Why
should we choose Elite to organise our next event?
We always provide a quality product that is unique with a lasting
and memorable experience. All our products and sub-contractors
are quality audited and only those that meet our expectations
are selected. Please feel free to let us know if you have any
specific request or a type of package we currently do not offer.
Why
should we allocate a hospitality budget?
It is important to invite the people who will help achieve your
company's objectives and goals for the day. The main purpose of
the day may be to reward and motivate employees or clients, win
new contracts, be referred to new clients or retain existing ones.
Your objective for the day may be a Public Relation excise, to
lift the profile of the company, employees to meet the new CEO
or receive internal or external publicity from the media.
What
advantages are they're going through an event management company?
Why risk you event being a flop when you could let the experts
take care of your Event Management needs. We have selected suppliers,
venues, caterers, entertainers etc that we can trust and know
that they wont let you down.
With
most of the venues and suppliers we have negotiated a rate which
will be cheaper than the general public is able to get. So why
waste your staffs valuable time in trying to organise something
that we would be able to do in half of the time?
We
are also often able to purchase hard to get tickets or tickets
to sold out events such as the AFL Footy sow Tickets.
We can also organise promotional material, corporate signage,
gifts and any other requirements you may have. We also provide
event co-ordinators and hosts to meet and greet and assist with
any requirements you may have. So sit back mingle with your guest
and enjoy yourself.
Should we appoint an Event Co-ordinator
at our company?
Yes, they become a point of call with us, being the Event Management
Company. This way there is regular communication, with a better
understanding of the companies goals and objectives. It is important
to understand the type of clients or staff attending, their needs,
names and position within the company, or what invested interest
certain clients have in your company.
What
does the Event Co-ordinator do?
Your company's event Co-ordinator, will liase between the invited
guest and us. It is important to keep a database on who has been
invited, company name, e-mail address, telephone numbers, mailing
address, position, name of partner if attending and other information
you may feel necessary for your own records. We might also require
this information to add to our door lists to avoid any unwelcome
guest.
The
event co-ordinator is to also have the authority to strategically
allocate funds to certain events or incentives with an approved
expenditure limit.
It
is important that your event co-ordinator is in attendance on
the day of the event. Make sure they arrive on time and meet guest
who may be arriving on their own. It is a good idea to provide
transport to and from the event, as it can be intimidating and
uncomfortable for guest to arrive to a function unaccompanied.
It is recommended your company have several responsible hosts
to network, strengthen client relationships and socialise with
guests to make them feel welcomed.
Why
is there a 3.0% surcharge when using my credit card?
As our prices are very competitive we cannot afford to cover the
credit card merchant fee. Other payment options, which are fee
free is direct deposit, cheque, money order, net banking or cash.
Will
there be anybody representative from Elite Event Management Group
in attendance at our event?
We will always have a representative in attendance at your event,
except in the case of some ticket incentives products or other
special events that do not require a representative. It is important
to follow up with them after your event has concluded. At some
events, promotion staff are used who are not suitable to discuss
the particulars of your event.
How
far in advance do we have to book?
It really depends on the event or the venue. Some events have
very limited seats available which may require six months notice,
where a day tour may be able to be arranged with only a few days
notice. It is best to book as soon as you have an idea of your
numbers.
Why
do we have to purchase a minimum of 50+ tickets for some events?
There is very little or even no mark up with tickets to events
and attractions. A minimum of 50 tickets is needed to cover our
administration, postal and handling costs. We are also often able
to negotiate with the promoters for a more competitive rate to
offer the best possible price.
Can
we purchase general admission tickets to events through Elite
Event Management Group?
Most events we offer are generally corporate facilities, but for
some events we do offer general admission tickets. (Refer to the
individual sections of the web site for further details)
Are
we able to have a marque or super box to our selves or do we have
to share it?
Depending on the event, budget and your numbers. You may be able
to exclusively hire out the facilities, alternatively you may
be able to share with another corporate group.
Are
we required to check, time, date, venue and other requirements
prior to attending the event?
Yes, it is very important to check detail with Elite Event Mgt
Group, your group organiser, or the promoter's official web site
prior to attending.
