FAQS
-
Why wouldn't I just hire a 3rd party company?Good question! For starters, the cost of a “free” 3rd party planner is much greater than you think. Having worked for the major hotel brands, commissionable booking inquiries are marked at a higher rate than non-commisionable bookings within their group range. With extensive experience on the hotel & resort side of contracting, having facilitated over $100 million in group business annually, We know exactly what the big brands want to give you and what they do not want you to have in terms of concessions, rates, and legal levels of risk and financial liability. "Our aim is to replace unreliable and inexperienced 3rd party freelancers, as well as expensive management firms, with a flat monthly subscription solution that delivers contract negotiations and site selections with outstanding results. With CH, clients will experience a new level of quality and satisfaction in the site selection and contract negotiation process." With the monthly plan, you can pause and resume your subscription as often as you need to ensure you're only paying your event designer when you have work available for them.
-
Is there a limit to how many requests I can have?Once subscribed, you're able to add as many event design requests to your queue as you'd like. We work on 2 event requests at a time, and they will be delivered one by one.
-
How fast will I receive my event designs?On average, most requests are completed in just a few days. However, more complex requests can take longer.
-
How does the pause feature work?We understand you may not have enough event design work to fill up entire month. Perhaps you only have one or two event design requests at the moment. That's where pausing your subscription comes in handy. Billing cycles are based on 31 day period. Let's say you sign up and use the service for 21 days, and then decide to pause your subscription. This means that the billing cycle will be paused and you'll have 10 days of service remaining to be used anytime in the future.
-
How do I request event designs?CH offers a ton of flexibility in how you request event designs. Some common ways clients request designs is directly via email, sharing Google docs, Teams, or Slack connections. Basically, if it can be linked to or shared out, it's fair game.
-
What if I don't like the event design?No worries! We'll continue to revise the design until you're 100% satisfied.
-
What if I only have a single request?That's fine. You can pause your subscription when finished and return when you have additional design needs. There's no need to let the remainder of your subscription go to waste.
-
Are there any refunds if I don't like the service?Due to the high quality nature of the work, there will be no refunds issued.
