8 Keys to Hosting a Successful Virtual Awards Ceremony

When your team reaches its sales goal for the year or performs in the clutch when the pressure is on, you may recognize them for their hard-earned efforts with an award, done on the spot, or perhaps at a year-end award ceremony. But due to the shutdown caused by COVID-19, your annual gala may be done electronically this year. Not to worry. Here are a few ways to make your virtual awards ceremony worthy of its own recognition:

1. Simple & Reliable

Choose a simple and reliable virtual conferencing tool that everyone is comfortable using.

2. Well In Advance

Send out invitations well in advance of the event and request that potential gusts RSVP.

3. Know What to Expect

Describe what the ceremony will include so participants know what to expect.

4. Dress for Success

Urge attendees to dress the same way they would at an in-person ceremony - Formal Attire.

5. Announce the Winners

Consider informing award winners prior to the announcement so they can plan an acceptance speech.

6. Keep it Brief

Keep the award ceremony brief so participants remain actively engaged.

7. Virtual Backgrounds

Have guests use a Themed Background to add to the festivity's visual ambiance.

8. Personalized Gifts

Simplify distribution of award with a universal keepsake, such as an inscribed win glass.
