Product Description

Celebrate All the Way to the Bank

Weddings, parades, fairs, graduations, conferences, political rallies, fashion shows-what do they have in common? Everyone would rather have someone else plan and conduct them! That someone else can be you if you're a professional event planner who knows how to develop a theme, find a location, arrange entertainment, plan transportation and do the myriad things needed to pull an event off successfully.

Learn everything you need to know to get started in one of today's hottest-and most lucrative-businesses:

  • How to stay abreast of the newest entertainment, food and decoration options
  • Hot new industry trends, from environmentally friendly parties to extravagant first birthday parties and more
  • How to build a loyal customer base for large and small events
  • Targeted strategies for planning commercial events, political events, civic events, social events and more
  • The latest information on the use of technology in event planning

With gross profits averaging 30 to 40 percent, you can easily earn six figures a year planning and conducting events-and have a blast in the process. If you're looking for a flexible schedule, a wide variety of responsibilities and new adventures every week, event planning is the business for you.

Excellent combination of price, contents and length .At reasonable price, in a relatively short time (137 pages), you will obtain pure essence of event planning. If you are beginner in this field, it is very important to read carefully each word and not to hesitate to follow it blindly.
Based on general managing rules that will help you to establish your new event planning business on good basis and to keep it healthy, the book is upgraded with specific event planning principles, details and even tools that will make of you one serious , professional and responsible entrepreneur in the field of event planning. Strongly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best resource, Jan 15 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Start Your Own Event Planning Business (Paperback)
This book is the best if you're interested in starting your own event planning business or even if you're just starting a business. It spells everything out that you need to do and it gives you websites and addresses and cost estimations and sample worksheets. Without this book I think it would have been so daunting to even think about taking on this task. BUY THIS BOOK, BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT. I think it's very worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Really great book!, Dec 30 2010
By KayDi's Events - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Start Your Own Event Planning Business (Paperback)
This book is filled with great advice, references and resources. I've taken a course in Wedding & Event Planning as well as serviced many weddings, birthdays and other parties. But this book still had great tips that I'd never hear of before.
