Turn Your Negotiating Skills Into Profits!

Regardless of the state of the economy, people always want to be entertained. So, there’s always work to be done and money to be made. You can become a successful booking/talent agent with very little start up costs. In addition, there are no educational requirements and no major office equipment or supplies to buy. Basically, all you need to begin is a phone, and a fax machine or an email account -- work at home from your kitchen table. The customer and talent base is huge and your earnings can be equally as large.

Most importantly, if you book a show, you get paid. Book a show every day and you can get paid every day. Your risks are minimal because you are simply the liaison between the talent and the buyer. However, your commission is based on the cost of the talent. For example, many of the national recording artists’ contracts start at a minimum of $10,000. With a 10% commission you will earn $1,000 in cash every time you book a show or appearance. And that’s the low end of what you can actually earn as an agent booking national recording artists.

If you can sell, prioritize and organize your work load, effectively communicate with a variety of personalities, work hours at a time on the phone, keep track of large sums of money, meet deadlines and help your clients succeed, this could be the career for you.

This career involves booking singers, poets, models, comedians, actors, rappers, DJs, TV personalities, speakers and more for concerts, fairs, festivals, parties, conventions, weddings and many other exciting events.
