VENUE SELECTION

OUR APPROACH

Picking a venue is more than just picking a pretty place for your event. We know the hidden gems in town as well as the lemons disguised as the must-have spot. We’ll also consider details like parking, security needs, and hidden costs at every site visit—spilling all the beans on what a venue coordinator might not tell you.

WHAT WE DO​

  • Find the perfect location for you

  • Understand the hidden prices (so you don’t have to)

ON-SITE STAFFING

OUR APPROACH

When you’re hosting your event, the last thing you want to do is load a late presenter’s presentation on a laptop moments before they step on stage, keep your eye out for wayward attendees who overindulged at the bar, or answer the same questions over and over. That’s why we provide excellent event staff—hand selected and trained by us—to be your on-site support.

WHAT WE DO​

  • Notice problems before they arise

  • Place staff strategically at every turn to ensure full coverage
