company had begun working remotely seven years before that, so none of his clients canceled when the pandemic hit. Some of them were even looking at adding more services, so Will felt that the pandemic was good for him. Music festival  Will had plans to go to a music festival in Belgium in Mid-March, but it got canceled a day before it was due to take place, even though millions of dollars had been spent on producing it.  An opportunity Will realized that the pandemic was going to devastate the United States. Everyone was looking for event tech, so he decided to use the situation as an opportunity and started contacting people to assist him with helping people produce their events virtually. As a result, his business blew up so fast in 2020 that it was almost uncontrolled in some ways! Although Will found it somewhat overwhelming, the entrepreneur in him resolved to go with it and help as many people as possible.  Thought leadership and flexibility Fortunately, their willingness to be flexible, and the thought leadership they gained from the content marketing they had been doing, really paid off in 2020!   Things to consider With the recession, economic downturn, and all the changes we are facing right now, Will is thinking of ways to do things differently from other businesses, reduce the fixed costs of his business, and become more variable. He is also considering the conversations he will need to have with his clients in the future, rising costs, and how to get his business to move faster.  Equipment Will did not like maintaining equipment, so he sold all his equipment and started renting whatever he needs. A unique business model Renting the equipment made Will feel liberated, and he learned that you can have a different model and still work very well! Even though there are still some challenges, he has managed to create a unique business model. Now they focus more on the people, the experience, and the design of events. The future   Will was excited when the pandemic started because people were going to work remotely. He knew his business would excel because they had been doing things remotely for years, so they had an advantage. They used to be one of the larger remote companies in the events industry, so many people wanted to work for them. Now it has become much harder to find the right people. Over the next two years, Will hopes that most people will revert to working in offices, and then he will employ those who prefer working remotely.   The next cultural trends People are moving toward feeling more natural with international hires and having their businesses become more global than before. We will see more people moving from places like San Francisco to bigger and cheaper metropolitan areas- even rural areas like Kansas and Montana. Will believes America needs more infrastructure, like faster and better internet, and we are moving towards having more digital nomads when flights become more affordable. Another trend he foresees is people demanding better workspaces and refusing to work for toxic bosses. It is also likely that by 2027, most people working in America will be freelancers, and new laws may come out to protect freelancers and contractors.  How the culture of our industry has changed The meetings and events industry used to be run by older people. When the pandemic broke out, many of those people were averse to the idea of virtual events. So they left the industry and were replaced by a generation of people who feel comfortable with technology and appreciate its value. Many of those people have subsequently risen within the ranks of their organizations.  Understanding company culture It is vital for people working for Endless Events to feel comfortable with technology and using different software. They also need to understand the company culture and try to stand out within it.    Connect with Eric On LinkedIn On Facebook On Instagram On Website Connect with Will Curran Endless Events Event Profs Community Reddit Books mentioned: Epic Content Marketing: How to Tell a Different Story, Break Through the Clutter, and Win More Customers by Marketing Less by Joe Pulizzi

Jim Demonakos, founder of Seattle’s annual Emerald City Comicon, met Kevin Konrad Hanna, an artist and film director, at the annual event. Two lifelong comic book fans, the duo tried a handful of projects together until something hit, a documentary about Hellboy creator Mike Mignola. In ‘Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters,’ Jim and Kevin uncover the story behind Mignola, as told from icons like Neil Gaiman, Doug Jones, Victor LaValle, Adam Savage, Patton Oswalt, and Guillermo del Toro, among others. In this interview, the directors talk rock star comic book creators, thinking of yourself as a storyteller not a filmmaker, opening the door for subject conversations, the entrepreneur mindset, and how their Kickstarter campaign raised over $500,000 from a $58,000 goal.

“Innovation is the ability to see change as an opportunity - not a threat” - Steve Jobs  As one of the top names in innovation, Steve Jobs pushed the boundaries of “how it’s always been done” and created a new wave of technology that changed how the world worked.  One of the most fascinating things about the Apple founder is that his most revolutionary ideas were actually a new take, on something old. He made the clunky computer accessible to the average home-owner, and he made a phone with no buttons.  Sometimes, the small tweaks are what lead to the biggest breakthroughs. The virtual craze in 2020 due to the coronavirus is nothing new. You are probably an old pro, but just don’t realize it. If you have streamed a live video on social media, built a sales funnel, created a website, or hosted a webinar, you have created a virtual event.  We believe that now is the time to experiment, have fun, and innovate with your virtual events. Our guest today, on Inside The Greenroom shares the same sentiment.  Join Blair Nichols and founder of Endless Events, Will Curran as they talk about how you can take your virtual events to a new level. Meeting planners, learn how you can create a better, more engaging experience for attendees with creative networking,  breakout rooms, and how to create a better ROI for virtual sponsors. Speakers, you will learn what Will and his team look for when booking virtual stages, and how preparing your tech and space ahead of time can help you show up more powerfully. These are just a couple of things we cover in today’s episode of Inside the Greenroom!   Here’s More Of What We Cover: How Will grew to be one of the biggest event production companies The strategy behind a virtual exhibit hall How digital marketing is connected to virtual events Upgrade your sponsor’s investment How to provide a better experience for everyone How to bring the entertainment element to your virtual event Why we are approaching webinar fatigue Personalizing your attendee’s experience Create more engagement by crowdsourcing The importance of showing your personality as a speaker And much more!   LINKS:   Connect with Will: Facebook: www.facebook.com/thewillcurran Twitter: twitter.com/ItsWillCurran Instagram: instagram.com/itswillcurran  Connect with Endless Events: Instagram: instagram.com/helloendless  Twitter: www.twitter.com/helloendless  LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/helloendless Website: www.helloendless.com   Connect with Blair: blair@advanceyourreach.com    Connect with us: Facebook: ​​www.facebook.com/advanceyourreach Website:​​www.insidethegreenroompodcast.com,  advanceyourreach.com Email​: ​info@insidethegreenroompodcast.com   Influential Speakers in Will’s life:  Gary Vee  Brian Fanzo Tim Ferriss   Episode Minute By Minute: 0:02 What to expect today 2:30 Get to know Will 4:40 How Will started in the event industry 7:46 Virtual events aren’t new 8:47 How Will got his community on board with virtual events 13:21 How to make virtual sponsorships a good investment  18:38 What is your “why” 21:48 Virtual swag bags 25:04 How to bring entertainment into a virtual event  33:44 Getting the best speakers possible for your event 38:14 Why Will hates virtual backgrounds  40:00 The speakers who impacted Will the most 44:34 Wills favorite memory inside a greenroom More About Will: Founder & Chief Event Einstein and Endless Events As the founder of Endless Events, Will Curran has been named one of the most influential people in the meeting & events industry, one of the 40 under 40 event industry leaders, 35 entrepreneurs under the age of 35, and Inc Magazine’s Coolest College Start-up all before graduating college.

Chris's cartoon, Reprographics, ran from about 2004 to 2013. Ryan North of Dinosaur Comics is possibly the nicest guy in the world, based on his reputation. David Lynch did Angriest Dog in the World for quite a while. xkcd by Randall Munroe turned not being able to draw into an asset. Chris worked early on with David Malki, interviewed on New Disruptors in September 2013. Ceaco sells mass-produced versions of Chris's invention.

I and Dylan listed off an oodle of conferences, which include Gallifrey One, Rose City Comic Con, Emerald City Comicon, PAX, the XOXO conference, MaxFunCon, and JoCo Cruise Crazy.
