Susan Boyle’s Booking Fee Stuns Event Planners

Fees quoted by artist management companies to corporate event planners are on the rise in spite of the recession. The Telegraph reports today that a short set by Susan Boyle will cost in the region of £100,000 plus VAT. However, artist management companies are notoriously cagey when dealing with enquiries from individuals or groups they have not come across before. It is a common tactic for them to start with an astronomical quote; as this helps them to determine whether or not they are dealing with an experienced booker.

Here at E3 Artists we have forged a close link with Industry (the artist management company quoted in the Telegraph article) and many of the Britain’s Got Talent acts. We’re pretty confident we could have negotiated a much better deal for booking Susan than the one quoted above. As a dedicated entertainment booking agency, we book regularly on behalf of many of our major corporate clients. This gives us the leverage to negotiate lower prices.

    Hello,

    This is Jeanne de Mascarel from an event agency Emotion, which has been present in Asia since 2002 and China since 2004 (three offices in Shanghai, Beijing, and HK)

    You can find references of our work by visiting our website http://www.emotion.asia

    We produce a private corporate party in China on December (The date is not already done) for one of our client.

    At this occasion, we would like to have a singing performance for later the night to bring the atmosphere to the event.

    I wanted to inquire whether it would be possible for Susan Boyle, as a special guest, to come and perform (around 3 songs) for this great occasion and what would be her availability and the conditions (financial terms etc.)

    We need first an approximately quotation of this performance.

    Thank you very much.

    In the meantime I send you my regards and look forward to read your kind answer.
