246 - Being an Event Contractor: How to Get Hired (and Rehired)

In this episode, we flip the perspective from last week's episode and talk about what it really means to be an event contractor — and how to get hired (and rehired). We break down how contracting differs from freelancing or staff roles, which event positions tend to work best in this model, and what helps you stand out before you ever arrive onsite. We also cover professional rate conversations, boundaries, and how to be helpful without overstepping. SHOW NOTES:Relisten to the first part in last week's episode, Episode #245!
