Booking Agent Resume
Booking agents work independently or for agencies. Their role is to help clients book their shows and handle necessary arrangements. Their clients are usually people from entertainment industries and may be models, actors, singers, and musicians. The booking agents coordinate between their clients and the venue operators. These professionals ensure that the contract terms are acceptable to both the parties. However, the terms of agreement will differ according to the profession of their clients. As such, the duties also vary. They also have to take care of the payment terms. To ensure concerts of their clients generate good returns, the booking agents also work with promoters to promote the events and sell tickets. If their clients are actors and models, they will liaise with TV and movie producers for a role as well as with companies for securing commercial spots for their clients.
The following music booking agent resume will provide you a general idea on how to display your talents to the agencies.
