Life On The Road For Event Planners – #EventIcons Episode 172

Life on the road for event planners can be quite the hassle. Just ask our phenomenal hosts Brandt Krueger and Lindsay Martin-Bilbrey! The two have been on the road since early May, and boy, do they have a lot to share! Anyone who works in the event industry knows that traveling is an inevitable part of the job description. And even if you are more of the stay at home type, if you want in, you have to learn how to adapt. Living off of a suitcase isn’t exactly glamorous, but it can be rather fun. Plus, there is always something to learn with each new trip, and with each new event.

Here at Endless, we’re very much aware of the difficulties life on the road for event planners entails. And because we love to make your life easier, we put together today’s #EventIcons, starring two of our favorite icons. This week, Brandt and Lindsea will walk you through their favorite tips and tricks to make life on the road easier. Everything from what snacks to pack to their go-to equipment, these two have a world on information to share. So buckle up and join the road trip, it’s time to join yet another iconic discussion!
