From Hard Drives to Highlights: Sam McDonald’s Guide to Post-Event Content

The Event Pro Show returns this week with host Seth Macchi, CEO of LEMG, and Sam McDonald, founder of echo, a company focused on unlocking the full value of event content. With more than 15 years in event and video production, Sam shares a thoughtful approach to transforming overlooked footage into purposeful videos, blogs, podcasts, and social content that extend the life of an event.
This conversation explores how to strengthen ROI (Return on Investment) through smarter content strategy, why post-event assets often go underused, and how to carry the energy of general sessions and presentations far beyond the live experience. It offers a clear perspective for planners, marketers, and producers looking to turn one moment on stage into ongoing impact.
