The 3 Biggest Missed Opportunities When Booking Celebrity Performers

Meet & Greet with the VIPs – We find just about every celebrity we work with are happy to do a  meet & greet with your organization’s VIPs. But don’t spring it on them the week of the event or worse, the day of the performance. These requests should be well planned and made part of the initial appearance contract.

The Private “in-concert” Performance – Many Celebrity musical artists are pleased to be asked to perform at corporate events. The private aspect means no promotion to the public. However, within your organization a lot can be done to rally enthusiasm and grow attendance.  Internal promotion can whip of enthusiasm and get prospects to attend your event over your competitors.

Customization to your Specific Event – Comedians across the board enjoy riffing on a specific client industry or audience, but many also enjoy getting the CEO into their act. For concert performers, there are many musical tie ins as well… Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing”  has been turning up on corporate stages regularly.  More then a few event themes have been enhanced by Tina Turner’s “Simply the Best” … maybe there is a song that makes your marketing message come to life?
