What if your company never hired an employee?
You wouldn't be reading this for one thing. You wouldn't have a job.
And you wouldn't be planning a corporate event.
But they did hire employees. Why?
Because each employee is an investment in the company. If the investment pays off, the employee earns money for the business.
When you hire a corporate entertainer,
you are investing in the success of your event.
Just as your company reviews a person's application and checks references before they hire. You should too. Luckily it is a lot easier to hire a corporate entertainer. Their videos and references are much easier to find.
The right corporate entertainment for your business function makes your event memorable. Your guests have more fun, become involved and will share an experience.
Don't Eat Lousy Food!
If you taste tested your caterer and gagged at the offerings, the chance of you hiring them is unlikely. Guests would experience a similar reaction and question your abilities to plan the event.
If your guests were vegans and you served prime rib, you've ruined the meal. It isn't the prime rib's fault. People love prime rib. Unless they are vegans. It is simply the wrong selection for the event.
Don't watch lousy corporate entertainment!
You can't taste test your entertainment, but you can watch them work. Does their video make you laugh? Pay no attention to the laugh track – that is too easy to fake. Does the video make you laugh? If so, there is a good chance your guests will too.
(At least, if they are anything like you … )
Do you understand your guests' entertainment tastes? Hiring a prime rib for a salad crowd results in wasted entertainment. And it isn't the act's fault. Unless they didn't ask the right questions going in.
There are a ton of considerations for every corporate event. Entertainment is an important piece of the puzzle. You need to talk with your corporate entertainer before you hire them to make certain you are both on the same page.
As an event planner, it is important to surround yourself with people you can trust. Those who can examine the details, determine possibilities and offer solutions.
