Are you looking to tour in Thailand? Bartend in Belgium? Sing in Singapore? If you are looking to get your event business out to an international audience, Gig Heaven is here to help. In this blog, we’ll show you how Gig Heaven<\/a> works for event suppliers… <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Gig Heaven?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Simply put, Gig Heaven is an international entertainment directory. In practice, this means that our website is designed to help global clients find the perfect entertainers, suppliers, and related services from across the globe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a supplier, building yourself a listing on gigheaven.com is simple to do and enables potential clients to read your reviews, listen to audio, watch videos and read biographical information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our mission is to make it as easy as possible for clients to find trusted industry professionals for their events and help successful domestic enterprises become incredible global businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much does it cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For a listing? Absolutely nothing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an experienced event supplier, you will probably know that it is standard practice to ask clients for a deposit up front to secure a booking date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This deposit protects both you and your client, by guaranteeing you won’t take another booking and that they can’t cancel without a financial penalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once your booking is agreed, your client will be asked to pay a 10% deposit to secure the date. This is retained as our service fee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no additional charge from Gig Heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You literally have nothing to lose!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does Gig Heaven work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Build yourself a profile.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gig Heaven lists thousands of suppliers worldwide. From musicians to magicians and bartenders to breakdancers – anything you would need to hire for an event anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you have signed up, you will quickly be guided through building your listing to promote your services. You can add audio, video, prices, reviews, promotional photography and everything else you will need to make your listing attractive to new clients and represent your business well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Wait for your potential client to get in touch.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

During this time, you should publicise your Gig Heaven profile by sharing it around on social media and generally promoting it as much as you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will receive an email (and optional SMS alert) when you receive a new enquiry through your listing which will direct you to the messaging system on Gig Heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Agree to the booking.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once a client reaches out to you, you can negotiate with them directly and discuss any requirements they have using the messaging system or you can arrange an audio\/video meeting if you’d prefer to discuss in person.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you are happy to proceed, you can issue the client a booking contract via Gig Heaven – click “Manage Booking” in your account to set up a new contract.\u00a0You will be able to specify exactly when and how the customer should pay your fees and add any extra terms & conditions you want included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Step 4:  The contract is signed, and your deposit is paid.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once the client digitally signs the booking contract on Gig Heaven, they’ll be asked to pay the 10% deposit to secure the date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be advised; the booking is not confirmed until the deposit is paid by the client. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will be notified the second the deposit is paid, then direct contact details will be exchanged in the Gig Heaven messaging system automatically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Step 5: The event happens!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The day has arrived!\u00a0You contribute your wonderful services, and your client’s event is a huge success!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\n

In just five easy steps, you can get your event business out to an international audience. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
