Introducing Project Management—built specifically for the live events industry

We recently announced that we are launching Project Management, designed specifically for the events and entertainment industry.

?The reaction has been exciting!?

When speaking to leaders in the industry, it's clear that the lack of a do-it-all tool is a big problem. Most event companies use more than one tool to manage projects because there isn't a single tool that speaks the language of events and integrates into their current workflow.?

One Shared Space for Your Team's Work

? Bring your team’s work together in one shared space

? Stop shuffling between spreadsheets, email, and other tools to keep your projects on track

? Easily manage everything in real-time—from day one to the deadline

? Collaborate with clients and freelancers with permission-based accessibility

*Project Management will be available in Q1 2023.?

?? What's Next??

In the coming weeks, we'll be sending out an email to LASSO customers that are on the project management waitlist. This will give our customers the first priority to explore the value of having project management embedded within the LASSO platform.

Due to the number of waitlist sign-ups, we'll be offering these in group sessions by giving the option to select one of three potential dates the first week of February.

Quick Recap of Inaugural National Crew Appreciation Week

Last month, we kicked off the first-ever National Crew Appreciation Week. Our goal was simple: Recognize and celebrate all of the crew in our industry.

Admittedly, we weren't sure how much noise we could make in doing this for the first time.

But to no surprise, our industry rallied.?

Companies nominated crew. Crew nominated crew.

And frankly, the responses were both loud and encouraging.
