Do I Need A Production Company For My Corporate Event?

January 10, 2020 Leave a Comment

When you are planning a new event for your company, you may have many grand plans that you know will make it easier for you to impress your employees, clients, and guests. Plus, you may have planned a special sale event, or you might want to include charities, auctions, and live entertainment. You must look at what a production company can do for you when you want to put on one of these big events. There are a few tips below that will help you make an informed decision and turn over all the hard work to someone else.

Do You Need A Production Company?

You need a production company for a corporate event when the event is too big for you to handle by yourself. You must take stock of the event, write down all the things that need to be done, and contact a production company when you feel you are out of your depth. There is nothing wrong with hiring a production company. You simply need help getting everything done, and you should work with a professional who does this every day.

When Should You Hire A Production Company?

You should hire the production company a few months ahead of the event. Yes, you could hire the production company in a rush because you do not have time to plan the event, but you will have a hard time getting what you want. It makes much more sense to hire a production company well in advance of your event.

The production company can sit down with you to plan the event, and they will explain how they plan to do all the things that you want. If you are have not hired a production company, you are not getting any extra ideas from an outside source that might have a better perspective on the event.

The Pros Of A Production Company?

The production company will plan your event, hire the entertainment, schedule the event, and even market the event. You are allowing the production company to do everything, and you will not need to put in any effort on your own.

The production company knows how to get the best price for all the supplies that you need. The production company knows how to rent the things that you need, and they have contacts in the events industry that will help you get what you need. This means that you can hire live musicians, hire a DJ, and bring in speakers.

You could ask the production company to provide food to your guests, and they will hire the caterer that does everything for you. You are allowed to enjoy the event, and you simply pay for the things that are needed. This also means that you can interact with your employees, guests, and clients at the event.

The Cons Of A Production Company

The production company does cost money. You may not want to spend too much money on the event, and that can be difficult when you are working with a production company that presents you with a massive plan for the event. You may not feel like you can change that plan, and you could spend a lot of money that you do not have on the event. Make sure that you have talked to the production company about your budget before you start.

Plus, you need to pay the production company a consulting fee. While this is standard, you may not want to pay extra money to get someone to plan your event.

Moreover, some event production companies will use all their own people for these events. You may not like some of the options that have been presented to you, and that will make it hard for you to choose an event plan that you like. Plus, you may feel that some of the options are too expensive. You need to find a production company that allows you some input into the event.

What Are You Paying For?

You will pay the consulting fee for the production company, and you will pay for all the things that they need. You need to pay for an open bar if that is needed at the event, and you will pay for the wait staff if you are serving food. Plus, you will pay for anything that was rented to host the event. You must pay for the music, and you will pay the rented space where the event is held.

Conclusion:

The production company that you hire can turn your corporate event into a roaring success, but you must be willing to pay for these events. Also, you are paying a consulting fee to the production company, paying for all the things that were rented, and paying for services like food and music. However, some events are too big for you to plan on your own.
