BACK UP. WHAT’S A HOST?

Elevate Hosts, sometimes called Experience Leaders, serve clients by leading event activations across the country. When we say event hosts, many people think red shoes, smiling faces, and enthusiastic emcees. It’s an accurate image (and one we love!) but it’s not the only aspect of an experience leader’s role.

A host’s responsibilities might also include:

- Designing crowd engagement and team building activations

- Coordinating logistics with event planners and clients

- Researching and managing sound equipment

- Creating custom playlists for each event Ideating and executing new systems, ideas, and technology

- Participating in team collaboration across multiple projects

The ultimate goal of an experience leader is to make the client the hero. This means going above what’s expected to surprise and delight, and deliver remarkable experiences for our clients and their guests.

WHY THE RED SHOES? The red shoes have become somewhat iconic, creating a simple yet lasting impression on clients and their guests. But you won’t find the red shoes at every Elevate event. So when do we decide to strut this particular footwear? Each of our clients deserve a custom experience and we aim to design an event that shouts their brand.

We take into account everything from audience engagement to our team’s attire. When we lead an event, we no longer represent Elevate, but rather, we point all attention to the true hero–our clients. The red Nike Air Force 1 shoes currently come into play for three specific partners: Chick-fil-A, Delta and Coca-Cola.

We work alongside these organizations to build their brand, and the shoes–though simple–play a significant role in this strategy.

We’d love to hear what makes your organization stand out. Drop a comment below to share your thoughts!
