Gig Soup
March 2008
Matches performers with event planners who have non-specific entertainment booking needs.
Every day, boatloads of event planners come to us looking to book entertainment and services for their events. There are some who know exactly what they want, and some who do not. We created Gig Soup for those planners who can't decide on a specific type of entertainment or on a specific act to meet their needs.
Gig Soup gives performers the option of responding to a lead if they are interested in the gig, regardless of their regular travel distances and availabilities. Performers respond to Gig Soup leads by logging into their Gig Salad account, and it's seamless for event planners, as we make the connections from Gig Salad to Gig Soup behind the scenes. Soup's on!
Book a Star
August 2009
Allows performers, bands and speakers to set up free, feature-rich websites.
With photo and video galleries, agent friendly options, gig calendar, audio player, reviews, booking info and more, Book a Star 1-Minute Websites provide the perfect no-cost solution for entertainers to get up and running on the web quickly.
Because our 1-Minute Websites pull files and data straight from Gig Salad PromoKits, any edit a performer makes on their PromoKit will appear automatically and instantly on their website. 'High-quality', 'free', and 'easy to use' are rarely found together in the same sentence, but we've taken the narrow road with this exceptional feature!
