CHALLENGES
Before Timely, Awin’s event calendar was a PDF document that was created internally, and sent out to customers once a year listing all their global events.
Once the COVID-19 pandemic started and progressed, they looked for something easier to update than the classical, but time-consuming, PDF format.
Their old solutions and document-based calendars were just not working anymore. “It was just not doable due to all the event cancellations and rescheduling that were happening during the pandemic”, said Alexandra about the manual updates and redesigns of all their several calendars.
Being a large international marketing company, when looking for event management software, Awin's main challenge was to find a solution that would work for all teams, and could be used on a global scale.
In sum, Awin’s goals included:
SOLUTION
Event Management Centralization
Timely event management system offered Awin a centralized, smart way to publish, update and manage all their global event calendars. Now, they just need to publish or update the event once. Timely event platform syncs and updates the information in all their websites, for all markets, at once.
Advanced Design Tools
As a marketing company, Awin has a well-defined visual identity and specific branding needs. Timely’s design customization tools allowed them to fully personalize their events calendar. Moreover, Timely's role-based system prevented users to compromise the previously set calendar appearance.
Globally-Focused Features
Timely events calendar software, with all its enterprise features, has helped Awin with their global calendar managing needs enormously. Along with customized region filters, Awin also enjoys the Timely’s event calendaring features multiple time zones and multi languages, which are perfect for international audiences.
RESULTS
With Timely Event Calendar Software for Corporate Events, Awin was able to optimize their calendar management routine, improve events calendar design, and offer a great user experience to their global audience.
Indeed, Timely Event Calendar Software simplified calendar management for Awin’s global team. Their global events calendar, which was fully customized to mirror Awin's brand, now updates and syncs automatically.
Awin uses Timely's event categorization tools to establish a region filter since their calendar needs to be adaptable to several different places of the world. These filters allow Awin’s audience to easily search and access relevant events.
Furthermore, being able to display different time zones and languages in their calendars allows Awin to personalize their audience’s event discovery experience according to their individual locations and preferred idioms.
“We frequently receive feedback from clients about our global events calendar! They enjoy navigating through our category and location filters to find what they need on their own languages”, shared Alexandra.
Over all benefits Timely brought Awin, the software saves them a lot of time. What used to be a time-consuming process is now done “with one or two clicks”, as Alexandra puts it, which has been saving Awin a lot of internal resources. “Our Timely events calendar is super easy to use and update.”, she added.
In sum, Timely helped The Awin Group on:
