Event entertainment plays a huge role in the way guests remember your function.

With the variety of entertainment available, selecting the right event entertainer is crucial to your success.

Here are some tips that can help you narrow the search.

• Decide how you want your guests to feel.

There are different reasons to have entertainment.
Do you want them active? Motivated? Educated?
Or do you want guests to feel relaxed? Laughing? Stress free?
Understanding the goal of your entertainment will narrow your focus.

• Understand Your Guests.

If you have a wide age range, music may not be a good choice. Tastes in music vary widely and someone is bound to be unhappy by the selection and sound level.
Knowing your guests tastes helps narrow the focus.

• Ask Your Guests.

After all, they are the ones who will be watching! A simple poll asking your guests if they would prefer music, comedy, dancing, variety arts, or acrobats, can yield great insight and provide a direction that can help you avoid searching for the wrong type of event entertainment.

• Watch Video Of Entertainers.

Does the comedian actually make you laugh? Does the band have you tapping your foot? You want reactions from your audience. If the video doesn't create reaction from you, ask for more video, or look elsewhere. If you want results, and a good entertainer should be able to show them.

• When You Talk To An Event Entertainer:

Do they listen to your needs or try to sell you their show?  You want an entertainer who is more concerned with your needs than one who is trying to convince you they are the act you want. A concerned entertainer will try to understand your goals and if they are not right, be willing to suggest other possibilities to help you achieve success.
