Launch Event/My 30th Birthday


Hmmm...Had this idea while dozing off to sleep the other night that maybe the best way to launch my company was through a charity event, obviously aimed at many different charities but in a way hoping to make some money for the Strep B charity to help baby's like Thomas and women like myself not have to go through what I did.

I'm not 100% sure about where to begin with charity events, I suppose a venue is the best place and possibly at a discount with publicity involved. Sponsorship is always another angle, from local societies, charities or shops. I'm obviously a bit out of depth at the moment.

* Venues - Fields, hotels, community centres, schools
* Charities - Cancer, schools, brownies etc, tumble tots, local traders

Obviously with this sort of event I would need event staff and the police, fire services and paramedics would need to be involved in case of an emergency. It sounds like a lot of stress but saying that. I could just do your average event in a hall and rather than charge admission, use the time to sell my services and possibly other services involved, i.e. venues, balloon and flower people, cakes etc.

I suppose with the countdown to my 30th birthday only a year and 5 months away, I need to start looking serious at booking a venue before I loose out to some other silly event. I have various ideas.

*Winter wonderland theme
*Photo on entrance - like school prom style

That's what I have so far. I guess its time to start planning! Yipeeeee...They only problem is finding the funds!!!
