Your Guests: You have complimentary tickets as part of your sponsor agreement. Enrolling qualified guests and colleagues can save you money. If you do not have your custom link, or have questions about you guest ticket allotment, please email us at Kim@DrivenInc.com.
All registrants using a sponsor’s gifted ticket must be registered in advance. Sponsors who received additional complimentary tickets to gift clients as part of their sponsor package may not use those gifted tickets to register their own booth personnel and team members.
Please note: Driven clients and past event attendees are all gifted complimentary tickets to Take the Stage, so your complimentary tickets must be used for individuals that are not currently enrolled in any Driven programs or past event attendees that currently have complimentary tickets.
To support you in fulfilling your ticket requirement for savings on your sponsorship, we have provided proven tips below that will help get your creative juices flowing, inspire you to make it happen, and save you money (while you pay it forward to fellow exhibitors).
Download, draft your plan of attack, and know that every gifted ticket brings you one step closer to saving big dollars on your sponsorship.
Remember:
- Fulfilling these guest tickets can help you reduce the cost of your sponsor package – and you could win special prizes if you are the first to fulfill your guest ticket requirements.
- All guest registrations are also due no later than 10/11/2019
