FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I usually charge by the hour and event location (no travel charges for local events). When constructing a balloon structure for delivery; time to make, materials (size of delivery), and delivery location are considered. Local delivery pieces are in line with the charges of local florist and are often lower.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When receiving a call or quote request I like to discuss the event information, customer expectations, special request(s) and cost. The customer is able to contact me at anytime if they have any future questions or last minute requests. My arrival to their event is always early with plenty of time to set-up prior to the time hired for. When set-up is completed I begin performing even if early at no additional charge to the customer.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been involved with Twisting Balloons for over 25 years and continually attend seminars, conventions, and twisting jams in balloon art and Deco. Other education involves and received by researching current and up to date designs through the internet, dvd's, and relationships with other Balloon Artists.
