The LavaCon Content Strategy Conference | 5–8 October 2025 | Atlanta, GA

Build a Business Case to Attend

How do you convince your boss that attending LavaCon is a smart investment? Build a business case that connects your organization’s needs with the LavaCon program.

Do you want to improve the customer experience? Save on production or translation costs?  Learn how better content can increase revenue?

LavaCon offers sessions and case studies that will help you make a difference in your organization.

Where to Start

If you’ve never written a business case, start by reading the Intercom magazine article How to Build a Business Case by Jack Molisani and Bonni Graham (in PDF format).

Magazine cover: how to build a busniess case

Next:

  • List all the challenges you encounter in your job and how those situations cost your company time and money.
  • Download the 2024 conference Schedule at a Glance (PDF format) and highlight the sessions and workshops you think will address those challenges.
  • Mention that the 2025 program will contain similar tracks and sessions, and that registering for 2025 gives you access to last year’s recordings!

Build Your Business Case

To write the business case, use a detailed template or a simple one. Show how the sessions you want to attend will help your organization.  (Focus on what’s in it for the organization, not what’s in it for you.)

Is Your Boss Still Not Convinced?

Contact Jack Molisani and he will put your manager in touch with others who have sent people to LavaCon, so they can speak manager-to-manager about the value of attending.
