Tip #13
Oh, oh— it’s almost Thanksgiving, then the rollercoaster runs full speed and non-stop into Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, and a bunch of other celebratory occasions— then New Year strikes at Midnight.
Have you explored your entertainment options and settled on the best match for you party?
What?
No?
Then now is the time to get serious. There is still time to save the day and make a terrific impression, so don’t fret.
The process is the same as the steps below in this blog, but sped up and truncated. Don’t rush into a mistake, do your homework, and don’t “settle.” Now more than ever you’ll tell the pros from the rest by their willingness to help you out and save the day.
Yes, many of the topflight performers are booked, and may have been for months, but there are cancelations, changes in plans, or a date that can be tucked in here and there. The lesser entertainers may have an open schedule… but there’s a reason for that.
Get on the phone -don’t email- and be forthright about what you need and when you need it, then close your mouth and see what comes out of your perspective performer's mouth. It will tell you a lot, a whole lot, and speed along your ultimate decision.
Last minute shopping? You bet. However that doesn’t mean your stocking won’t be full when your event begins!
Happy Holidays, and entertaining ones as well!
See you next year?
