<p>If you're asking local businesses to "support" your event by putting their logo on a screen, you aren't selling sponsorships... you're leaving tens of thousands of dollars on the table. </p>
<p>Most hosts treat sponsorships like donations, cluttering their venue with "logo soup" while struggling to get past the receptionist. In this episode, you're getting the ticket to the exact framework that took Lauren's client from a deflating $8,000 in support to over $32,000 in cash sponsorships plus a suite of experience-elevating in-kind partners - without a bigger audience or sending cold emails. </p>

Aug 31, 202613 minS1

<p>Most hosts price tickets off a guess, get hit with unexpected AV, staging, and vendor line items weeks before doors open, and end up working 18-hour days just to break even on an event that was supposed to make them rich.</p>
<p>That's why Lauren is breaking down her signature profit planning framework and revealing how to audit your breakdown metrics, catch hidden supplier fees early, and guarantees your event is profitable before you open the cart.<...
The Visitor Economy Engine: How to Turn Local Ticket Sales into Region Wide Tourism Growth
Aug 31, 202613 minS1
<p>When reviewing an event client's strategy, Lauren spotted a silent killer in under 30 seconds: the team was measuring basic ticket attendance instead of true tourism impact. </p>
<p>Just because people buy tickets doesn't mean you've stimulated the local visitor economy. So Lauren is breaking down the vital difference between single event thinking and destination thinking. Discover how a single pillar program and narrow sponsorship deck cap your audience reach, and learn how to re-engineer your event programming to attract families, day-trippers, and multi-night visitors who spend at local hotels, cafes, and retail precincts. </p>

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
