Event Planning Business: Key Questions and Answers

1. What types of events do you plan to specialize in first, and why those?

I am planning to start with smaller events like birthdays, community gatherings, and corporate meetings. These are common in Terrace and will help me gain experience and build strong relationships in the community before moving on to larger events.

2. How will you promote your events to reach both new and returning clients?

I will promote my business through social media, local ads, and by staying active in community events. I also want to create a simple website that shows photos of my past events and client testimonials — that way, people can see my work and trust my service.

3. What partnerships or collaborations do you plan to build with local venues or vendors?

I would love to work closely with local venues, caterers, photographers, and decorators. Building these partnerships will make it easier to offer complete event packages and ensure everything runs smoothly for my clients. It’s also a great way to support other small businesses in Terrace.

4. How will you manage timing and coordination when multiple events happen close together?

Good organization will be key. I will use event planning software and detailed checklists to stay on top of each project. If things get busy, I plan to bring in part-time help so that every event still gets the attention it deserves.

5. What makes your event experience unique compared to others in Terrace?

I think what sets me apart is my personal touch. I really take the time to understand what my clients want and turn their ideas into something special. My focus is on creativity, detail, and making sure everyone enjoys the experience without stress.

6. How do you plan to handle unexpected challenges during an event, like delays or technical issues?

Things don’t always go as planned, so I always try to stay calm and think fast. I’ll keep backup equipment and contact lists handy so I can quickly fix any issues. My goal is to make sure guests never notice the problem — just the success of the event.

7. Who do you see as your main customers, and what makes you confident they’ll choose your service?

My main customers will probably be local families, small businesses, and community groups. Terrace is a supportive place, and people here appreciate good service and honesty. I think my friendly approach, local knowledge, and fair prices will make them feel comfortable working with me.

8. After an event, how will you get feedback from clients to improve future ones?

After every event, I will reach out personally — maybe through a short survey or quick call — to ask how everything went. I really value honest feedback because it helps me grow and make future events even better.
