Before hiring - Get your list together
Feb 2004
 

Hire companies can be much more efficient if the customer has a few simple details organized before they pick up the phone. Michael Wickow from McLean Audio suggests that it would be helpful if you have the following info ready:

  • Who are you/ who do you represent?
  • Your contact phone/fax/email.
  • What is the event?
  • Where and when?
  • What performers, talent is on the show? Do they have any special requirements?
  • What time is the start and finish of the show, rehearsal/sound check times, etc?
  • When can we set up? Pack down?
  • What do you want to accomplish?
  • How big is the expected audience?
  • Is there a stage - how big?
  • Is there power?
  • What is access like to the venue?
  • What is your budget?
  • Do have or require a/v, staging, lighting?

As Michael said, no doubt there are many more questions that need to be asked, but these are a good starting point.
