How to Land that Next Big Event Contract

<p>In this episode, Logan and guest co-host Erin Leonard get into a question a lot of event pros have quietly wondered about: how do you actually break into big events? From trade shows like CES to the Olympic Games, they talk about how smaller companies and independent planners can find their way into large-scale, high-attendance events, what those opportunities actually look like, and how to position yourself to be part of a bigger team. If you&#39;ve ever watched a massive event and wondered how to get a seat at that table, this episode is your starting point.</p><p>SHOW NOTES:</p><p>Purchase tickets for the 2026 Better Events Conference: https://bettereventspod.com/conference</p><p>Purchase our on-demand How to Start an Event Planning Business Workshop: https://bettereventspod.com/workshop</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with Erin Leonard:</strong></p><p>Website: https://erinleonardevents.com/</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/erinleonardevents/</p><p>LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/%E2%9C%A8-erin-leonard-cmm-66155a59/</p><p>Learn more about the pod, Better Events Conference and more: https://bettereventspod.com/the-latest</p><p>Want our updated free run of show template?
