A few questions, answered
What kinds of events can you help with?
Chris Ford Events supports businesses, community organisations and local events across the Eastern Bay of Plenty. Tell Chris your idea, location and audience so you can work out the right scope together.
Do I need full event management?
No. You can hand over the whole project or bring Chris in for the parts where you need extra support.
Can you help with an event already underway?
Yes. Support can include planning, suppliers, venue coordination, registrations, promotion, setup and pack-down. Start with where you are at and what needs attention.
Can you help just on event day?
Event-day coordination is one of the support options. Share the date, venue and help you need so availability and responsibilities can be agreed.
