Meetings and events come in all shapes and sizes. From a lap top presentation to a small group to an award banquet for an audience of 2,000+, each meeting shares a common goal: to effectively communicate the message. And each event is “live” with flawless execution expected and demanded.

Gregson-Haywood Productions designs, produces and stages meetings that will move your audience. We know what works and can help you to educate, motivate, inspire or recognize achievement.

Our services can be as extensive, or as focused as you require. We can “turn-key” a meeting from site visit, to theme development, to speech writing, to a custom stage set to presenting your meeting with all the lights, sound and effects you can imagine. Or, we can provide just the specialized element you need to make your event a success.

This section includes detailed information on every aspect of meetings and events production. If you are new to meeting planning, we can provide valuable tips and insights on getting started. Seasoned professionals and novices alike can count on Gregson-Haywood Productions for powerful and flawless meeting production.

SERVICES

- Preplanning

Preplanning saves time and money. At Gregson-Haywood Productions we visit the facility to determine what will work best for your event. First we examine the physical aspects of the meeting room. There is nothing worse than arriving with a custom-built 20 foot tall set only to find out the ceiling is really 19 feet … even though the printed literature says 21 feet! We also explore how the property works; union rules, loading dock specifications, power requirements, etc. Once the site visit is complete, we present a detailed floor plan so you can review every aspect of the room and make informed decisions well in advance of your event.

 

- Theme & Logo

The theme and logo work together. They make a statement about your event and tell the audience what to expect. A well-designed logo brings the theme to life and a well-designed theme can be integrated throughout the meeting. Our gallery of logos might just give you some ideas for your next event!

- Script Writing

Script writing is an art. We have the skill to help your speakers, your Master of Ceremonies or any other presenter who could use a hand. When the theme needs to be researched, we do that too. From James Bond to Mardi Gras, we find the tie-ins to make the meeting fun and on target.

- Agenda Planning

A meeting is like a great work of music. There are exciting sections and subdued moments and all the elements build to the Grand Finale. We understand how to put the building blocks together to maximize your audience’s involvement.

- Premium Items

Premium Items can extend your meeting message well beyond the actual event. We can help with research and recommendations for the perfect items such as jackets, bags, watches, etc. If you would like, we can turnkey the whole project. We’ve also had fun designing unique awards including a branding iron for a western theme and a custom mounted trumpet display for a New Orleans/jazz theme.

- Print Design

Don’t neglect the printed literature! Quality print design reflects dramatically on your event. From custom invitations to agendas to signage, we have the graphic talent to incorporate your theme throughout your print package. We see many of our custom designed notepads being used years after the event.

We handle everything in the meeting room … period. Sure, you’re welcome to stop in and see how it’s going, but our goal is to free you up to handle the thousands of other details that always need your attention. With careful pre-planning, you already know what to expect … and we deliver.
