He said it didn't matter which one she asked, because they all have the same answer. That answer is attendee retention.ㅤKen Holsinger, SVP of Industry Research & Insights at Freeman, breaks down what the data actually shows: the average year-over-year attendee retention rate across hundreds of events is 27%. Even on a three-year rolling cycle, it barely reaches the mid-thirties. Ken walks through exactly what that costs event organizers in customer acquisition dollars, why most teams don't even have retention on their dashboard, and why your post-event survey will never tell you the answer you need.ㅤ👤 About Ken HolsingerKen Holsinger is the SVP of Industry Research & Insights at Freeman, the global event services and production company. He leads the teams behind the Freeman Trends Report, one of the most widely referenced research publications in the events industry. Ken sold his previous tech company to Freeman about 10 years ago, holds multiple hardware, software, and process patents, and is a frequent keynote speaker at major industry events including ECEF and PCMA Educon.ㅤ✅ The Event QuestionKristin sent Ken three questions before recording. He said they all have the same answer. The questions: What separates events that grow consistently from the ones that plateau? What's one data point event organizers are ignoring that would completely change their strategy? How should event marketers actually be measuring success today?ㅤ📌 What You'll LearnThe average year-over-year attendee retention rate across hundreds of events is 27%. Even when you extend to a three-year cycle, it only reaches the mid-thirties. Most organizers don't know this number because it's not on their dashboard.Customer acquisition costs to market to event attendees run between $100 and $300 per person. For a 1,000-person event, replacing churned attendees costs between $70,000 and $250,000 a year. Even attendees on a three-year cycle carry ongoing marketing costs to keep them warm.When Freeman researchers went to hundreds of events and asked what their attendee retention rates were, the organizers couldn't tell them. Retention isn't a standard metric most teams track. That has to change.Your post-event survey only captures people who came back. The people who didn't return won't fill it out. You have to actively go after the ones who left and ask them why.Attendees come to events to learn, network, have fun, and do business. Loyalty isn't built in general sessions or classrooms. It's built through the connections people make with each other, which means event design needs to create space for that.Millennials and Gen Z are now the largest group of event attendees and the growth engine the industry needs. They trust events as a channel, but loyalty takes time and they haven't built it yet. Member-driven organizations especially need to understand what retains them.Events that grow vs. events that plateau: the difference is retention. When retention is higher, organizers can put resources toward improving the event instead of constantly churning the attendee list.ㅤ🎭 The Ridiculous QuestionWould you rather have to dance every time you hear music, or sing everything you say? Ken picked singing without hesitation. Nobody wants to see him dance. What most people don't know: he was in bands in college and sang opera.

    Events are traditionally designed around content delivery and expected outcomes. But what happens to the actual human experience when attendees arrive stressed, overstimulated, and carrying the weight of their daily lives?

    Host Kristin Nagle tackles this exact disconnect with Yush Sztalkoper, CMP. Yush explains why attendees never arrive at an event as a blank slate.

    Listeners will hear how to shift their planning focus upstream. Yush details the high demands events place on nervous systems, from constant social interaction to context switching. By understanding the formula of demand plus capacity, event professionals can build gatherings that actually fit their audience.

    ✅ The Event Question

    Kristin Nagle asks: "Events are often designed for content and outcomes. What gets missed about how people actually experience them?"

    📌 What You'll Learn

    • Assess what attendees carry with them before they even step foot in the venue.
    • Recognize the hidden demands of your event, including energy requirements, social interaction, and context switching.
    • Design upstream by mapping the pressure your environment places on human capacity.
    • Apply the core equation of event success: Demand plus capacity equals fit.
    • Provide quiet spaces and built-in pacing so attendees can regulate their nervous systems.

    🎭 The Ridiculous Question

    Kristin asks: "Would you rather give up your favorite app or your favorite snack?"

    Yush chooses to give up her favorite snack. She prefers keeping apps that enhance her life, specifically her own free tool, Capacity Reflection™, which helps users see their environmental demands and capacity levels.

Host Kristin Nagle asks Caitlin Book, Senior Events Manager at Backblaze, this critical question. They discuss why booth architecture is just as important as the swag on the tables. Caitlin explains the value of open floor plans and why putting up walls can subconsciously turn attendees away.ㅤThe conversation covers specific tactics, such as pre-show sales outreach to secure meetings before the doors even open. Listeners will hear how to use gamification to encourage meaningful interactions rather than hit-and-run swag-grabbing. Caitlin also shares why training your booth staff to stay approachable is your ultimate secret weapon on the show floor.ㅤGuest BioCaitlin Book is the Senior Events Manager at Backblaze, a publicly traded cloud storage and computer backup provider.
