After submitting my request, the site sent out requests to multiple bands/musicians. That eliminated a huge amount of leg work for me. When proposals came in, there was just one site to check and I received alerts in my email and text messages about proposals coming in. Extremely helpful. I love how quickly the musicians responded to my request. When I started messaging one particular directly, his responses were very fast and informative. Booking was easy, and I loved the explanation of how/when the money was distributed. Overall, a great process. Hugely convenient and helpful.

It is complicated for old folks…newbs know all this oldsters use personal emails & phone numbs….going thru a program assumes you know how to navigate one.

Thank you for your feedback! We understand that navigating a new platform can take some getting used to, and we appreciate you sharing this with us.
Streamlined the process of finding a vendor seamlessly. I was able to research reviews, receive direct quotes to my texts, also chat back and forth. Payment process was very user friendly and now I think I may advertise my service on this platform.

A great and easy experience! I can’t wait for my event. I’m sure it will be more special with the entertainment!

Found the perfect fit!
Finding for the right fit for my engagement was so simple. One request from me and a dozen vendors were immediately invited to check out my event and send me quotes, without my having to do all the research aforehand. There were several (good!) options for what I was looking for. It made it hard to choose! And here I was worried I wouldn't find anyone! Silly me. Thank you GigSalad. This is my first booking with you, but it certainly won't be the last.

Speaking with Paula felt natural. She picked up on what I wanted for my husband's 46 birthday immediately. She's talented, I've listened to her music and enjoyed it immensely. The application is user friendly with a variety of talent. When I saw Paula's videos and read her bio I knew this stunning talent would be perfect for my event.

Excellent platform - excellent service!
The platform was very well organized, and the offerings were submitted so that we could take a look at each of them and make a decision - and the communication was excellent - the booking process couldn't be easier!

I had a great experience
I had a great experience. I received several quotes from musicians. It was very easy to see the quotes and listen to their music. I had easy access to speak with the musician we picked and booked.
