How do I get a discount?

How do I get a discount?

It’s a tough economy and everyone is on a budget.  The belts are tightened for private and personal events and it’s a very common question.   There are a few things that you can do to reduce your bill.

#1 Pick up the equipment from our office in Santa Clara during normal business hours of Monday-Friday 9a-5p.  Gas and Labor are expensive and by picking up the equipment reduces this for us and we have greater price flexibility.

#2 If you need delivery, setup and teardown, make sure it’s in our normal business hours of Monday-Friday 9a-5p.  Labor after hours on the evenings and weekend generally have to be brought in just for your order which makes it more expensive.

#3 Pay by Check or Cash in advance.  Those credit card processing fees are a killer and reduce our ability to discount for you.

#4 Book Multiple Events at the same time.  A loyal customer is a rewarded customer.

#5 Let us handle all aspects of audio visual for your meeting.  When we have all the pieces(audio, video, data, lighting, staging) we are familiar with, the meeting is easier for us to produce for you.  Easier = cheaper

#6 More detail the better.  Again easier = cheaper.  The better we can plan for your meeting, the more efficient we can be.

In addition to these tips, if you have a non profit organization such as a school, church,  or an organization that benefits sick or disadvantaged individuals please let us know and we’ll see what we can do.
