You must negotiate terms and conditions with event venues to meet business service expectations while staying within your budget. You are expected to handle every aspect of the event, including venue selection, audio-visual equipment, catering, and the organization of other activities and transportation. You work closely with the client or representatives to prepare for details like the number of guests, the amount of display space needed, and the type of food for which they are looking.
