      Event planners have an exciting, high-paying job that allows them to use their creativity to organize fun and important events such as fairs and festivals, charity fundraisers, parties, conferences, meetings, grand openings, political events, trade shows, reunions and more. In this book, successful event planners share insider tips and expert advice on how to break into event planning.

The book includes information about more than a dozen types of organizations that hire event planners and the best ways to contact them, where event planning jobs are advertised, what employers look for, how to prepare a resume that stands out, plus other ways to find a job. You will learn how to get practical experience, and create an impressive portfolio even with no previous experience. The book also explains how to start an event planning business for little or no money. It covers: potential clients, marketing, pricing, and where to get creative ideas for events. Also included are valuable resources for event planners, information to become certified as a professional event planner, and more. The CD-ROM that comes with the book includes many helpful samples and checklists that can be used to plan events.

      3 out of 5 stars OK but not what I expected.......2004-12-23

      Contained some good information but not as comprehensive as the Ultimate Guide.

      5 out of 5 stars Fabulous information!.......2004-10-20

      This book is fabulous!

      It is full of useful and helpful information from finding venues and how to work with suppliers to where to find clients and how to promote yourself.

      The CD-ROM included with the book has so many marvellous sample forms (from sample contracts to sample reference letters and sample invoices) that saved me many hours of time. All I had to do with the forms was to insert my information into them to make them my own.

      The other great thing about this book is that it can be applied to any occassion or special event so I am able to use it for information whether I am planning a child's birthday party for a client or an AGM for a corporation.

      I have read several other books on Event Planning but the FabJob book encompasses everything I needed to know to get started. Highly recommended!

      PS Although the book touches on all events, including weddings, for additional details and advice on Weddings I also bought their FabJob Guide to Become a Wedding Planner which I also recommend if you are planning on incorporating wedding planning into your business as well.
