The Double-Edged Sword of FOMO

Let's talk about FOMO — the Fear of Missing Out — and how it can quickly become dangerous at events if not handled with care.

While FOMO can be a powerful marketing tool, if you lean too heavily on it, your attendees could leave feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and dissatisfied.
