From Calls to Confetti

Selling trust before selling a “yes”;

How I learned sales was personal…

I’ve switched industries, taken on different roles, worked at different desks, and carried different calling cards.

Some called it confusion. I called it survival.

What I didn’t know back then was that every switch was quietly sharpening a skill, thickening my skin, and nudging me closer to where I truly belonged, the event industry.

Selling a product is one thing. You pitch, you quote, you close, and you move on. But selling a service—especially in events—is a whole different ball game. You’re selling:

• Trust
• Emotion, and
• Promise that says, "Relax. We’ve got this."

You’re selling a feeling that hasn’t happened yet. And when that feeling finally comes alive at the event, it’s magic.

Most people think the event industry is about stages, lights, décor, and engagement activities. That’s just the tip of the iceberg. What we really build is an experience, one that attendees carry home long after the lights go off. And honestly?

The bigger kick is ours. That rush when an event clicks, when a client smiles without saying a word, when chaos turns into applause—that’s our fuel. That’s why we come back hungrier for the next one.

Every day in client operations begins with a fresh connection and ends with the successful closure of another event. We celebrate, we high-five, we breathe for a moment. And then reset—back to square one.

New calls, new conversations, new hopes. You’re only as good as your next effort.

We celebrate the win, but never unpack and stay.

True sales isn’t persuasion; it’s partnership. Here’s the secret weapon—at SOS Party, I’m never alone in this hustle.

Behind every pitch, every plan, every last-minute fire drill, there’s an army having my back.

From the talent team to creatives, from operations to production, everyone shows up ready to swing hard and cover every angle, making sure every event hits harder than expected.

Looking back, every switch, every stumble, every self-doubt was part of the script.

Today, at SOS Party, I don’t just sell events—I sell belief. And somewhere between the pitch decks and confetti, I found my place :)
