How to Win in 2026
Want to win in 2026? Here are a few tips to keep in mind:
✅ Follow-up: We always recommend quickly following up with party planners after you send over your initial quote. Sending an email or giving the planner a call to follow up on your quote will go a long way and help you secure more bookings in 2026.
✅ Confirm your bookings. Make your booking dollars count by confirming your bookings on The Bash. Only revenue earned from events booked through The Bash counts toward the award. Events that are booked outside of The Bash and added as verified bookings do not count toward the award. The more booking dollars you earn, the greater your chances are of winning the Rising Star Award in 2026.
✅ Enroll in EventPay. Did you know that 80% of all The Bash events are booked by members enrolled in EventPay? Make it easier for planners to book you by enrolling in online payments.
✅ Collect Reviews. With confirmed bookings on The Bash, your clients can leave reviews for your services. Positive reviews communicate trust, satisfaction, and lead to future bookings!
