Industry Professionals for Virtual and Online Meetings

Virtual Meeting Moderators, Virtual Event Facilitators, Online Hosts

While there are many different titles used, the goal is the same: Using skilled professionals as temporary staff  to augment an in-house team.

  • Increase the capacity of an existing team
  • Minimize overtime, nights and weekends when moderating virtual events
  • Increase flexibility by utilizing an on-demand virtual team
  • Hire specialists experienced with the virtual “on-site”.

Virtual meetings come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes they happen quickly with shortened planning cycles when flexibility is key. In that situation, being able to scale up and down quickly is essential, especially with ever tightening budgets. In other instances, planners are overseeing numerous virtual events while also acting as the facilitator during the meetings. Unfortunately, that’s almost impossible to do well if there is a high volume of events. Virtual event staff from GCG Event Partners can ease the load, execute the meetings, and be trusted to do the job well.

Virtual Meetings Are Leading to Increased Workloads

One trend we’re seeing is clients with increasing meeting loads. Since virtual events are sometimes cheaper, quicker or faster, planners are being expected to produce more of them in a shorter period or time.

Monitor, Moderate, and Facilitate Multiple Events

With increased workloads, however, planners are also expected to monitor and moderate their virtual meetings in addition to doing their core job. Often, it’s simply not feasible.

The Role of Virtual Meeting Facilitators

A Virtual Meeting Facilitator may have many different names. Virtual Moderator, Virtual Host, Virtual Meeting Professional and Virtual Meeting Planner are some of the more common ones. Their roles can be just as varied as their names, defined by each and every meeting.

Unique Virtual Meeting Needs

With planners having their own individual styles for their events, the needs for every event are a little different. A moderator’s main role is to make sure a virtual meeting proceeds as planned. Sure, there are some common responsibilities:

  • Open the meeting
  • Troubleshoot issues
  • Introduce speakers
  • Open breakout rooms
  • Facilitate Q&A
  • Handle background logistics
No matter what responsibilities they are handling, the moderator is always striving to bring a planner’s vision to life. With the planner’s work in their hands, it makes sense to use trusted professionals as meeting facilitators. GCG hand-selects each Virtual Meeting Moderator for their clients based on their specific needs, and we have a large membership of experts with vairous skills to choose from.

What We Don’t Do!

We are not a one size fits all temporary staffing agency. We’re not even a generalized hospitality agency. For in-person events, we don’t provide bartenders, catering staff, or security staff. For virtual events, we don’t provide tech specialists or IT professionals. We offer vetted and experienced meeting and event industry professionals who help our clients meet their goals.

Our event professionals have a minimum of 3 years’ experience, but average far more than that. Members of our network have many credentials and accreditations such as CMPs. Our Virtual Meeting Facilitators and Moderators come to the table having done the job before and having a good knowledge of how to help you.
