Christmas Parties: A Business Opportunity
November 21, 2019
Once you know what the tone of your party will be it’s only a matter of finding a venue to suit the sort of gettogether you’ve got planned. There is a diverse selection of fantastic venues to choose from and thus you are assured to make your event one to remember.
What sort of vibe do you want to create?
You can decide to go for an upbeat and contemporary party or you can opt for a classic and elegant event. There is a huge selection on offer; ranging from the luxurious yet cosy to the modern and trendy. Imagine hosting an event in the amazing the neo-classical setting of One Marylebone or impressing your guests with the luxurious and trendy Building Six at the O2. No matter what route you go down your party will be one to remember. Think about the age range and type of people you have employed at your company when deciding on what type of vibe and atmosphere you’d like to create. The younger generation prefers an electric and colourful vibe whilst the older generation tends to prefer something classier and more sophisticated.
Don’t forget: Your Christmas party is a business opportunity
Christmas is the right time to thank your colleagues and clients for a year of great teamwork. It’s a brilliant team building and client relations event. The better the party the more effective it will be in terms of corporate opportunity. There are also shared Christmas venues today, meaning you can network with other businesses and individuals. This could be your next big hiring opportunity! Employee onboarding is critical for businesses today and making a great first impression is the best way to start off and tempt people to join your firm.
Don’t go for the cheapest and easiest venue you can find. Show your employees that they are appreciated and they will reward you with high levels of productivity. Imagine how they would feel if you choose the likes of the world-famous Bloomsbury Ballroom with its spectacular architecture and elegant facilities as your Christmas party venue. Or how your team would feel at the Electrik Ballroom at Old Billingsgate. They will marvel at the fantastic interiors; boasting high ceilings and pillars which are offset by dramatic and trendy furnishings and brilliant dance action.
Book your venue early
Early booking is an absolute must in order to secure the best venues for your business and avoid disappointment. Everyone wants an exclusive London venue and thus they get reserved well in advance. If you want one then you’d better get moving early in the year. You could be the organiser of a Christmas party no one forgets – but only if you plan in advance!
Don’t overlook the convenience factor
And last but not least, planning an unforgettable party is important, but don’t make your guests travel to the end of the world in order to be able to enjoy it. Pick a venue in a convenient location which will be easy to get to. Remember to take public transport routes into consideration as not everybody drives. Furthermore, considering nearby hotels is recommended as it’s likely a lot of guests will want to enjoy an alcoholic drink and thus won’t be able to drive home.
