Summary
In this episode, we’re breaking down how to hire event contractors and build the right team for your events. We talk through which roles are typically contracted, how to decide what to outsource versus handle in-house, and where to find great contractors in the first place. We also share the signals that tell us someone will be a strong partner before show day — along with the red flags we’ve learned to take seriously sooner. Get ready to learn how you can use contractors to build out your team (and if you're a contractor, learn what folks hiring look for).
