Planning your postponed parties in 2020
What about questions like…
- Should you rule out the event all together?
- What about the costs associated with down payments and booking fees? What if food was already purchased and supplies already purchased?
- Will the venues continue to operate after the crisis?
- Can they survive the crisis for the same booking rate?
Well first off we need to take the realization that sometimes things happen that are out of our control. And the most important thing is that our families, our guests, and ourselves are healthy and are fortunate enough to have the opportunity to reflect in a world that has been through this global crisis. After all it is a first world crisis and these are mere rescheduling. If you are dead there is no reason to reschedule an event.
Once all that is been done it’s time to start planning for life as we move forward. Perhaps there are a few lessons learned during this crisis I will help to plan an event in the future.
First it is important to get in touch with the establishment where you have booked your event. Are they planning on re-opening? When will that be? What is their long-term offers for the events that got canceled? Here are some first steps after your event is canceled…
- Reach out to your event planner in New Mexico today to find out more about the reactive practices of your venue
- Some venues offer reimbursements on deposits to help recoup the costs. Although it is recommended that if you have your event planned and booked, it is respectful and encouraging to keep those same arrangements so that way that venue can rely on that event as future earnings
- Once the time comes for reopening these events will be the back bone that will keep your favorite golf course or banquet hall from closing
When I comes to the food for these events that can be a trickier subject to navigate. In some cases of the event may have been canceled so close to the date, due to government shut downs, food and supplies may have been purchased by the venue. In those cases many venues have gone so far as to offer partial reimbursements to help split the cost with the event customer. In times like those it is important to be patient. For people that have booked venues on their own and purchase food on their own to bring to a venue these are risks that are unfortunately taken. Consider trying this approach…
- In times like those it is important to be patient
- Much of the food purchase for parties ahead of time can remain frozen
- Reach out to the venues to see if you can borrow freezer space until the party can be rescheduled
The world has changed as we all used to know it. Hopefully this crisis only lasts a month or two. But once life resumes it will be important to resume the events that were cancelled. That includes birthday parties, graduations and weddings. A few extra precautions can be taken in the future. Encourage everyone to wash their hands at the party, leave some hand sanitizer at each table and consider having round tables at your next event to encourage social distancing.
These practices aren’t bad to have in your repertoire. The new social norms will keep everyone safe. So look forward to your events and have peace of mind that even in crisis events will eventually be celebrated.
Customers always come first…
Tips for Customer Appreciation Events

• Loyalty programs with rewards. Give your customers a loyalty program that offers different incentives. Give points to customers on their total purchases and assign rewards to those points. Customers love gifts! Perhaps a freebie.
• Provide upgrades. If you are a service industry, give an upgrade to your best customers. Offer a special discount on a service.
• Donate. Customers love to know that a company has donated in their name. Send an email to let your customers know you have donated and added their names. This type of program shows your customer you appreciate them, and your business is a valued member of the community.
• Host an event. These events can be planned movie showings, sports events, or even a BBQ at the company headquarters. One company, NM Party Rentals, that is in the public service industry hosts a cookie tasting event every spring. Customers love this event and it creates a bond of fun and caring.
• Celebrate a milestone. Collect pertinent information about your customers and build a relationship by sending offers on their birthdays, on their anniversaries, or on the day they signed up for your loyalty program
• Send a handwritten note. A handwritten note shows you care. For sales and service-based businesses, this is a great way to say thank you after a purchase or completing a service.
• Feature customers on social media.
• Pick a Fan of the Week and feature something about them on social media. Give them an added incentive that could include a percentage off their next purchase.
• Treat a customer. Pick a random, loyal customer and give them an unexpected discount at the checkout counter.
• Give away a little something like a friendly hello at the door.
• Give a thank you gift with every in-store purchase. It doesn’t need to be big, but it can be something like a water bottle, scarf, or lip balm.
• Send a holiday gift. At holiday time, consider giving customers a gift. It doesn’t need to be big and elaborate, but something cute and friendly, like a discount.
• Treat the customer like a VIP for a day. Cater to the customers’ wishes for a day. Employees could welcome customers, offer them a beverage, and carry bags to their cars. Treat each customer as a VIP. You only need to do this once a year as a thank you.
• Have an exclusive after-hours sale. Invite your best customers to come to your store after hours. Let them choose items for about an hour and offer discounts. Get to know your customers and learn their names. Introduce yourself and give a personal thank you.
You may not think that showing customer appreciation is one of your top advertisements, but customers loved to be thanked, and small tokens of appreciation will go a long way.
A few ideas you could use as part of your marketing can be to put a thank you note in each customer’s bag. It would be very easy to slip a pre-written thank you note into shopping bags. Thank you notes could help customers remember your warm gesture, and you can use this note to include your contact information, hours, social media accounts, and an invitation for customers to visit you often. Let your personality shine through! Use your company’s logo or tag line. Make your in-bag card memorable.
Provide a monthly email with expert tips and advice. What a priceless way to show your customers that you have the information they can use. If you are a clothing store, give tips on how to remove stains. Are you a coffee shop owner? Provide advice on how to store coffee beans.

During these times of closed shops and forced in-home stay, posted notes, email, text messages, and even a phone call will keep your company’s name in the minds of your customers. Let the customer know that you will be back and appreciate their business in the past and the future.
