02The problemSHEET 2 OF 6

There's no simple way to find, brief or book event AV.

The AV industry has no central infrastructure. Planners find suppliers through personal contacts and brief them without the tools or benchmarks they need. The quotes that come back can't properly be evaluated or compared.

Avarice fixes the whole process, from finding the right supplier and briefing them properly through to comparing quotes with real market context and booking the right kit for the job.

2.1

Finding the right supplier takes weeksWith no directory and no way to match, you're left asking around and hoping for a recommendation.

2.2

There's no tool built for briefing suppliers properlyWithout templates or a guided process there's no way to know what to ask for so suppliers get a vague request and have to guess.

2.3

Quotes are hard to compareEvery quote comes back in a different format with different line items and nothing to benchmark it against. There's no way to tell whether the price is fair.

2.4

Changes after booking turn into a messWith no clear process and no paper trail, a late change means chasing emails and hoping everyone agrees on the new price.

Subject: AV for our gala?

Hi, we've got a gala for around 300 people at the Grand Ballroom on 14 Nov. We'll need a stage, some lights, a couple of screens and mics for the speeches. Can you send a quote over when you get a sec?

Thanks!
