About the job
Follow Up Boss is the leading CRM for real estate. Over the past year, events have emerged as an important growth channel for us, so we're bringing in the big guns (aka you) to help us level up our event marketing game.
Reporting to the Head of Partnerships, who also serves as our primary event producer, the Event Marketer will handle the close-in planning and logistics for events we host and attend. A full calendar of well-executed events will help us delight our customers and find new ones.
Practically speaking, that means:
- Source &manage venues and vendors
- Create event budgets and manage to them
- Coordinate marketing campaigns and assets to promote events, in partnership with the marketing team
- Travel to events and lead setup, daily onsite coordination and teardown
- Oversee technology/vendors to deliver online events
- Set up registrations and payment systems, answer attendee questions about registration, process refunds and one-off discounts
- Coordinate FUB-hosted activities at third-party events (e.g. organize customer dinners at major conferences we attend)
- Manage our inventory of event assets, coordinate shipping, identify what needs to be replaced, upgraded, etc.
Our events blend acquisition, retention and expansion marketing. At Follow Up Boss, we pride ourselves on putting customers first, all of the time. That means most of our marketing starts as customer marketing and expand from there. Customer marketing isn't one person's job;it's everyone's job.
