Can The Buyer Picture The Show And Advance It?
A self-audit for buyer-facing proof, show formats, stage plot, input list, rider, contact process, promotion, and professional follow-up.
Ready Inputs
What Good Enough Looks Like
The goal is not perfection. It is accurate, current, legally usable material that supports the next professional decision.
Readiness Checklist
- One buyer-ready EPK or booking link
- Strong current live video
- Show-length and configuration options
- Accurate stage plot and input list
- Technical/hospitality rider scaled to the act
- Booking contact and response process
- Travel radius and date reality
- Venue/event history
- Approved promotional assets
Red Flags
- Only studio music is available
- Technical document does not match the current lineup
- Buyer must request basic show information
- No one answers booking email quickly
- Every event receives the same generic pitch
- Hospitality request exceeds the act’s market reality
- No local promotion plan
Minimum Useful Package
Do Not Hide The Missing Pieces
Mark each item complete, usable with limits, missing, or not applicable. OTA can scope around honest gaps much better than surprise gaps.
Minimum Useful Package
- Proof
- Format
- Production
- History
- Contact
- Travel reality
- Promotion support
Next move: Use the Venue-Ready Booking Kit when the act is strong but the buyer path and operating documents need professional work.
