Goal: Target 350 participants across both in-person and online formats by the end of Q2 2025.

Key Objectives for Achieving 350 Participants:

1. Segment the Target Audience
   • In-person Format: Aim for 150 participants (based on venue capacity and logistics).
   • Online Format: Aim for 200 participants, utilizing the broader reach and flexibility of virtual sessions.
2. Diversified Marketing Channels
   • Email Campaigns: Regular updates to existing databases of potential participants.
   • Social Media Marketing: Utilize platforms like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter for paid ads and organic posts.
   • Website: Clear, compelling registration page and regular blog posts about the benefits of participation.
   • Partnerships: Collaborate with universities, businesses, and local organizations to cross-promote the program.
3. Promotional Strategies
   • Early Bird Discounts & Incentives: Offer early registration perks to boost initial sign-ups.
   • Referral Program: Encourage past participants or partners to refer others, with rewards such as discounts or exclusive materials.
   • Content Marketing: Share testimonials, success stories, and previews of program content to spark interest.
4. Engagement & Communication
   • Pre-program Webinars: Host introductory webinars to engage potential participants, address questions, and showcase the program’s value.
   • Frequent Reminders: Send weekly reminders through email and social media about registration deadlines and program details.
   • Targeted Outreach: Send personalized invitations to specific target groups (e.g., students, professionals, organizations).
5. Tracking and Reporting
   • Real-time Registration Updates: Track participant sign-ups on a weekly basis to adjust strategies if necessary.
   • Feedback Loops: Use participant feedback and survey data to continually improve promotional tactics.
   • Adjust Goals if Needed: If registration is slow in one area (online or in-person), adjust the focus on marketing efforts accordingly.
6. Post-Program Engagement
   • Alumni Network: After the program, engage participants through alumni networks and encourage them to attend future programs.
   • Follow-up with Value: Continue delivering value with follow-up materials, additional resources, or exclusive offers for future events.
