Frequently Asked Questions
What profit margin should event planners target?
15–30% net on each event after all vendor costs, staff, and your own hours at a real rate. Below 15%, one overtime bill or vendor overage erases the event's profit.
Why do event businesses lose money while looking busy?
Unbilled scope creep — extra revisions, guest-count changes, day-of extras. Contracts with defined inclusions and priced change orders are the fix, exactly like construction.
How do I track profitability per event?
Log every hour and cost against the event, close the books within a week, and compare against the quote. Three events of data will show exactly where your estimates leak.
