Atlas Marketing Reviews & Testimonials
Marketing Strategy Review from Rich Barcaskey
Atlas has grown the readership of our publications and sharpened how we talk to our members. They're responsive, they hit their deadlines, and their attention to detail is obvious in everything they touch.
Crisis Management Review from William Shea
Our team walked away from that training genuinely more aware of how to handle a crisis, I could see it in their engagement afterward. Atlas delivered everything on time and followed up like true professionals.
Marketing Review from Tina Wolff
We needed a technical proposal turned around fast, and even when our own team ran behind, Atlas stayed nimble and kept a positive attitude through it all. The final product was polished and easy to follow, despite how technical the content was.

Hiring Guide: How to Choose a Leading Event Marketing Agency in the US
Why should I hire an event marketing expert?
Event marketing helps businesses grow by increasing brand awareness, strengthening customer loyalty, and building meaningful relationships.
Its key advantages include:
- Brand building
Events let customers experience a brand firsthand through visuals, messaging, and product demonstrations, which creates stronger emotional connections and more positive brand perceptions. - Increased sales
Businesses can drive revenue through on-site purchases, exclusive event offers, and follow-up promotions that create urgency and encourage buying.
Over 80% of organizers consider in-person events the most impactful marketing channel, according to Swoogo. - Customer engagement
Interactive and personalized experiences help businesses connect more deeply with customers, gather feedback, and improve products or services.
Swoogo’s report also highlights that 55% of event attendees prefer in-person events over virtual ones. - Networking
Events make it easier to meet new customers, strengthen existing relationships, and form partnerships with industry peers, suppliers, and stakeholders.
Event organizers report increased attendance at their in-person B2B conferences, with over 50% seeing growth in attendance. - Data collection
Events provide valuable customer insights, including contact details and behavior patterns, which can be used to improve marketing strategies and decision-making.
How do I choose the right B2B event marketing agency for my brand?
Start by defining your event goal with absolute clarity. Are you trying to generate leads, build brand awareness, launch a product, or strengthen customer relationships?
Different agencies excel at different objectives.
- Look for agencies with proven experience in your specific event type, whether that's trade shows, conferences, experiential activations, or product launches.
- Evaluate their understanding of your target audience size and demographics. Industry experience matters because healthcare events differ dramatically from technology conferences or consumer brand activations.
- Compare creative vision by reviewing case studies and past work that demonstrates innovative thinking.
- Assess logistics capability by asking about their vendor relationships, venue networks, and execution track record.
- Budget control is essential, so ask how event marketing agencies manage costs and what reporting you'll receive throughout the planning process.
According to Splash's research, 77% of marketers say events are the most effective marketing channel for their company.
What kind of ROI can I expect from event marketing?
According to Swoogo, 52% of businesses believe that events deliver the highest ROI compared to other marketing channels, by fostering brand loyalty, building relationships, and creating memorable experiences.
Companies that invest $50–$100 million in event marketing report strong returns.
About 75% expect an ROI greater than 5:1, while 48% of brands anticipate returns between 3:1 and 5:1.
In addition, 44% of marketers say their event marketing efforts deliver an average ROI of 3:1, according to Equation Events.
You can easily calculate simple ROI with the following formula ROI = (Net Profit / Total Investment) x 100, and get a clear percentage that shows how much return you get for every dollar you invest.
If you’d like to estimate how much money you’ll generate as a direct result of the event, you’ll want to calculate the Advanced or Incremental ROI, and the formula is Incremental ROI = (Incremental Revenue - Event Cost) / Event Cost x 100.
According to Think Orion, typical ROI from event marketing ranges between 25%-34%, depending on the industry, making it an effective and profitable marketing strategy for businesses across various sectors.
Pre-event marketing, including email campaigns, social media posts, and targeted ads, helps maximize ROI.
The Agility PR Solutions research revealed that more than 75% of participants reported heightened trust in brands following personal interactions at events.
Many businesses experience an immediate increase in sales during or shortly after events, driven by live demonstrations and direct interactions, and gain valuable opportunities for personalized follow-up to turn interested attendees into customers.
What is the difference between an event marketing agency and an event production company?
Event marketing agencies focus on the strategic elements that drive business results.
They develop messaging, define audience engagement strategies, create content, manage promotion, and measure outcomes against business objectives.
Event production companies focus primarily on logistics and execution.
They handle staging, audiovisual equipment, lighting, venue management, and technical direction.
Think of it this way: a marketing agency determines what story you want to tell and how to tell it, while a production company ensures the stage, lights, and sound work flawlessly when you tell it.
Many full-service event marketing agencies handle both strategy and production, providing end-to-end support.
However, some brands prefer to separate these functions, hiring a marketing agency for strategy and a production company for execution.
