Feel like you can't keep up with marketing? We'll show you how to promote events effectively in just 90 minutes per week.
If you feel like "you can't keep up with marketing your event," you're not alone. I know dozens of organizers who, after spending entire days on the substantive part of their conference or training, look at their empty social media calendar in the evening and feel overwhelmed.
But here's the truth: event promotion doesn't require a full-time job. What it does require is a system and work rhythm that fits into your realistic week. Today I'll show you how to spread all promotional activities across just 90 minutes weekly – without chaos, guilt, or late-night laptop sessions.
The secret to effective promotion with limited time is batch working – grouping similar tasks into specific time blocks. Instead of chaotically jumping between writing posts, answering emails, and updating your website, divide your week into three precise 30-minute sessions.
Your Monday session is your strategic moment. You're not writing content yet – just planning and analyzing.
First 10 minutes: Check your promotional calendar. When and where are you publishing this week? What are the key dates (early bird deadline, new speaker announcements, last available spots)?
Next 10 minutes: Plan your topics. Maybe this week you should feature one of your speakers? Or share part of the agenda? Don't force it – build on what you already have prepared.
Last 10 minutes: Quick analysis of the previous week. Which post had the biggest reach? Which traffic source brought the most registrations? If something worked – plan similar content.
Your Wednesday session is creative time. You already have a plan – now execute it without wondering "what to write."
First 15 minutes: Write all texts for this week. LinkedIn posts, Facebook content, newsletter copy. If you have ready communication templates – great. If not, create them now and use them in the future.
Next 10 minutes: Prepare graphics. Canva, templates from previous events, speaker photos. You don't need to be a graphic designer – you need to be consistent in style.
Last 5 minutes: Set up automatic reminders. If your registration system allows automatic email setup – do it now. Set once, they work without your involvement.
Your Friday session finalizes the week and prepares ground for the next one.
First 15 minutes: Publish or schedule content. Most platforms allow post scheduling – use it. Social media, newsletter, event page updates.
Next 10 minutes: Reply to comments, messages, and inquiries. Respond to activity around your content. This builds engagement and trust.
Last 5 minutes: Check that everything works. Registration links, forms, payments. Better to catch an error on Friday than Sunday evening.
Don't reinvent the wheel. If you wrote a good post last year about why people should attend your event – use it again. Update the date, maybe change one example, but don't write everything from scratch.
Set "promotion days" and stick to the rhythm. Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Or Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. Doesn't matter which, what matters is consistency. Your audience will get used to the rhythm, and you'll gain structure.
Group similar tasks. On Wednesday, you don't answer emails – you just write. On Friday, you don't create graphics – you just publish. This significantly increases efficiency.
If something works – repeat it. Have a post that brought lots of registrations? Write something similar next week. Marketing isn't a creativity contest – it's a system for generating predictable results.
The truth is, even the best promotional plan won't work if you spend hours manually sending reminders or exporting attendee lists to Excel.
A good registration system is like a good assistant – it handles routine tasks for you so you can focus on creating value. Automatic reminders mean you set them once and they work throughout the entire registration period. Ready email templates allow professional communication without hours spent on each message.
Real-time statistics tell you which traffic sources work best – without needing to manually compile data. And easy attendee list export enables remarketing and building your database for future events.
At CONREGO, all these features are standard, not extras for additional fees. This means you can dedicate your 90 weekly minutes to strategy and content creation, not fighting technical limitations.
You don't need a week off to effectively promote your event. You don't need a marketing team or budget for an agency either. You need a clear system that fits into your realistic week.
90 minutes divided across three days is less than one TV episode. It's time you can find even in the most packed week. The benefits? Consistent social media visibility, regular contact with potential attendees, and a sense of control over event promotion.
Remember: there's no perfect promotional strategy, but there is a strategy better than no strategy. Start with these 90 minutes weekly. Test the system for a month. You'll see that promotion stops being a source of stress and becomes a predictable part of event organization.
And with a good registration system? You'll have half the work off your plate.
