Organizing an open house: our approach
When organizing an open houseor open house, there is a lot to consider. To make sure you don’t forget anything, D&B Eventmarketing developed a method consisting of six phases.
Phase 1: Orientation and Strategy
Why organize an open house? First and foremost, because an open house is the perfect opportunity to bring your organization to the attention of various target audiences. Therefore, start early with determining a strategy. Ask yourself the following questions: • What is the goal of the open house? What is the ambition? • Who are the target groups? For example: potential employees, employees’ families, press, contacts, or customers. • Who is going to organize the open house? Write down these ideas.
Phase 2: Assemble a Team

Phase 3: Open House Content
What activities will take place during the open house? What do you want to showcase? What feeling do you want them to leave with? Write down the objectives for each target group. Then, formulate how you will address these objectives. This will create a program that appeals to each audience.
Phase 4: Communication
Review which communication tools your company has and how you can use them. Think of newsletters, employee magazines, websites, social media, and press contacts. Also, involve your colleagues. They are the most important ambassadors for your organization. Additionally, ensure your contact list is up-to-date.
Phase 5: Production
Time for the actual organizing! Ensure that the atmosphere and program match the ambitions for the open house. Make decisions about invitations, entertainment, activities, and catering that contribute to the goal and appeal to the various target groups.
