Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about our platform.
How do I track time spent on vendor coordination vs. client meetings vs. planning?
Set up different time categories for vendor calls, site visits, design planning, client meetings, and day-of coordination. Track time for each activity separately so you can bill accurately and see where your time actually goes.
Can I manage vendor payments and markups separately from planning fees?
Yes! Record vendor costs separately from your planning and coordination fees. Apply markups transparently. Clients see exactly what vendors charge vs. what you charge for coordination. Track vendor payments to ensure you get paid before paying vendors.
What if I need to coordinate multiple events happening on the same weekend?
See all events in one calendar view with key deadlines highlighted. Track which vendors are confirmed for which events. The system alerts you to potential conflicts so you never double-book vendors or miss a delivery window.
How do I share event timelines that clients can access on event day?
Upload detailed hour-by-hour event timelines, vendor contact lists, and setup schedules to the portal. Clients can access everything from their phone, even offline. No more "where's the timeline?" texts on event day.
Can I set up payment schedules with deposits before events?
Absolutely! Set up payment schedules with deposits, milestone payments, and final payments. Bill for planning fees upfront and day-of management fees before the event. Don't wait until after the event to get paid for your work.
How does AgencyPro handle retainer clients who book multiple events?
Set up monthly retainers for clients with recurring events like corporate galas or quarterly conferences. Track hours against retainer limits, carry over unused time, and invoice automatically so repeat clients see consistent billing for ongoing event planning services.
Can I customize the client portal for each event?
Yes. Brand the portal with your agency logo and colors, then organize each event with its own timeline, vendor list, and document folder. Clients access a polished, dedicated space for their event details rather than a generic project dashboard.
Can AgencyPro scale when my agency handles back-to-back event seasons?
Absolutely. Whether you manage five events or fifty during peak season, the platform handles unlimited events and vendor contacts. Organize by event type, date, or client and onboard seasonal coordinators quickly without disrupting existing workflows.
How do planners and coordinators collaborate on events in AgencyPro?
Assign role-based access so lead planners, day-of coordinators, and design teams each see relevant event details. Share vendor updates, upload floor plans, and coordinate logistics in real time without relying on group texts or email threads.
What kind of event profitability reports can I generate?
View revenue versus hours invested per event type — weddings, corporate events, galas, or private parties. Identify which event categories deliver the best margins and where coordination time erodes profitability so you can adjust pricing and staffing.
