Hi guys, I’m Elliott, founder of Extravaganza!
Extravaganza connects entertainers with event planners and consumers for events such as weddings, birthdays, corporate functions etc. We make the process of discovering and booking entertainers smoother, cheaper and more transparent.
Our aim is to do for entertainment what Airbnb did for home rental, not just introduce a better solution, but make live entertainment more accessible to a wider audience.
I’ll be around all day to answer any questions!
Love the concept, @elliottjperry, but the inventory seems a little light right now. How are you getting DJ's, face painters, dancers, etc. on board?
Thumbtack is also a good place to look for these types of people.
@rrhoover Ryan, thanks for stopping by ;) We've been operating in the UK exclusively (since November 2015) until our Product Hunt launch this morning - hopefully the start of a glorious relationship with the US and beyond. We're experimenting with a number of different ways to onboard entertainers and I'll be interested to see how they fare in the US. Always open to suggestions of course! ...?
It has always been very difficult for me to find the right entertainers for my events. Had to rely only on people my friends or I already knew. This is a event-safer and a motivation to do more interesting events.
@giangiska I hear that Gianluca! ...And I completely agree, the more barriers we remove from booking live entertainment and the more frictionless the process becomes, the more adventurous people will become when it comes to entertainment at their events :)
@farah_berahman Thank you for the kind words Farah! We're still discovering the optimum way to facilitate communication between our users - right now we offer in-app messaging and are investigating both email integration and SMS yes :)
@elliottjperry If you are considering SMS, my company, Infobip can provide you with SMS connectivity. We have 350 direct relationships with the carriers in 190 countries. Feel free to send me an email if you'd want me to set up a free test account for you. farah.berahman@infobip.com
@varun3 Up until very recently we were UK only Varun. We opened up the site to work globally as of this week so it may take a little longer to get coverage across Europe but we'll get there! Looks like you've got a background in online marketplaces yourself - maybe it's worth us having a chat?
