Congratulations on receiving your first lead on The Bash! Here are 5 tips to help you land that first booking...
1. Respond Quickly
Did you know that nearly 1 in 3 bookings goes to the first person who submits a quote? If you're interested in the specific request, don't wait—respond as soon as possible. Utilize saved responses and make sure you're opted in to text alerts.
2. Make a Strong First Impression
You only get one chance to make a great first impression. Send a professional, personalized message to the client, letting them know you would love to work their event. It's important that you tailor your message to their specific needs and address any questions they’ve mentioned.
3. Clearly Communicate Your Price Quote
Be clear and transparent with your price quote. Make sure the client understands exactly what’s included in your offer.
4. Follow-Up
After sending your quote, we highly recommend following up within 24-48 hours. Use a phone call, email, text message, or even The Bash messaging system to check in, review your quote, and answer any remaining questions. Remember, as soon as you submit a quote, the client's contact information will be populated on the lead.
5. Sell Yourself
Emphasize your strengths, highlight any notable past experiences, share client testimonials, and include any media (photos & videos) that demonstrate your work and what it would be like to hire you.

Remember, if you aren't available for the event, or simply not interested, you should send a polite "no" response. It's a common courtesy to let the client know they should move on to other vendors.
