Billing tips for event planners.
Bill in installments
Spread your fee across booking, the midpoint and the final weeks. It matches cash to the work, which peaks right before the event.
Avoid fronting vendor costs
Have clients pay vendors directly when possible, or collect the funds before you place deposits yourself.
Price scope changes as add-ons
A growing guest list, a second venue or an added rehearsal dinner is real work. Bill it rather than absorbing it.
