Evently Case Study

Introduction

This case study explores the design and development of Evently. A platform for Event listing and creation, while acting as an ecosystem between, artists, event go-ers, event organizers and venue owners.

Problem Statement

The event going/planning/organizing process is often fragmented and time-consuming, with event-goers struggling to find desirable events, artists struggling to find suitable venues and venues facing challenges in connecting with relevant artists. Evently aims to address these pain points by providing a centralized platform for event-goers, artists and venues to discover, connect, and collaborate on events

Research

To better understand the needs and the direction of the market, I conducted user interviews and competitor analysis.

Key Findings

Problems and pain points identified

Competitors lacked a robust search feature which included:

  • There is no database with events or venues and information regarding them.

  • No easy and formatted access to information such as: Time, Date, Price, Venue

  • Searching events by Venues

  • Searching events by City

  • Searching events by music genre

  • Search types of events (Music Festivals, Theater, Cinema, etc..) [Not Implemented]

  • View similar events in the area

  • View other venues in the area

Identified 4 user types
  1. Event-Goers

  2. Event-Organizers

  3. Artists

  4. Venue Owners

Identified 4 user types

And 2 Event-Goer subtypes

  • I want to go somewhere where it plays “insert music genre”

  • I want to go to “Insert venue name”, are there any events there?”

Ideation

By analyzing competitors' strengths and weaknesses, we were able to identify opportunities to differentiate Evently in the market. Our platform's focus on fostering collaboration between artists and venues sets us apart from competitors and positions us as a unique solution in the event planning space. This included features such as an intuitive event search and filtering system, Venue Database, Artist Genre type database, event hosting and publishing.

Brainstorming-Prototyping-MVP

Since we identified a common need → Easy filtering of databases containing:

  • Events

  • Artists

  • Venues

And filtering them by Respectively:

Where (Event City), When (Event Date), Price Range, Genre [Events]

Where (Artist Residing in City), Artist Rate($), Artist Genre

Where (Venue City), Venue Type
