Dave Yoho Associates, established in 1962, is a trusted consulting firm that specializes in supporting small businesses, especially those operating within the in-home sales and services industry. Recognized for its extensive expertise and commitment to fostering business growth, Dave Yoho Associates offers a wide range of comprehensive consultation services. These services focus on key business areas including sales, marketing, recruitment, and management. The firm's dedication to continuous innovation allows it to adapt and refine its approach in response to evolving market trends and client needs. Over the decades, Dave Yoho Associates has built a reputation for providing practical, actionable strategies designed to improve organizational performance and drive sustainable growth for its clients.

The current role open is for a temporary, remote Event Specialist to support the successful execution of the RevX Summit, an important industry event held at the Westin Chicago Lombard from June 1 to June 4. This position centers on the full spectrum of event coordination and requires keen attention to detail and proactive communication skills. The Event Specialist will play a pivotal role in preparing for the summit by managing registration processes, overseeing the event app, assisting with slide presentations and handout materials, and serving as a responsive point of contact for sponsors and attendees alike. This role demands strong organizational capabilities and the ability to multitask flawlessly in a fast-paced environment. Ideal candidates will have event planning experience coupled with skills in event marketing strategies, excellent customer service approach, and familiarity with digital event management tools. Since the role involves remote work, candidates must also demonstrate the ability to work independently and adapt to dynamic settings while being within driving distance of the venue for critical onsite responsibilities. Prior experience handling webinars or corporate events would be a major advantage, given the nature of the assignment.

In summary, this position offers an exciting opportunity to gain valuable experience in event production within a respected consulting company known for its work in empowering small businesses.
