VIRTUAL TV BROADCASTS
The Why
Everything we know about the world has changed, including the way we now need to approach business and the VANGUARD EXPERIENCE events deliver a strong impact based on human connection and education.
And, our VANGUARD TV broadcast events allow you to speak directly and virtually to a live, engaged audience and have your content shared widely, along with additional exposure with on-demand downloads for the future. You need leads + new contacts. This show delivers them. Global events run by a director and producer that puts you on the global stage.
The What + The Where
Our technology enables us to go live and to be present in an energetic format, virtually and easily. We host this TV-style production with an excellent moderator, and each presenting partner appears for a compact live segment directly to the attendees who watch on their choice of platforms (Zoom or live Facebook streaming to amplify the audience).
Your presentation block can be used however you wish, whether it's delivering a Power Point, showing a video, preparing a special dish native to your location, or even streaming live as you walk through your hotel or your destination and take viewers on a journey. Each segment is wrapped up with Q&A that comes in live as you're presenting, and a spirited chat with the moderator on key points and takeaways.
No travel expenses, no venue expenses- you control your spend and maximize reach.
The event streams live and is also shared through our database and social channels post-event for a potential reach of over 100,000 who can download it on demand.
