Question

Do you know a good site where I can find and hire sales pros who can help with booking me for high end special events. I am a special event entertainer adn an easy sell. See my site: http://mylifeandart.typepad.com/

I work with a number of agencies, agents, but I need more bookings.

I am based in Miami, work nationwide.

I offer to pay 20% industry standard commission to start. Willing to pay bonuses for good work.

I tried Craigs list. I get a lot of interest but most people are not qualified. Need some real pros who either have connections or can learn how to make them. I can teach.

Answer 1

Word of mouth is the best way to go. Check in your city and find out who books entertainment for the best bars and clubs. Interview them, find out what their capabilities are and also, a 20% cut for commision is a bit high. Many professionals are paid 15%. You could say that an additional 5% might be added for exceptional work.

Best of luck to you.
