  1. PPL® SOFTWARE EVENT OPERATIONS and MANAGEMENT SYSTEM “Right People, Right Place, Right Time … Real Easy”

  2. What is PPL® Software? PPL® is a new paradigm in the way you run your business. It’s a robust relational database built by and for event specialists. Create detailed event records within the system and track and manage every aspect of your event from clients to venue contacts to personnel and vendors or volunteers. PPL® has everything you need to manage your events easily and completely. It can be installed locally for PCs or used over the internet with PCs and Macs in a cloud application.

  3. Benefits of PPL® 1) Pays for itself quickly through increased productivity. 2) Intuitive and logical set-up. Easy to use. 3) Reduces frustration. Keep all your information in one location. PPL® becomes your master software. The information is entered once, and then appropriate items flow to the right people. Each person receives only what he or she needs to know. 4) Integrates with Outlook, Word and QuickBooks.

  4. PPL® helps manage the most important aspects of your event: • Sales. Once you’ve made contact with a buyer, PPL® helps you track the sales process from start to finish. CRM, Customer Relations Management. • Quality Control. Who is the best person or vendor for the job? You create a skill list for Personnel and Vendors and priority list for each skill if you wish. • Communication. Use customizable e-mail templates to automate communication with the important four: Buyer, Event Contact, Venue Contact and Personnel and Vendors. Use the Merge to Document feature to create custom contracts, proposals and other documents and merge info from PPL® records to them. • Simple Bookkeeping. Track what you’ve charged the buyer, the percentage of profit, and the amount to pay each person or vendor. Create an export file to QuickBooks for check printing. PPL® feeds information to QuickBooks so you don’t waste time with double entry. Use Sales Reports to find simple financial information within a date range. • Babysitting can be the most time-consuming and frustrating thing that you have to do. Many times, it’s not just babysitting the personnel/vendors, it’s also checking in with the Buyers, Event Contacts and Venue Contacts. Use the built-in reminder system to send confirmations to everyone involved a few days before the job.

  20. Some well known industry leaders are using PPL®.  Here is what they are saying… Paul Creighton, Executive Vice-President, T. Skorman, Orlando, FL “… I'm convinced that PPL has the potential to revolutionize the entertainment agency business.  It is intuitive, comprehensive, and has the ability to fold in legacy contracts and reports.  And best of all, the efficiencies gained from PPL more than cover the costs."

  21. Maria Battaglia, Owner, Always Entertaining, Las Vegas, NV “PPL has moved our company forward by making us technologically advanced. With its automated text messaging that lets talent know there is a job waiting for them and its contract writing ease, PPL has made booking talent and communications with clients more efficient. It not only saves time, but keeps all information managed in one place, or job file. With talent headed in many directions at all hours of the day, PPL is great at keeping everybody current with the latest gig info. Integrating with QuickBooks is the next step for us. All in all, PPL is your one-stop shop ‘information download’ and has been a great addition to our company culture.”

  22. Dennis Smith, Band Leader, Party on the Moon, Atlanta, GA “One of the many benefits of using PPL is my increased ability to develop more and better relationships with my clients, and we know that those relationships are the key to success.”

  23. Van Vinikow, Leader, The String Beings String Quartet, Reno, NV “PPL allows me to hire string players quickly and efficiently. With PPL I have reduced the time spent hiring multiple string quartets by 50%! It was easy to learn, and now I can keep track of my personnel and gigs with a simple glance at my screen. PPL has freed me from hours upon hours on the phone and endless e-mailing. The simplicity and design is near genius. I am amazed at the amount of time I’ve saved and how my business runs smoother and more professionally. Bravo Jeffrey! And Bravo PPL!”
