Negotiating Event Contracts and Agreements

The process leading up to signing a venue contract involves many steps, the most important of which include developing a comprehensive request for proposal (RFP), evaluating vendors, and preparing a negotiation plan. This course addresses how to develop an RFP based on event type and venue; review differences between hotels, convention centers, and other special event spaces; rank priorities; understand the fine print (i.e., hidden fees or charges); and get the most out of your budget.
