The Approach

EXPERIENTIAL

IRMI is an international insurance conference and one of the biggest events of the insurance industry. Aon, being a premier sponsor, hosts a VIP afterparty on day 1 that always wows and astounds. However in 2018 Aon approach Ignite Marketing Solutions after hitting a brick wall.

First, we needed a venue. With IRMI being hosted in Orlando, FL there was only one venue in mind - Universal Studios. The thrills, excitement and joy was exactly what attendees needed after 12+ hours of insurance talk. Ignite worked directly with Universal Studios to buyout the venue for the evening, negotiating all components of the experience including AV, food & bev., merchandising and talent costs for both appearances and hosts.

We presented the final plan to Aon who immediately signed off on the project, stating that "this was one of the best experiences we've ever seen presented".

Ignite put together the $1M+ experience of a lifetime driving over 3,000 attendees (an increase of 76% YoY), lowered costs by 18% YoY and a 78:1 ROI.

And they are still talking about it!
