Our Approach

Our approach is simple: everything we do is to make the AV and Hybrid Event experience enjoyable and impactful. We know AV and Hybrid Events and know them very well. We offer that experience directly to you as a member of your team.

Giving Your Time Back

AV is time consuming, but you have an ENTIRE event to plan and produce.  We take that 15% of required time for AV and Hybrid Events and give it back to you.  We’re the experts so you don’t have to be; you take that extra time do what you do best, and we’ll handle the rest.

Long-term Relationships

O’Design is about the long-term, trusting relationships we have with you.  The foundation of our success lies within the client relationships we have enjoyed over the years, and our future success lies with the relationships we look forward to forming with you. We are able to provide unmatched services and results because we get to know you and genuinely want you to shine!  We look forward to working with you again and again and building a long-lasting partnership.

Helping You Be More Marketable

As your “internal AV and Hybrid Event department”, we work by your side with your clients to create the best event possible. This helps you expand your market positioning: your current clients will appreciate the additional help and expertise of a dedicated AV team, ensuring future business for you.  And potential clients will gravitate towards this unique diversity in your support staff and company offerings.

Detailed Experts

We understand the critical importance of tending to every detail.  We provide timely information and services, and study every event venue and schedule so we know exactly what is needed.  You will be amazed and relieved that you have a partner that takes care of every detail for you!

“Excellence Is In The Details”

Accountability & Affordability

Unfortunately the AV and Hybrid Event world is known for overcharging clients. If you are not asking the right questions and don’t know all required logistics, you will overpay every time. Because we are your event partners, our fees are fair and itemized so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why. You may be surprised how affordable our services are!
