Clear scope. Clear fees.
A tailored
pricing model.
Every association and every event is different. We do not apply a one-size-fits-all management fee.
Our charges reflect:
- The scope of services required
- The scale and complexity of the event
- The level of responsibility we assume
Predictable for your association.
Proportionate to the work.
Aligned with your event’s success.
Depending on the services selected, fees may be structured as:
- Fixed management fee
- For clearly defined services or complete event management, agreed in advance based on the anticipated workload and complexity.
- Project or function fee
- For individual areas such as program management, registration, marketing, venue management or onsite production.
- Per-attendee or transaction fee
- Where the workload naturally varies with registration or attendee numbers.
- Commission or performance-based fee
- Particularly for sponsorship and exhibition sales, where fees can be linked to revenue generated.
- Day rates
- For onsite event management, specialist support or additional services outside the agreed scope.
- Pass-through costs
- Third-party expenses such as venues, AV, technology, printing, travel and temporary staff are charged separately and agreed with the association.
A combination that fits.
For larger partnerships, we can combine these approaches—for example, a base management fee plus variable fees linked to attendance, sponsorship revenue or additional services.
