“What should I budget for an open bar service?”… “I’m not sure what to budget for a service like yours…”
…Are reoccurring statement on consultation calls.
Not sure about you, but I am a visual person! When I am investing in a service or product, I like to really get a feel for what’s included and what I can expect.
It is an assumption that our service starts when you see us standing behind the bar – That is NOT the case.
The Rolling Pour services are working with you and for you long before the first bottle of wine is uncorked.
In an effort to help you visualize what is included in our services, below is some insight on some of our great events this year!
A 9-day bar service for the Masters tournament took 4 weeks of planning, prep and organizing – That’s roughly 670 hours.
A one night 300-person party for Amazon took 6 days of communication, preparation and organization – That’s around 140 hours.
Once the deposit is made – The Rolling Pour service is in motion.
Our expansive list of SOPs include:
- Inventory
- Quantities
- Staffing
- Drink creation
- Shopping
- Prepping
- Organizing
- Loading
And the list goes on…
As you can now see, our work starts days before we arrive to pour at your event. It’s our mission to create a seamless experience where you (our client) do not have to worry about anything bar related!
Last week, we booked a private party for Labor Day weekend. Roughly 72 hours of service has already been put into this event which includes, shopping lists, drink creations, quantities and providing the best customer service experience overall!
When you are thinking about a budget for hiring us, keep these points in mind.
I cannot guarantee that the cost will be what you may think, BUT I can guarantee a seamless, memorable service that will make your event the one that stands out from all the rest!
