We love nothing more than helping people run event that makes people happy. Garth Lategan our event couch started in the event industry in London in 1992 as a function waiter, in October 1999 he started his own event business. In 2012 he became a qualified event profession trainer in the education vocational sector in Melbourne.
Event coaching:
If you want to put on events that create a great atmosphere, you have come to the right place. When I was running my own business the underlying theme was helping people break into the event industry either by helping DJs get gigs, decor artist to create their magic or helping friends run their own event. I want to help and support you, so you can create the events you have always wanted.
How does it work?
We have put Garth’s 24 years’ experience into 3 tight packages so he can help and support you in your journey to bring people together. You get to choose one of these packages We will then send you a questionnaire to help you get clear on what you’re struggling with or what you want help with, then we’ll get straight into it.
Your coaching sessions will be created after you’ve answered the questionnaire, as there’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach when it comes to events. Below are some of the topics we may cover but your answers will help determine exactly what you need and what we should work on.
