Q&A

What distinguishes ‘Goldcrest Events’ from other Events Agencies?

We want to add value to each and every event. We are a small team of event professionals providing clients with advice and a truly consultative approach. The combination of our considerable experience, our network of event suppliers and our established database of venues, assists us providing our clients with an efficient service which achieves savings considerable savings. Our aim is to build long-standing relationships and partnerships with our clients, achieving a true understanding of their company and their way of doing business. We aim to be an integral part of their team, whether we are a known entity within their business or a secret resource.

And how is it that the Goldcrest Events Venue Finding Service is offered as a complimentary service to corporate clients?

We are able to offer a FREE venue finding service due to the fact that approved and established UK agencies are paid a commission for business placed at most hotels and venues, as a marketing fee. This commission is an agreed industry standard.

This commission does NOT inflate the rates that you pay, it is included and therefore there is great value in our service to clients even though you do not have to pay a bill! We recently analysed that we achieve a 38% average saving for our clients on their events.

What do you feel is the most important benefit of the service that Goldcrest Events offers to clients?

Simple - Efficiency and communication. 

Our clients are all busy professionals who require an efficient service. We work towards each client's deadlines and communicate throughout the process should there be any delays in securing provisional bookings. In some cases we may need to discuss the option of widening the search if the area that we are researching is proving to be a challenge for a particular reason.

Is a Hotel Background important in events?

Absolutely, I feel that a hotel background is essential in venue finding and event planning as it gives an in-depth understanding of how hotels and venues operate.

How does the Goldcrest Events Venue Finding Service work?

We start by talking with you over the phone, or in person at your offices to establish your requirements and the vision for your event. We discuss what is important to you in a venue and for your event overall, where your event has taken place before and where your delegates and guests are traveling from. We then consider the most convenient potential locations, your preferred style of venue, the event agenda and other contributing factors which will determine the most suitable locations and venues for us to research. There is a lot to be considered at the very start of the event planning process, as making a well-informed start guarantees a seamless venue finding process.

How does Goldcrest Events Events achieve savings for clients?

We have been working with an impressive collection of national and global corporations for over 11 years. Goldcrest Events is well known and respected in the international Meetings Incentives Conference & Exhibitions (MICE) Industry. Our buying power is due to our considerable experience and the quality of bookings that we place at venues and hotels on behalf of our portfolio of clients.

Besides venue finding, which other services can you offer to your clients?

Goldcrest Events has a very close partnership with a Travel Management Company and also a Team Building Company, that offer extremely competitive rates for our clients.

We offer a variety of services including assistance with event planning, design, production and entertainment. We have established relationships with suppliers across the UK and worldwide who work as our extended team and provide our clients with all of the services and expertise that are required to achieve a successful event.
