### Budget Allocation Rules by Event Type

| Type | Venue | F&B | Tech | Marketing | Speakers | Logistics |
|------|-------|-----|------|-----------|----------|-----------|
| Conference | 25% | 20% | 15% | 20% | 10% | 10% |
| Webinar | 0% | 0% | 40% | 35% | 15% | 10% |
| Workshop | 20% | 15% | 10% | 25% | 20% | 10% |
| Networking | 30% | 30% | 5% | 20% | 5% | 10% |
| Product Launch | 20% | 15% | 20% | 25% | 5% | 15% |
| Trade Show | 40% | 10% | 15% | 20% | 0% | 15% |

### Cost-Cutting Strategies (When Budget is Tight)

1. **Venue** → Use co-working spaces, university halls, partner offices
2. **Speakers** → Offer exposure/content swap instead of fees for smaller events
3. **F&B** → Breakfast/lunch only (no dinner), drink tickets instead of open bar
4. **Marketing** → Leverage speakers' audiences, partner cross-promotion
5. **Tech** → Use free tiers (StreamYard, Zoom, Luma) for <100 attendees
6. **Swag** → Digital swag bags (ebooks, templates, discount codes) instead of physical
