AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

Enables event planners to access a wider range of entertainers and content, improves marketing opportunities for indie artists, and enhances interaction and feedback mechanisms, thereby increasing entertainment options and promoting content effectively.

Problems solved by technology

Currently, a number of factors limit the event planner and the entertainer.

For example, when the event planner is cost-conscious, then the event planner is limited to selecting the entertainer who is located within a reasonable traveling distance to the venue.

Likewise, the entertainer is limited to marketing and providing entertainment services to non-cost-conscious event planners and / or geographic regions located within a reasonable traveling distance from the entertainer.

Similarly, since the entertainer is usually personally present at the event, sharing the entertainer between multiple events is impractical.

Also, in context of the DJ, music available to the DJ is often limited by a number of compact discs (CDs), equipment, records and / or other media the DJ can physically bring.

Additionally, if, on the day of the event, the entertainer is unavailable due to an unforeseeable circumstance, such as an illness, traffic, poor weather and / or an equipment malfunction, then the event planner is limited to few, if any, last minute entertainer alternatives.

Moreover, interaction between event attendees and the entertainer, such as song requests and / or event attendee feedback, is typically limited if a number of people attending the event is large and / or the event is spread over a large area of the venue, such as a large dance floor.

Moreover, many indie music artists, such as composers, performers, musicians, and / or singers, have insubstantial financial resources.

Resultantly, the artists are limited in marketing their content.

Such restraint often leads to reduced content promotion and / or reduced name recognition.
