Great day at the WBEC West Unconventional Women’s Tour today. Boats, corporate folks, wine, food and fun. Thank you for great day of networking and laughter at Newport Beach Harbor.
#storytime I got 99 problems but events ain’t one (Jay-z voice) make sure you have their checks! I can remember a time I worked with a famous blues singer in Chicago. We hired her and my boss forgot to cut her check. You know they made me, low man on the totem pole, tell her. It wasn’t pretty. I never forgot that experience and now I never forget to bring checks with me—just in case!

Here’s a tip! 💡Working with celebrities—you have to be #mindful of what they’re used to having and what your #budget allows. When you get a #rider from a #celeb, make sure you go through everything and let their #management know what you can and cannot provide so their expectations can be managed. #eventplanner #snapproductions #gingercampbell #events #event #partyplanner #eventplanning #party #birthday #eventdecor #eventdesign #love #weddings #eventmanagement #birthdayparty
I know that this will be like a foreign language to some folks, but if you make a mistake at an event—#admit it. This has more to do with having a moral compass than anything else, but we’re all fallible. Sometimes you take direction not in the way people intended and mistakes are made. Don’t play the blame game. At the end of the day, you’re the producer and the buck stops with you. #People will think better of you if you own your mistake instead of passing it around.

Here’s a tip! 💡 Many people hire entertainment, but don’t budget for them to have meals. #WRONG! If you want a great event, you have got to entertain and keep the #entertainment happy. Make sure that you #reserve food for them—even if they have to eat it in a breakout room. They’ll be happy, you’ll get the audience response that you want and your #client will love that their event was fabulous! #musicianproblems #feedme #holistic #leeannsholistichands #blackwomensupportblackwomen #health #healing #healthylifestyle #holistichealing #selfcare #natural #yoga #meditation #organic #vegan #love #nutrition #healthy #plantbased #wellbeing #healthyliving #fitness
Here’s a tip!! 💡 Since our event world has opened up to hybrid events, many event #producers have to learn what it is like to be a #television producer. You have to look at the lighting, backgrounds, distractions (i.e. I was producing a virtual event and someone’s #dog kept running in and out of the frame)🐶. I find that it’s #helpful to send people some basic information on virtual events—like where/how to position themselves in front of the camera, how to find a space that is #uncluttered, and to check their volume. You can suggest a #protip and purchase a ring light so that the lighting will be flattering—there’s nothing worse than recording someone who is in the dark! Consider coming up with a list of these types of things to give to people BEFORE your virtual event!!

Tell me something….🗣
How do you feel about events without an #MC? I don’t really like events without them 🤷🏽♀️ . The purpose of an MC is to keep the show flowing. I even found it distracting watching the #Oscars without a host. Conversely, I think that the MC should not make themselves the #center of attention—it is about the goal of the show. When #Diddy hosted the Billboard awards [that he produced,] I thought he had a little too much screen time…What do you think about that? Leave a comment below!! No host or show host—that, is the question!
