Hire a talent buyer that works on your behalf - We go directly to the celebrity themselves or their personal managers and not layers of agents and middle buyers that inflate costs and add nothing to your performance.

Get a "turn key" priced performance - Understanding the complete cost of a performance typically includes the artist's performance fee, the technical production rider and all necessary travel and accommodations. It is our best recommendation that clients ask us to produce a completely turn key show inclusive of all expenses.  The risk of increased costs falls completely on us as the producers and there is no worry about "last minute" bills for "unforeseen" items. Over the years we have found that when we take the risks, our client remains pleased with the process. We find there is no good way of asking a client to pay for extras the week of the event, no matter how good the reason or how demanding the performer's whim.

Have a Pro negotiate the Production requirements  - Knowing how to "talk tech" with a major touring artist's production manager is not an enjoyable process for a first timer. In fact, even experienced producers get out witted sometimes. Most nationally touring acts have an approximately  75 page document of sound, light, staging, and musical equipment rental requirements that are perfect for a performance at Madison Square Garden.  Smaller shows, as in a performance in a hotel ballroom, must be negotiated and agreed upon by the artist. One of our technical producers working on your behalf ultimately creates a suitable production plan for the corporate event venue, typically saving the a client, as much as, $10,000 in lighting requirements alone.
