The goal
Create a custom event app to bring Avella’s sales and pharmaceutical teams closer together for their annual National Sales & Operations Meeting
Emily Masline, Marketing Manager for Avella, and her team needed an app that was user-friendly, easy for employees to navigate and would do an excellent job of connecting colleagues.
“We wanted our event to be energizing and uplifting. Our sales reps are traveling all the time — they don’t getto come to the home office very often ⏤ so it’s a chance for all of us to be together once a year. Because NSOM is our biggest internal event, it’s also the perfect opportunity to get everyone on the same page and prime them on what’s to come”

The result
An easy-to-build straightforward app to help attendees build relationships and inspire engagement
“The price and features were great. The app did everything we needed it to do and it was very user-friendly. The backend was also simple to navigate — it was a great fit all around.”
Emily Masline, Marketing Manager @ AvellaFor the 2017 meeting, Emily once again turned to Attendify to help make NSOM a success. Because it was her second year working with Attendify, Emily was already familiar with the building process, so she took the opportunity to shift her focus to attendee engagement and ensuring the event went smoothly. “The first thing I did was build out the schedule and speaker section. People would ask us about those more than anything, so we’d simply refer them to the app, saving us a ton of time while encouraging app adoption.”
