Planning
Visioning, Strategic Planning, and Defining Expectations

Scaling
Operations, Personnel, Team Building, and Scaling Up
Do you stress out every time you need help with an event? No longer! Your fellow co-op members are a built-in labor pool. You already know and trust them and they already know and trust you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Co-Op Marketing?
Co-op marketing is generally something only available to large groups and franchisees. Group members and franchisees can pool their resources for a larger or more frequent ad buy or to amplify their reach. For example, if you’ve ever seen “find at the following participating stores” you’ve seen co-op marketing.
Although we may sometimes choose to buy ads together, our co-op marketing is more like an Instagram pod across multiple social media channels. We each agree to follow, like and comment on other co-op members posts to help boost interaction and enhance our credibility.
How Do I Know if the ATX Event Co-Op Is Right for Me?
Are you tired of meeting clients at coffee shops? That awkward feeling when you text your client from the car as you’re walking in. Then, as you stare at your phone waiting for a response, you frantically search for someone with blonde hair and a blue shirt only to see a brunette with a teal shirt waving and calling your name.
Do you have questions about other aspects of your events and aren’t sure who to ask?
- build your business and teach you about theirs
- boost your social media posts
- as a contract team member at your events and hire you for their’s
- brainstorm ways to get you more clients
- do all of these things for less than the cost of a small office.
If you said yes to one or more of these questions you may be a good fit for the ATX Event Co-Op.
Does the Co-Op Only Accept Established Companies?
Yes, but we only require your business to be a year old to qualify. Because our membership is limited to 2 businesses per category and we each own and
What types of resources do Co-Op members share?
Besides studio space, members have the option to pool their rental items, make money even when they don’t have an event, and rent out items without having to invest in inventory
They also have a built-in labor pool and have the option to contract to work each other’s events and hire other members to help with their own.
Most importantly, we share knowledge. We learn how other event businesses work and find out what has worked for other members in real-world situations. From paid advertising to time-saving tools, we freely share what works for us.
Do You Have to Join the Co-Op to Rent Out the Conference Room?
No, if you just need a quiet place to meet a client you are welcome to rent by the hour as long as the room is available.
