FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on a few factors such as distance to travel, materials, and type of show expected (i.e. stage show, close-up, walk-around)
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new customer, I enjoy finding out more about the event that they're hosting. Is it a big corporate party of 200+ people? Is it a small cocktail hour? I like to know the dress code so that not only will my style match what the group but my color coordination can match the theme. I like to know if there's an honoree (like if it's someone's birthday) or VIP that the host would like to play to. I like to know more about the event space and how much room there is to play in addition to the schedule for the night so that we can coordinate when and where to be. When working with a new client, I like to reassure them that the performance is about the event, not me, and I'll do my best to make sure that it's conveyed. I show up earlier than my call time is to make sure things are in order and help where I can.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Although there is no magic "school," I have had the opportunity to work with and be mentored by some big names in the industry to help me develop the skills I have.
