Description

Chances are you’ve been overlooking a key demographic in the audience at your events – people who choose not to drink alcohol for a variety of reasons, including those in recovery.



Did you realize that could be a quarter of your audience or more? So in the same way gluten-free or vegan are now standard options at events, it’s time to reconsider the non-alcoholic beverage alternatives too.



Networking doesn’t have to happen around the bar. In this episode, Sober Life Rocks founder Laura Nelson shares strategies and practical examples on how to:



  • Change the after-hours experience to create better connections
  • Craft more creative alcohol-free drink options
  • Educate bartenders on how to make all guests feel included
  • Design interactive spaces that don’t revolve around drinking
