Develop your entrepreneurial skills Just like every other business, event planning requires entrepreneurial skills in order to create long-term happy customers. To succeed as an event planner, you need people skill, sales skill, accounting skill, negotiation skill, cooking skill, communication skill, etc. Mind you that this business involves dealing with humans on regular intervals. You must also note that you don’t need to possess all these skills, as long as you are willing to partner with those who possess these skills. Set a goal To become a successful event planner, you must be a goal getter. You must think big and aspire to improve the caliber of your clients. How to Become an Event Planner – Starting an Event Planning Business Conduct feasibility study Choose your market Why do you want to start an event planning business? Why do you want to become an event planner? What aspect of event planning do you intend to focus on? Do you want to become a generalist or specialist? The key to successfully wading in the event management business is knowing what type of service to offer because that will also determine the image you may want to project, the clients you want to sign up with and more importantly, the price you want to ask. Knowing how to become an event planner is also about knowing your direction. Will you specialize in weddings or corporate events? These are some of the questions you need to answer. You cannot offer specialized event planning style to clients looking for generalist approach because you are on a different market bracket. Specialists tend to get more lucrative deals because of their forte but as they are also more expensive, it leaves generalists with more clients to tend to. Choose your clientele Knowing your clientele also means knowing the occasions you can handle with eyes closed. Will you focus on corporate clients or individual clients? For marketing purposes, it is not enough to be certain with the services you want to offer. Rather, a research is needed on the clients who often avail such services and what market section has the most potential. From there, you can develop your business and may even stumble upon an untapped area. Write a business plan When it comes to starting a business and growing it, it is a known fact that having a business plan can be an added advantage to you; regardless of the business you are starting. After doing your feasibility, it is advisable you write an event planning business plan. This will help you stay focused on your market and further help you adapt to change fast. Assemble the needed manpower and equipment Event planning is often a one- man venture. Everything else is contracted with third-party organizers and providers. However, if you are aiming an extra mile in the business, you also need to have your own manpower and equipment. In the long run, you can save more from these investments than continually renting and cutting the contract with other businesses. For a start-up, it is not necessary to spend on this. As you expand, you also need to think in advance and in a more competitive way. Knowing how to become an event planner is a business game that requires intelligence; so it is best partnered with tangible investments. Apply for small business insurance Another important factor on how to start an event planning business is to get insurance as this will secure your business. You can know more about getting the right insurance on this industry by checking out the website of the NASEP or the National Alliance of Special Event Planners website. Develop a marketing plan Having a marketing plan for your business is also a vital part when starting an event planning service. Know strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of your business. Your marketing plan should recognize your strengths and then come up with a detailed plan to address weaknesses, opportunities and threats. You need to know how you can outsmart and outperform your rivals and this marketing plan shall serve as your guide. Be a good marketer and salesperson How can you represent clients if you cannot present yourself in a professional way? Knowing how to become an event planner also entails projecting yourself as a leader in the industry. Your portfolio should not only contain impressive clients but should be presented in an impressive format as well. Hire a good web developer and spread your online presence as more clients look in the internet for possible event managers. Be a networker – Establish connections Many established event planners consider their network and contacts as their secret weapon to winning a deal. Who are the manpower service providers? The catering services, pastry chef, photographers and videographers; even the venue and other tit bits are responsibilities of event planners. Having a brilliant concept will not leave the clients gaping with awe if you do not know where to pull all your materials and people. Do you still want to become an event planner? Then know your contacts. Create an event planning website Creating yourself a website is also an important aspect when starting an event planning service . The internet is the best way to promote your business as millions of people go online these days. Perform internet marketing strategies such as search engine optimization, email list-building or link- building for people to see your website. Get certified No, there is no need to be a licensed event planner or finish an event planning course. This only means that you should have certifications from recognized bodies and organizations of event managers and planners; and become a Certified Special Events Professional. However, you can work at home after getting a certification. You can operate without any employees or an office because all you need are clients. You can get these clients on the internet. It is an advantage if clients find out that you took the extra mile in learning new things in the business. For them, this means you can offer more and something better that your competitors do not have. As a final note, the capacity to earn in event planning profession is only limited by how far you can see yourself in the business. Do not strive just to know how to become an event planner, but try to be the leader in the field . |

How to Start a Small Business with No Money 1. Develop a good business idea The first step to starting a business without money is to develop a good business idea. Your proposed business idea must satisfy a need or solve a problem. Your idea must be good enough to arouse the interest of anyone who hears a pitch of it. 2. Have a good business plan Even though you have no money to start a business, write a business plan. It might sound crazy but you are only preparing yourself to take advantage of any opportunity that comes your way. Also, writing a business plan will prove to investors that you are a serious entrepreneur that knows his/ her onions. 3. What do you bring to the table? Okay, I know you are reading this now because you lack the capital to finance your business idea but I will bet that you have something of value inside of you. What business skills do you bring to the table since you don’t have money? This will be a question most investors will want an answer to. Take for instance you developed a good business idea with respect to the tech industry but you don’t have the money to pursue the opportunity, you can come to the table with your technical skills. Mark Zuckerberg did the same thing. Aside technical skills, you can also come to the table with your experience from a respected field. Skills such as sales skill, accounting skill, business management skill can also be brought to the table. 4. Find a business partner with cash This is self explanatory. If you don’t have the cash to start a business, then find a partner who does. 5. Start a service based business You can also start a service based business since it requires little or no startup capital. But you will definitely have to invest time equity to get things going. A little bit of creativity, marketing and sales skills will also be needed to give your business a head start. 6. Start a home based business When I hear people giving lame excuses about their inability to start a business due to lack of capital, I boil inside of me. I have seen people start businesses right from their home and grow from there. Julie Aigner Clark is a good example of this. I have seen people borrow $50 or less from family or friends and launch themselves into tremendous wealth through network marketing. I have seen young internet enthusiasts start a business from a friend’s computer or a public connection (cyber cafe). So I don’t think you have any excuse for not starting a business; even if you have no money. 7. Bootstrap your way to success Lastly, you can bootstrap your startup by operating on a lean budget. Bootstrap financing is an alternative for those who are finding it difficult to raise funds for their business. Bootstrapping financing is simply the art of running a business on internally generated funds which are often limited. It involves the tactical deployment of resources while giving little room for waste. Effectiveness and efficiency are two watchwords in the game of bootstrapping. As a final note, I want you to know that there will never be a situation where you will be provided with excessive capital to start a business. You just have to learn to run with what you’ve got. Don’t sit on your ideas simply because you have no money; start with what you have. Even if all you’ve got is an idea and your enthusiasm; start with it. Where there is a will, there will surely be a way. I leave you with these additional tips for starting a business without money. Additional tips on how to start a small business with no money 8. Obtain a bank loan 9. Apply for a government grant 10. Raise money from crowd sourcing websites 11. Source money from Family and friends How to Raise Startup Seed Capital from Family and Friends 12. Try raising capital from investors VC Funding: How to Raise Capital from Venture Capitalists 13. Take your idea to institutions that support entrepreneurship (NGOs) 14. Participate in entrepreneurship competitions |
