Programming it Right: Planning with Market Realities in Mind

A two-day in-person team gathering for chief executive, marketing, development, and artistic senior leaders. Sold Out - Join The Waitlist

We all feel it... things are just more expensive these days.

The impact of higher costs on the arts & cultural industry means there is no room for error when making programmatic decisions and growing customer relationships. Leaders have to get it right.

And those savvy professionals who do know this: every decision counts when making programmatic selections, building customer relationships, and curating customer experiences.

At this Convene, we will use attendee data and client case study examples to examine programming in the current economic climate and learn how customer choices shift accordingly. These insights will help attendees map customer journeys through strategic and intentional programmatic experiences. We’ll also make the connection between programming, loyalty trends, and how to create unforgettable experiences for your audience.

Each team attending will receive frameworks for:

  • Making data-informed programmatic decisions based on geographic market realities.
  • Mapping your customer’s journey to optimize their experience.
  • Implementing a repeatable customer listening strategy that meets your organization’s needs and builds trusting customer relationships.

In addition, each attending organization will receive a custom Arts Vibrancy Report for their geographic market from SMU DataArts. Zannie Giraud Voss, Ph.D. (director, SMU DataArts) will be our special guest at this convene and present on the drivers of arts vibrancy and related research. Dr. Voss will also walk through how to interpret specific market reports and answer attendees’ questions about their custom Arts Vibrancy Report.
