Event planning requires a very specific personality: one that is outgoing, social, and creative enough to tackle the forever-shifting tasks needed plan a successful event.

2. Obtain certifications

Just like any other industry, prior experience is essential to starting a successful event business. 

3. Identify your target market

Before you begin building your event planning business, it is also important to decide on its focus. Decide what types of events you want to plan. Some businesses do industry-agnostic event planning, whereas others capture a niche market, such as corporate events or wedding planning.
There are types of events:
  • Celebrational: These events are festive and exciting. They include fairs, parades, weddings, reunions, birthdays, anniversaries
  • Educational: More formal and information heavy. Includes conferences, meetings, graduations
  • Promotional: These events are a mix of the first two, combining festivities with information. Examples include product launches, political, fashion shows

4. Develop your business plan

Now that you’ve established what your niche will be, it’s time to start laying the foundational work for your event planning business, which includes your business plan. Every business, from Walmart to small nonprofits, needs a business plan to guide their decision making process, educate investors and lenders of your intentions, and to keep your business on the right path when times get rough.

5. Tackle the legal side of your business

6. Obtain startup funding
Your business plan acts as a proposal tool when approaching investors and lenders, so they will feel more comfortable giving away their money to your business. These loans don’t have to come from bank lenders either. Since your business will most likely be localized to your area, you should attempt to reach out to friends and family for startup  cash 

7. Develop your resource network

You will need a network of resources to make your events a reality, such as caterers, entertainers, technical experts, technology suppliers, and marketing experts.
While you organize all of these resources for the events, the vendors will provide the tools necessary. Reach out to friends in the event management industry and check reviews on websites like to find the right vendors to work with.

8. Begin marketing

With your funding in place, it’s time to start marketing your event planning business out to potential clients, partners, and vendors. The best place to start is your own network.
Social media makes this easier than ever, especially with professional networks like LinkedIn. Like groups exist to connect event planners with other planners, as well as with other vendors and clients. like instagram, line, youtube, and the others.
Don’t be afraid to market your new event planning business in person, either. Networking events are perfect for making others aware of your services, but just remember that those types of events are built on what you can do for others, not just what they can do for you.
