When booking an artist there is no better tool available to a school than booking agencies and entertainment agents. Booking artists and speakers requires a great deal of experience and expertise, which is why it is so important to have the correct assistance when proceeding into the contracting, negotiation and offer phases that coincide with booking an artist.
The process of booking artists and speakers starts with an inquiry which gives the HBCU Booking representatives an idea of your event style, budget, dates, and other key info which entertainment agents need to find you the best artist for your event booking. Next, an official offer will be discussed to present to the artists. Upon the artist's acceptance of the official booking offer, contracts are issued and deposits are scheduled for payment. While the steps appear simple, the details within each step can be very complex and must be handled with the most delicate care to insure that all sides of the negotiation are happy, respected, and properly represented.
As we all know from watching the media and internet, artists can be very difficult to access and deal with. That is why, when booking an artist for your event, it is crucial to have the correct representation booking team to ensure that you get the best deal possible with the most exciting, and most amenable talent.
