Site visits are arranged for you to see the venue, this can be in person or virtual subject to your timelines and location

Post Event

Invoice and feedback for the venue

I request the invoice from the venue to process my commission and discuss feedback of the event with both yourself and the venue.

I seek commission from the venue

Standard industry commission is between 8-10% net of VAT on room hire and food & beverage. This is how I get paid to give you (the client) a free service. This can sometimes be called a ‘finders fee’.

Note: Should the event not go ahead, an admin charge is then put in place to cover the costs of the above. This is discussed and agreed upon in the initial zoom call.

HOW IT WORKSEnsuring your time is used efficiently.

With many types of tools to facilitate venue finding, it can be time-consuming finding the right solution for your event, so I’ve outlined how I save you time and money

Saving event buyers hours of time to source a venue from my extensive network.

Collaborating proposals to meet a specific brief and budget.

I organise site visits, and attend where possible

I negotiate venue contracts

I have become a 'go to' person in the London network in a post covid events world

The relationships I have with hotels and venues are second to none and often commented on, making me a ‘go to person’ in the industry

As an independent venue finder, I research, negotiate and contract venues for conferences, meetings, incentives or events taking place in luxury venues in London & surrounding areas

Using my 25+ years of London event experience I have numerous recommendations due to the high level of service and attention to detail I love to provide

How Much Is It? This service is free to the client for all events that are contracted and go ahead
