You can be mediocre. You can deliver more than expected.
You can be indifferent. You can choose to contribute and be valuable.
You can aim for the money and a short term relationship. You can show how good and important you are and gain a long partnership.
You can do underhanded tactics or play above-the-table. You can be disrespectful or choose the higher ground and show a character that a lot of people can emulate.
The event management industry is like the Star Wars Movie, you can go to the Dark Side or choose to stay, even if it is difficult, to be on the Light Side.
The force is in the middle it is up to you to tilt it to what direction you wanted to tilt it.
As an event management professional, there is always a choice.

According to Euromonitor International, “With higher
disposable incomes, consumers were encouraged to shop in higher quantities and
to spend on more expensive products in 2016. Grocery retailers enjoyed bigger
baskets, whilst non-grocery re tailers saw an increased pref erence for and
appreciation of higher-priced merchandise. This can be attributed to the
continued inflow of remittances from OFW (overseas Filipino workers) and to the
sustained growth of the BPO (business process outsourcing) sector, along with a
lower inflation rate. Accordingly, retail players strived to expand to underserved
markets, whilst new players sought to penetrate and gain from the growth in the
market.”
Every year, Exhibitors of the Store Asia Expo give a satisfaction
rating of 95% and up with the results that they generate from the expo.
The Store Asia Expo is an event managed by Ex-link Management and

So you think you have what it takes to be an event
management professional.
To be one, you have to start from zero. You cannot
automatically be an officer or leader of the team, start from the beginning.
So the more important question is are you willing to
sacrifice in order to pursue your passion?
Sacrifice entails hard work and doing things that you are
not comfortable doing. If you are looking at the bigger picture, and have
patience then the beginning steps are nothing to you.
If you are willing to give your heart and soul to that
beginning, a wonderful event management career awaits you.
This rule applies to those who wanted to make a career shift
and recent graduates.
I understand that we are in a fast paced life, that instant
gratification is the rule of thumb. However, you cannot grow a robust tree in
an instant, and you are aiming to be a strong and prolific tree, therefore,
there is a process.
But yes, you can cut short the process, and get promoted fast if you have proven
and delivered the initial results on your first assignments.
Results is king in the event management
world.
So if you are willing and accepting this reality, take the
plunge and welcome to the exciting world of event management.
And by the way, we are accepting applicants just send your
resume at info@exlinkevents.com and
if you interest us, we will reply and invite you to take an exam and be
interviewed by our managers.
See you soon :)

Event Management popularity is rising. A lot of
corporations are looking for event management companies to help them in their
public relation activities. In fact, a lot of Below-the-line activations of big
companies are outsourced to event management companies.
So what are the reasons for the event
management companies’ popularity in the Philippines and the rest of the world?
TIME SAVER
Hiring the services of event management
companies saves you time in a lot of details and requirements of your events.
In fact, event management companies have
planning templates that allow corporations to immediately see the vision and
images of their events.
Best of all, event management companies’ can
make it a reality exactly the way companies envision it.
STRESS FREE
Something magical happens when you tap the
services of event management companies. You become relaxed and focused on the
important things that matter to you.
It is a reality in the Philippines and most
parts of the world that event management is an additional burden to the
assigned person in the HR Department, Marketing Department, Administrative
Department, etc.
The magic of removing that stress fast is all
because you decided to hire an event management company.
BIG SAVINGS
Believe me, it is a lie that hiring an event
management company is expensive. It is more costly not to hire one. Here are
the reasons: (1) Staff inside the organization that have no idea or expertise
in event management may commit mistakes that may cost money and tarnish the
reputation of the company, (2) Slow achievement of tasks required to make an event
successful is costly, we all know that time is money, (3). Suppliers charge
high fees to a company that only does one event a year; event management companies
have supplier partners that can help in lowering the cost.
In Summary
Event Management will continue to be popular.
Event Management will continue to grow. It will become an important element of
companies in the years to come in all aspects of its growth and development.

Footprint - noun, the impression left by a foot or shoe on the ground or a surface. Synonym: Impression.Many people have left great impressions of themselves - some shared their ideas, some warned about the consequences of not taking action against something, and some build masterpieces. What's common among them all? They make sure that what they are doing stands out. How do they do that? They innovate.
When it was said that flying is impossible, the Wright brothers prove them wrong. When it was said that landing into the moon was impossible, astronauts proved them wrong. When it was said that we can't make smaller computers that we can bring anywhere, we are proven wrong.
Innovation is not just about building a product or a service and leaving it as it is - trends change, people's choices change, and in the blink of an eye, what seemed to be their greatest idea is not that great yet. "There has to be something better," says another.
This also applies to your business - there are great ideas out there, we just have not realized it yet. The better way to discover this is by pointing out a problem that your business can provide a solution for. That will be the framework for your business now and in the future. Don't let everyone tell you it's impossible until you try.
To sum it up, Innovators leave great footprints because they knew what's up, and they won't stop at nothing to prove everyone that they are wrong and it's possible.
This Friday, June 23, join Mazars Asia Pacific's Innovation Evangelist David Nosibor as he comes to Manila for the Innovation Master Class at the Tower Club Makati. Seats are filling up, so don't wait and call Ex-Link Events at (+63 2) 633-0153 / 643-3887 / 535-1150, SMS (+63) 920-924-2532 / (+63) 920-981-4376, email info@exlinkevents.com, or message us on Facebook (@masterclassphilippines).

The 7th Exlinkevents Annual Sharing Day with the Dumagats of Baranggay Calawis , Antipolo, Rizal is one of the highlights of being an event management professional at the company.
