streamlined our booking process.  Results
of the new scheduling procedure increased our booking appointments from only booking 1 month out, to booking every 4 to 6 weeks for up to 1 to 2 years out.  I developed a new advanced payment option, where the clients can pre-pay onto a debit style card. They can choose the set amount of funds. With this option they get a
percentage discount taken off for booking the year. With these cards
they can reload anytime, and with this creative plan it drastically increased the predictability of the income variables.           Skills      Event Management and Promotion   Leader  Strong Negotiation Skills  Team Building and Team Leadership
