Cue 01 How we work
One day to get it right.
Venues go about 26 weeks out and sponsor asks about 18. Miss them and the last month goes to catching up. Every conference has its election day. We plan it backward from the doors, with one producer, one decision-maker and a war room on the day. Nothing passes between agencies.
Cue 02 The 2027 Conference Desk
Three spring conferences a season.
Your spring conference, run from venue hold to the report your board reads, with one producer you can call. Book by December 18 to hold a January start.
Admit one Season 2027
- Event management and communications, one producer
- Sponsor deck and tier sheet in the first 30 days
- AGM run of show and floor plan
- Board-ready wrap-up report and a 2028 date-hold plan, so next year starts from this one
The difference
Three vendors, or one producer.
Event budgets often leak in the handoffs between a planner, a designer and an agency. Here is what changes when one producer holds all of it.
| What you need | A planner, a designer and an agency | One producer at Churchill Strategy |
|---|---|---|
| Someone who holds the plan | Split across three contracts | One producer, from the venue hold to the board report |
| A price before you call | Three quotes to collect | Published starting prices in CAD |
| Clear vendor bills | Varies by vendor | You sign and pay the venue, catering and AV directly |
| A plan on a deadline | Varies by vendor | Your full plan in 30 days on the Conference Desk, or next month's fee is waived |
| Something for the board | Yours to assemble | A wrap-up report your board can use |

Before the call
Questions boards ask first.
What does it cost?
Starting prices are published: $1,500 for a Conference Plan, from $2,500 for a town hall, from $3,500 for an AGM and from $6,000 a month for the Conference Desk. Nothing is billed by the hour. See every package.
Who pays the venue and vendors?
You do. You sign and pay venue, catering and AV directly.
How fast can we start?
A 20-minute call, then a written proposal within 2 business days. Book by December 18 to hold a January start.
Do you guarantee attendance?
No. We guarantee our delivery: your plan on a deadline, or money off. We never guarantee attendance, votes or sponsorship totals. Full terms.
Do you run the vote at our AGM?
No. You run the vote and the governance. We run the room, the timing and the sign-in.
Do you work outside Edmonton?
Yes, across Alberta. Travel is extra outside Edmonton.
What happens after the event?
On the Conference Desk, you get a report written for your board: what happened, what it cost and what to do next year.
