Conference/Event MC
It is always an honor to be asked to MC an event, for event organizers to put their trust in me to deliver an engaging, entertaining experience.
I see the role of MC as the link between the audience, the speakers, the content and the experience. Behind the scenes and prior to the event, I like to connect (phone, zoom or in person) with all of the speakers to better understand what they will be communicating, and to ensure that I link their messages to the overall theme. My intros of speakers are never reading their bio – that’s boring! I’m all for sharing something a little deeper than that, to help the audience connect with the human behind the titles and accolades.
My role is about understanding the deeper outcomes and key themes that the organisers are wanting to convey, and to be completely up to date with current and emerging issues in specific industry events. And, of course, to ensure that the day progresses smoothly for all involved.
My style is conversational, humorous (where appropriate) with simple messaging and high energy. (and occasional blasphemy….hope that’s ok! – if it’s not, I’m probably not your person….) #justsaying
My role is to be in service of the event. Low-maintenance for organizers, High-energy for audiences.
If this sounds like what you are looking for, I’d love to chat further.
PS. Part of this chat will involve the uncomfortable ‘cost’ conversation. MC-ing is part of my job, it’s not a side gig that I do for fun (my accountant keeps reminding me that “free is not a viable business model”…. and of course, he’s right).
If you’re still keen, let’s talk and see if we are right for each other!
Pip Carter
Client Feedback:
Prior to the conference she also asked for the names of a few of our customers to speak to and get a feel for what it is like to walk in their shoes. She did this so her messaging and stories were audience relevant and hit the mark – and they sure did. Her conference opening story had everyone ‘tuned in’ right from the start and even our Chief executive specifically noted what a great opening it was.
In all my time working with MC’s, Pip was the first person to have requested to speak to people who would be in the room, and the difference it made to the event was significant, making the conference even more meaningful and memorable.
She has a warm and vivacious personality, and her sense of humour and often needed quick wit meant that there was never a dull moment. The facilitated Q&A with our speakers was thoughtful and relevant, she was flexible with changes and timings, quickly made friends with the AV Tech and venue staff, and essentially made my job as Conference Manager easy and hassle free. She does and has it all when it comes to the attributes we all want in an MC. She is the complete, and nicely wrapped, package!
If you are looking for an entertaining, engaging and enthusiastic MC to take your conference to the next level and make it memorable and magic, Pip Carter is exactly who you need. "
