Contract Negotiations:
Negotiating contract terms is a critical aspect of talent booking, encompassing fees, rider requirements, and performance expectations. However, the complexity and time-consuming nature of these negotiations can pose significant challenges.
To streamline this process, STLR has adopted standardized contract templates tailored to specific talent categories or event types that help expedite negotiations while ensuring consistency and compliance.
