Surreal booking and invoicing process for agents 🎊
New to booking on Surreal? Once your Agency profile has been set up, here's an overview of your booking and invoicing process:
- Invite/add entertainers to your Agency contact list: create your agency roster by inviting your existing entertainers to sign up to Surreal so they can be booked by you at the venue
- Create draft event calendar (single or recurring event series) and performances for each time slot.
-> Note that the booking rate allows you to enter your agency commission component as a separate amount to the artist payment. Venues can only see the total amount per booking and cannot view any payment split if you have added your agency commission to the performance.
-> Add entertainers to each draft performance date then either send them a booking offer or directly confirm if already had prior contact with the artist and they've verbally committed to the set.
-> Send messages to confirmed entertainers through Chat to discuss additional details, or set up an event worksheet to share event details such as venue contact details, parking, setlist requirements etc
-> Once the performance has ended, update any booking details to ensure payment is correct prior to invoicing.
-> Once verified and invoiced by the venue, track payment status updates in your Agency payments tab (depending on Surreal payment settings for the agency profile)
