We have been using GigSalad for over 3 years now. They have provided awesome characters, great face painters, clowns, mermaids, unicorn ponies, fire dancers, carolers, Santa's and more. So easy and convenient to use. We highly recommend this service.
I have acquired several repeat customers as a result of initial contacts coming from GigSalad searches. I am going to move into their upgraded service at the end of my season; my trial with them shows value for money, proven results and no hassles. Gotta' like it when a service 'walks the talk'.
I've enjoyed doing a lot of these smaller events for local clients in the metro Atlanta area. We have had great success and every booking through Gig Salad has been flawless. I like the fact that my clients can leave reviews and my five star rating helps me get even more bookings. For an event MC for all occasions, look me up on Gig Salad: Kozmo!
We're happy to hear that our platform is working well for you, Norman! Thank you for sharing your experience.
These folks were very helpful both on-line and with Ryan on the telephone while I was booking a bluegrass band for my anniversary party. I received 3 or 4 quotes the day that I made my request. Interesting all of their quotes were considerably less in cost than "Gig-masters"

Hi Ed, that's so great to hear! We hope you had a blast at your party!
Gigsalad is great to use to get gigs for my group. We get notifications by text when someone posts a gig for us to bid on, and it keeps track of bids and messages. Now there is a calendar where we can post availability, too. We are already booked up for Christmas 2022!
That's amazing, Pat! Thank you for sharing and we're so happy the platform is working well for you.
Great service! I am new, here. From Washington state where I was an accomplished and busy Santa. I decided late in the year to see if I could land a couple of gigs in California and within hours, I had multiple opportunities to bid jobs and have landed a couple of nice ones to make my season cheerful!
What a great story! So glad we could help make your move a successful one, Santa Rob!
GigSalad works for me! I am a balloon artist, face painter in Miami, Florida. GigSalad consistently brings clients to me, amazing clients. GigSalad fees are well worth the service and their customer support is very warm and very human! Love it!
Thank you, Irina! We're so glad you get to make a living doing what you love!
Gig Salad is my favorite booking site. It is easy for both vendors and clients to use, utilizes on-line contracts (I insert my own clauses and conditions), and overall has a modern, friendly feel to it. I've been booked about twice per month so far, better than I expected. I prefer them over The Bash. Way to go, guys...
This is from a vendor's perspective. They have been great since we signed up in sending us several leads a day. (Compared to their biggest competitor who hardly sends us any)
We have received many real and confirmed bookings from them and it has been a real boost to our income. All is transparent & streamlined and fact you can add pictures to a quote is super!
If you need additional work (we work in the entertainment sector) do not hesitate to use GigSalad. My highest recommendation. AAAAA+++++
Wow, thank you, Andre! We're so glad that you're finding success with our platform. Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can help with anything in the future!
For the price I pay yearly, I make my money back in less than 1 booking so anything on top of that is gravy.
Platform is easy to use and great even if you want to take the booking outside.
Never had an issue using GS and will continue to stick around
Hi Alex, we're so glad that GigSalad has been a great investment for you! Thank you for your kind words.
I can't say enough about how great Gigsalad is. It's easy to use, they're always improving already great features, and their customer service is fast and extra courteous. Have gotten lots of work from there, which is the goal!
I'm a musician, and have booked 5 gigs so far with Gig Salad. They've all been premium, top notch gigs, the pay has been great, and it's nice that they deal with the monetary end of things, so no money exchanges hands between me and a client. Plus the gig is paid for up front so you know you're getting paid. One thing I recommend -- build a little extra into your quote to cover the service fees. If you're trying to walk away from a gig with $500, quote the gig at $525. Overall this is a great service, I would highly recommend. However...
Don't expect premium gigs and clients if you don't have premium content displaying what you do. If you're a musician, and have a shaky iPhone video from an old phone shot in 2011 with crummy audio & people talking in the background... you're probably not going to do very well. You get out of this what you put into it. Make a top notch profile... get professional quality pictures, video and audio, write a great bio etc. etc.
Hi Daniel, we're so glad it's working for you! And so much "yes!" on your advice. You get back what you put in and it's cool to hear that you understand that! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
I set up my profile and with in a day I had a request to come and perform and lead worship at a church just a couple of hours away. We negotiated a reasonable fee and now I'm looking forward to being with them this Sunday morning. I hope to gain many new friends and opportunities through gig salad as I continue to expand my music and ministry.
That's awesome, Doug! We're so happy our platform is helpful to you.
Love GigSalad! Just signed up with them and they've already given me some leads and have gotten me booked! Definitely would recommend for entrepreneurs or people who specialize in live performance or entertainment.
We're so glad it's working well for you, Victoria! Thank you for sharing your kind words.
Yes I love Gigsalad! I always get quality leads, which equate to more bookings!
Also everything is set up so professionally that the client doesn't hesitate to pay the total booking fee in advance.
Not to mention, percentage wise, the service fee deducted from our gigs is very reasonable.
I am a very satisfied member. "Uptown Saxman"
Edmond, this means so much to us. We pride ourselves on great customer service, so thank you for the kind words!
As a working musician, the hardest part of my job is connecting with the right clients for the various performances I offer. Gigsalad brings them to me so I can concentrate on making music instead of cold-call sales.
We're so glad our service is working for you, Trip! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
As a vendor, I cannot say enough about how really good Gigsalad is. By far, in every respect, I find it better than other competitors. Their site is easy to navigate, uncomplicated. I have only the highest regards for the staff at Gigsalad.
And, issues I have with other services, do not exist on Gigsalad. Finally, leads on Gigsalad, more than half respond immediately, ask questions, and a good % book. Not so with others. They are authentic, quality Leads.
You will not go wrong signing up with Gigsalad! Free to start. Others do not have this.
Thank you so much, Steven! We're so happy to hear that GigSalad is working for you.
I do love Gigsalad they are awesome. They rock. Keep getting me gigs. I have had a good experience so far with Gigsalad. My work is starting to grow. I just need higher paying customers from them. But thank you still Gigsalad.
Thank you, Reggie! We hope the bigger clients start coming your way.
You will locate most any type, category, or style of entertainment for most any event need on Gigsalad. Musicians, Dancers, Artists, Comedians, etc. You will find options fitting most budgets. Thier online Artist -Client Agreement is simple, efficient and complete. Artist or Performer Payment process is convenient and safe.
What I like about GigSalad is that it came up afterwards with a system that allows vendors to pay for results. If you're not making enough to justify any yearly payment, you can still benefit from the platform by paying GigSalad a percentage of what you make. This arrangement is much fairer than paying a yearly fee without knowing whether it will produce any result.
Glad to hear the platform works for you, Roderick! Thank you for the feedback.
