This training will help you if:
- You are an event freelancer and have zero ideas of how to break into the VIP event industry so you don’t even try to find a gig at one
- You worked at maybe one VIP event gig you got by chance or through a previous full time employer but the opportunities weren’t consistent after that
- You feel like an imposter who couldn’t possibly work at a VIP event or even dare to try because you don’t have enough experience or credentials

How do I know this is the answer to your problem?
I used to be in your shoes - I always dreamed of working at a VIP event like the Olympics, a Royal wedding, or awards shows. But I didn’t know where to start, and I was too introverted and reserved to ask for help. My first gig actually landed in my lap because I was in the right place at the right time, but I felt way out of my league. I got through it. Just.
After that event, I took several steps back and thought, “No way can I do that again until I get more experience.” I had experience, though. The things I didn’t have? A strategy, professional image, professional brand, marketing plan, or any knowledge of VIPs themselves.
Eventually, I figured it out - I didn’t have to Google “how to work at xx event” - those search results don’t even exist anyways (trust me, I used to try). I became one of the go-to VIP event professionals.
I took it a step further and trained in etiquette and VIP protocol from the world’s best trainers to polish my image and brand because I was working in prestigious environments and wanted to blend in with the VIPs themselves to be taken seriously.
This whole journey has taken me from The Olympics, film festivals and press conferences with celebrities to being one of the key team members at the Wimbledon Championships and the VIP consultant of the Laver Cup. The projects I have coming up are just as prestigious. I’ve been around hundreds of VIPs, laughed with Hollywood celebrities who respect me because I know how and what to do, and been face to face with the world’s most famous athletes who know me by name now.
I want all of this for you - these event opportunities aren’t scarce. They are abundant, but no one knows exactly how to book their first one. I created the program so that you don’t have to be like me - sitting around wondering and waiting for it or prematurely and suddenly thrown in the thick of it so deep that your confidence is shattered and you don’t get another gig. You don’t have to experience it the way I did because I’ve made the process easier. Join me in A Flair for VIP Events - I’m ready to cheer you on during the 12 weeks and forever after that!
xo,
Laura
