When planning an event for a client, to what extent are you responsible for marketing? Do you integrate the marketing along with the planning, or is everything separate? How do you manage your client's relationships?

    I think any vendor has some responsibility in the marketing and good publicity for an event. Whether you are providing lighting, organizing the event, or just providing temporary staffing, you are still very much invested in the success of the event. However, overall marketing should be assigned to someone specific, whether it falls under a marketing position or the event planner’s responsibilities. It’s too important to be left to chance.
