Tips: Booking National Acts

The staff members at G.L. Berg Entertainment are experienced in working with clients to secure the best possible entertainment for each unique event. Sometimes these events call for nationally-known entertainers from organizations looking to draw people to their event or to reward employees or customers for their work. These events range from landmark company anniversaries such as the 50th or 100th year in business, grand openings, festivals, city-wide events, annual meetings, award banquets, or motivational meetings and workshops.

Our Entertainment Consultant Lauri Neubert has over a decade of experience in contracting national comedians and musical acts for corporate clients, theaters, casinos, fairs and festivals. It is her specialty. She knows who to call, what to ask, and how to best represent our clients' needs when negotiating, contracting and producing these shows.
