It features Lauren Bateman discussing the financial aspects of performing at large events versus smaller, more intimate events, highlighting the cost differences and profitability potential.
Just understand, if you're doing events, like, yeah, it looks great. It's really awesome to be on stage. I love being on stage and performing and doing all that stuff. But understand you're probably not going to make a lot of money off of doing events. Big events with stages. I mean, that stuff costs a lot of money. It costs us $21,000 just for the AV team and the stage to be set up. That's why if you do more intimate events, you can actually make money off of intimate events. Fifteen people, a dozen people in a small room. You charge them $1,000 a piece. Your overhead is very minimal. Other than you bring in a camera person to come in, film, take some photos, your overhead is much smaller, so you'll be more likely to make it profitable.
