Conference Module

Phew! Finished.

The Artist module is great*; book a band, send them a contract, set their performance details, sort out their production requirements… It’s all simple and straightforward. However the entire system structure is built upon the premise that there’s one performer on one stage/venue at one time. One contract, one set of production requirements.

However, what happens when you want to book multiple people into a single time/space, such as for a panel discussion or a workshop. When we were approached at the end of last year by one of our lovely clients, The Great Escape, who run a conference during the day and a festival at night (for you American readers, think SXSW), we knew that the existing Artist module wouldn’t cut it, and we were loathe to completely rebuild what was a tried and tested (and bug free) system.

So we’ve finally launched the new Conference module: multiple performers/presenters/people in the same time slot; separate contracts and financial details for all; separate contact information; messaging and reports systems; and it’s very own Scheduler with our clever drag-and-drop scheduling functionality.

And, as with everything else that we do, we’ve made it so that you can configure the system in the way that you want. If you don’t want it, hide it. If you do, great, it comes as a standard part of the package so there’s no additional costs.

And, if all you really want is the conference system, then that’s possible too.

Get in touch if you’d like to be shown around. You can find our contact details over here.
