At Crave we basically take care of anything band related for your live event that doesn’t involve having musical talent and/or ability across the country and even internationally if you’re really keen. The list is virtually endless, but here’s some things to give you an idea...
Merchandise
Merchandise sales is our most popular service. We provide a hassle free service which includes experienced
sellers to expertly sell your goodies, who come with everything required to get the job done. We always bring our own cash float, so you don’t need to worry about change, and if needed we can bring tables, chairs, a shade tent (for outside gigs), display mannequins... If we need it to sell merchandise, we’ll bring it. Whether it's a whole tour or just one night, around the country, the world, or just around the corner, our professional guys and girls will be there to set up attractive visual displays, manage merchandise sales efficiently and accurately, and provide support for artist signings. Our sellers are experienced and confident in stock counts (in/out), and cash balancing at the end of the night so you know that you’re getting the most out of your merchandise. Selling merchandise at gigs is great but what about those people who can’t get to your gigs? You don’t want them to miss out. We can set up an online store that you can manage yourself or we can manage it for you. We can organise an order fulfilment service, where the merchandise is printed and sent out directly from the printer as it is ordered by one of your loyal fans, or a warehousing service, where we store your merchandise already printed and send it out as orders come in. Need some new merchandise? We can source quality merchandise for your band or event. Just let us know what you’re after and we’ll get it for you. Social Media Management
Social media is an ever changing landscape and not keeping fans up to date regularly with what’s going on or even with random pieces on information can mean that fans don’t interact with your page, you stop coming up in news feeds and you eventually get forgotten. You have to keep the buzz going, especially on sites like Facebook where the number of interactions with your page determines how many people see your future posts. Social media is a huge factor these days in sales of singles, albums and ticket sales for your shows so it is crucial that you don’t lose that buzz. That’s where we come in. When we’re not working at gigs, we’re on social media of one kind or another. Even when we are at gigs we’re promoting the event, the band and the merchandise online. This could be a true asset to your band. Why not try us out? Tour Assistants
We can book flights, transportation and accommodation for the band and crew, organise meals, greenroom management and generally run errands
