 Programming: Based on a careful assessment
of needs and budget, we will prepare for you a list of options.
Our extensive listings, constantly updated routing schedules
and information, and personal relationships with top national
and regional artists and managements assure you of lowest
possible fees and prompt service on availabilities and technical
issues. This service is free of charge to clients who book
talent through us.

Booking:
Once you've selected the artists, we prepare and issue
contracts covering all aspects of the date. We provide promotional
information, recordings, photos, etc. and we review with the
buyer and the artist all the technical aspects of producing
the date in the specific venue. We generally receive a commission
of 5-15% of the talent fee for this, depending on various
factors. We're always happy to discuss this in advance of
a booking.

 Talent Coordination:
This is a separate service that often overlaps
with booking. It involves making certain that all of the requirements
of the buyer, the artist, and the venue are met successfully
and cost-effectively. An artist will often have many and specific
needs for providing the best show possible, including technical
needs, hospitality, transportation, accommodations, and more.
We'll figure out what's most important and help you wade through
the maze.

Promotion
& Marketing Services: People have to know about it!
We can help with publicity services such as announcements,
press conferences, releases, etc.; direct mail and Internet;
and advertising placement in print and broadcast media.
Production
Services: Hiring a great act is just the first part of
the process. Frequently, sound systems, lighting, back line
equipment, even stage and stage roof systems have to be set
up for a show. We can assist you in securing the best production
vendors, carefully matched to the artist and venue, at the
lowest possible cost.
Sponsorship: Sponsorship is the fastest-growing and fastest-changing
area of marketing today. Opportunities abound; but to profit
from sponsorship in this mercurial environment, you need an
inside track to opportunities, trends, and competitive information.
Sponsorship is the only form of marketing that is mutually
beneficial to the business community and to the local and
regional community of their consumers. We can help you target
and acquire major sponsors and underwriters well-matched to
your objectives.
