Finding the perfect location is a crucial aspect of nearly every experiential project we create. We can devise the most innovative activations, but without a suitable location, our efforts would fall flat. In this blog, I\u2019ll share more about my role as a location manager and what goes into securing the ideal spot.<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”text-content”]<\/p>\n

My role\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

As a location manager, my job is to find the perfect venue that brings a project\u2019s vision to life and ensures everything runs smoothly on the day of execution. This involves everything from securing permits to coordinating relationship management. In short, anything related to the location falls under my responsibility!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Aligning with the Project Vision<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The first step is ensuring the client has a clear vision for the project. This includes understanding the objective, target audience, and campaign deployment strategy. At Megawatt, we offer support across various areas of expertise to ensure the best possible outcome. Once the vision is solidified, the next step is to consider where the target audience spends their time\u2014whether in daily life or at work. Are there specific locations that align perfectly with their needs? With this information in hand, it\u2019s time to plan. How many campaign days are required, and what will the activation schedule look like? Trust me, this can be quite the puzzle!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Preparations<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

With the plan finalized and client approval secured, the real work begins! Most locations require a permit, which can be obtained either privately or through the municipality, depending on the type of venue. But what kind of permit is needed? This varies slightly from one municipality to another. For example, a brand activation in a public space often requires a temporary event or promotional permit.<\/p>\n

When applying for a permit, it\u2019s crucial to start early. The process takes time and expertise to navigate, so it\u2019s essential to be proactive.[\/vc_column_text]

Analyzing Locations<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Beyond securing the perfect venue, gathering feedback afterward is equally important. How did the day go? Was the location as busy as anticipated? Should we consider a different approach next time?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also vital to check in with the contacts associated with the venue. Their insights can be invaluable and may offer information you wouldn\u2019t have discovered without a simple follow-up call.<\/p>\n

In Conclusion…<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Location management is much more than just finding a great spot. It requires strategic thinking, organizational prowess, and the ability to think on your feet. Even with meticulous planning, you want your activation to be in the most high-traffic locations. A flexible attitude is a must in this role![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]
