6. Notes & Costs This proposal is written as a broad outline to showcase how we can provide the Event support to your event, ensuring it’s success on the day. This is not the definitive article and shouldn’t be considered as such, as we would anticipate some in-depth work with yourselves going forward. In our view events continue to evolve right up to a few weeks before and hence we like to keep everything flexible. We would be delighted to join you on 12th September should our proposal be successful. We are aware that you have not specified a budget and we are also aware that a large number of costs will be based on final location, numbers etc. However based on anticipated numbers of 100 attendees we would expect our fees to be £3,500 + vat. This cost also includes all meetings with yourselves and venue visits, everything outlined on page 2 and onsite event management with two staff to ensure the smooth running of the entire event and all its composite parts. This cost does not include the following, all of which we can source and negotiate on your behalf. We can finance these costs and invoice yourselves or you can be invoiced directly: Venue hire, catering & refreshment costs, IT and AV costs Brochure design, printing and distribution [i.e. postage] costs Pack, questionnaire, design and printing costs Badges Bespoke website design Event insurance Photographer Accommodation for Umhan representatives, speakers and event staff Pre-conference dinner Overheads: travel to/from the event, bespoke mobile, Inspired Events – August 2011
