Meet Maria π. She signed up for your event in March, full of enthusiasm. By June, she'd quietly decided she was never coming back. She didn't even complain. That's the scary part.
Here's where it went wrong π. Five moments, none of them dramatic enough to make it into your post-event report.
It started with registration π. Three emails, one broken link, a form that timed out twice. By the time she finished signing up, she'd already used up her patience for the day.
Then the check-in line β±οΈ. Fifteen minutes just to find her own badge. Somewhere behind her, someone joked "at least the coffee's free.
The agenda changed twice and nobody told her π. She missed the one session she actually paid to see. The irony, everyone got a push notification about the after-party
Sponsors first, attendees second π’. Every banner, every shoutout, every "brought to you" reminded her she wasn't really the guest of honor.
Then it ended π. No follow-up, no recap, no thank-you. Just silence, the group chat kind of silence.
None of this was one big failure β
. There were five small ones. Which is exactly why nobody caught them in time, small cracks don't set off alarms.
Maria isn't coming back. But your next attendee still can π. Fix the workflow before the event, not in the debrief nobody reads afterward.
