Another industry developed to support those businesses — hospitality staffing services. It encompasses roles such as servers for hire, bartenders for hire, event and promotional models. Individuals in those roles have the mindset and the skills necessary to provide quality and consistency when it comes to helping clients meet their leisure and recreational needs.
Event staffing professionals get hired for a wide variety of personal and corporate happenings — birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, baby showers, holiday parties, business milestone celebrations, client appreciation events, and other company outings. They are also requested for trade shows, industry conventions, brand activations, and store openings.
So why do so many hosts and event organizers choose to hire them?
Bartending and waitress services are integral to execute the food and beverage portion of events. At large events, with hundreds or even thousands of guests in attendance, it simply wouldn’t be possible to offer food and beverage services without a catering staffing team. But even at smaller informal events having a few dedicated service professionals means that the guests will be well taken care of while the hosts have time for some stress-free socializing.
And using promotional models was proven to be beneficial for establishing the connection between brands, products, or services and their target audience, as well as giving businesses a “human face”.
It’s important to know where to find trained and reliable people that you can trust with taking care of your guests or clients. While you can find offers from individuals on the websites that market freelance services, it could be difficult to verify their experience and credibility.
