I'm an event planner/event managment which is another title. This is a very rewarding job, and the money can be good, but not all shows are succesful at first and you do need alot of fiancial backup. If you got that and a solid business plan then you can do this type of work. I'd suggest that you team up with someone as one person alone cannot do this. You may wish to contact:

Do you mean you need an event coordinator for some upcoming event? Do you need assistance planning an event?\n\nIf you are going to hold your event in a hotel or convention center, they will have a Sales and Catering Office full of helpful event planner people.\n\nAlso most companies have an event manager, sometimes they are an off shoot of the marketing department who can assist you.\n\nGood luck!

How about looking at www.confetti.co.uk - although it's initially for wedding information, it shows venue information.  Otherwise try looking at Square Meal on the internet at the venues they have listed.  Top Table might be useful too although I think that might be more for restaurants.  Good luck - hope you find somewhere great and have a brilliant night!

Maybe my space or any on line chat community. They have mini blogs and groups. Start your own and that will spark links and rings for your topic.  I don't know of any for Costco right off, but if you find one for Home Depot. Drop me a line!

Basically organizing events, it can be personal events like wedding or birthday parties or corporate events like when some company is going to launch new products, having clients gathering, etc. But it also can be an individual events that are produced by the event management company itself like making a music concert or other commercial events.

I suggest you read the article "How to Start an Event and Meeting Planning Business"   http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol153/eventplanning.htm . The article is comprehensive and contains information on the market segments of this business, how to market and get clients for an event planning business, and the key success factors of this business.\n\nAdvertising is not the best way to get clients for an event planning business, but rather more as a branding and to get your name out there. Rather, networking and word of mouth are the most effective ways of getting clients. \n\nThe first step, however, is to determine your market segment. Will you go after the social market, corporate market, non profits, regional markets, etc? Given that each market segment has different needs, your marketing strategy will vary depending on the market segment that you cater. \n\nIf you are focusing on social events catering to individuals, your pitch may be based on the premise that your services can release them from all the tasks required to create a great and worry-free event. By outsourcing the event to you, your customers can have more free time for their family and friends. \n\nWhen marketing to public or private organizations, your main selling point should be greater efficiency for the money and a professional event without error. Groups, especially large ones, do not wish to deal with problems that arise due to oversight on their part. If the guarantee of worry-free, error-free events is available at a cost benefit to them, there really appears to be no better choice. \n\nI suggest you check out the following books for detailed information on how to run an event planning business:\n\n- How to Start a Home-Based Event Planning Business \n- The Essential Event Planning Kit \n- The Business of Event Planning: Behind-the-Scenes Secrets of Successful Special Events \n- Entrepreneur Magazine's Start Your Own Event Planning Business : Your Step by Step Guide to Success (Start Your Own Event Planning) \n- Event Planning : The Ultimate Guide to Successful Meetings, Corporate Events, Fundraising Galas, Conferences, Conventions, Incentives and Other Special Events

You can go to Wordtracker.  It is an excellent resource for keyword related information.  I use it regularly for my web site.

You can approach events and exhibition companies. They may have qualified leads in your area of business. That will satisfy your management desire for instant action. That said, spam mail are not welcomed. Best is to have personal follow-ups. The other method is to harvest it yourself. It only takes some patience and a bit of resourcefulness.
