Learnings

Add some thing here after the event that you think would be good for future coordinators to keep in mind. Here are some examples:

  • Bring a credit card reader: We should bring a credit card reader next time we sell shirts at a event. A few people were unable to make a purchase because they did not have cash on them.

  • Coordinate schedules: We had a great spot this year and lots of people stopped by our booth. This meant that we had to have about 3 people staffing the booth at all times. We should try to coordinate schedules better next time so that we are also able to participate more in the conference.
