I LOVE CELEBRITY ACCESS
| I have said it a million times on various music panels and I will say it again, I LOVE CELEBRITY ACCESS. CelebrityAccess literally changed my life as an independent entertainment entrepreneur.
With the help of CelebrityAccess I now own the Worlds Largest Side Show in the World. We have toured all over the US on OZZ Fest, Family Values Tour, Warped Tour and much more. This summer we took our show to Europe where we filmed our documentary TV show for British Television. With all sincerity, thank you CelebrityAccess.

Paid for itself in the first week!
| With CelebrityAccess I was able to target my strongest markets, reach new venues and have the most successful 2 years of my touring career. The bulk e-blast feature alone is worth the yearly subscription. I highly recommend CelebrityAccess to anybody who is serious about their career.

It is an invaluable tool for a booking agent!

CA has matured in ways that have become the staple of the industry
| I have been a client of yours from almost the very beginning. Without question, CA has matured in ways that have become the staple of the industry. The are so many ways you have improved the use of this web site, but I will name just a few.
1 - The ease of use.
2 - The ability to access an incredible amount of information, to many to mention.
3 - It is now an absolute requirement (as far as I am concerned) for agents, managers, etc. to have this site on their desktop.
4 - Being able to respond to my clients with due diligence the information they request, e.g.; cost, availability, bio information, etc., concerning an artist, is priceless. In many cases this availability has taken my competition right out of the mix.
5 - Your phone support is excellent.
6 - If you're in this business, you can not be without CA. | | Gregg Raffa - Raffa Entertainment Group Inc. |
|
CelebrityAccess is as much a part of my daily routine as the morning coffee.
| Clear the bookshelves, and make room for pictures of the family and nic-nacs! CelebrityAccess has allowed me to put the hard copy directories away, and bring the information to my desktop and fingertips. What a useful resource for all things booking related. CelebrityAccess is as much a part of my daily routine as the morning coffee. Quick and accurate access to a wealth of information, and a friendly, knowledgeable staff to boot. A great service to keep in your hip pocket. Thank You! | | Scott Schecter, Director of Entertainment - Caesars Palace, Las Vegas |
|
Bravissimo to you all!

I am a firm believer of CelebrityAccess.com and have already renewed the site three times.
| I use CelebrityAccess on a daily, and sometimes on a minute by minute basis to produce multiple shows at any given time. We book major headliners of all genres, and manage the talent buying process of the largest casino in the world. We buy more talent, on a yearly basis, then any other casino on the planet. Demanding as it may seem, CelebrityAccess saves us valuable time. Aside from booking talent, we find managers, and production contacts through CelebrityAccess, that help us to advance our shows. Our talent is also widely advertised. CelebrityAccess makes it possible to search the management teams of all our confirmed celebrities to get the most up to the minute artwork, PR contacts, footage and current music. I am a firm believer of CelebrityAccess.com and have already renewed the site three times. I love when a product does what it says - CelebrityAccess has done just that for us. | | Beth Jenkins, Entertainment Events Coordinator - Foxwoods Resort Casino |

Remember the Good Old Days looking up agents and managers in printed directories - No More!
| Having the biographical history, tour schedule, performance price, label, responsible agent and manager phone numbers and email listings at your finger tips gives you reliable, valuable information instantly, when you need it.
I have been a client of CelebrityAccess as an independent producer/promoter for about a decade, a little over seven years of this time at The Vocal Group Hall of Fame. There is no better service of its kind.
CelebrityAccess allows us to keep up with all the Inductees, nominees and qualifying groups, as well as everyone else in the music industry. We would be lost without it.
Thank you CelebrityAccess | | Bob Crosby, President/CEO - The Vocal Group Hall of Fame Foundation |

It saves me invaluable time.
| Far and away, CelebrityAccess is my favorite and most useful tool in the
industry. As a Promoter/Talent Buyer, it saves me invaluable time searching
for fee ranges and box office scores on artists to determine the feasibility
of which artist(s) to put on a festival date. As a band manager, it has a
wealth of information on venues and their contact info. Couldn't do without
it. | | Willie Bennett - United Promotions |
|
It is a great service that I use every day
| The news feature, the contact information organization, search engine, and box office reports all make a big difference in effectively and efficiently navigating the entertainment business environment.
| | James Trudeau - MGM MIRAGE Entertainment & Sports |

I use CelebrityAccess almost every day.

There is no better industry tool available…
| Our company has been using CelebrityAccess for a few years now, and it has been an enormous asset. Not only do we get a great response from potential clients interested in the speakers we represent and have listed on the site, C/A also makes it easy for us to make new contacts throughout the industry, allowing us more flexibility and quicker turn-around time when dealing with customers. There is no better industry tool available, that I know of, offering a similar mix of research and sales-focused materials for the entertainment professional. | | Tom Gagnon - The Lavin Agency |
|
It's there when I need it.
| Concerts are not my life line for bookings (at the Convention Center). Therefore, I don't keep up on tours, avails, costs, etc. When I DO have that need, or when a show becomes an interest to our community, I am armed with the right information at the right time. It's there when I need it. Thanks for keeping me current! | | Larry Gawronski, CFE / Executive Director - Vicksburg (MS) Convention Center |
|
It saves time and expenses. I value the service deeply.

I am already appreciating the ability to sort talent by the new categories.
| Since our last conversation I have been able to experiment with some of the new features on the site. I am already appreciating the ability to sort talent by the new categories. When we are researching talent for corporate clients it is especially useful to be able offer ranges of genre and cost. We recently booked both Isaac Hayes and Manhattan transfer for the same bill. We never would have predicted that combination and our client didn't know what they wanted until they saw it on paper. You can guess what the common denominator was! | | Dave Richenbach - Shout Creative, Inc. |

It's a great service

I've been waiting for a service like this for years.
| CelebrityAccess has been a tremendous asset to On Board Entertainment, and The Spitfire Agency. We use the service daily, and have landed a number of deals due to our ability to quickly access the correct representatives of actors and musicians. And when short phone messages are ineffective, CelebrityAccess's e mail links are especially helpful. They have enabled us to get our entire message to the correct people in a timely manner, and many times this has lead to new business. I've been waiting for a service like this for years. | | Sarah Haynes, Founder - On Board Entertainment/The Spitfire Agency |
|
It's helped pull detailed information that normally would have taken many phone calls and many hours to acquire.
| I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with CelebrityAccess... It's helped pull detailed information that normally would have taken many phone calls and many hours to acquire. I have been able to use this information and share it when working with many of our local arts and musical organizations i.e.. Jazz Festival, Broadway and Theatre Groups, Radio PD'S, etc ... And it's all at my fingertips! So keep inputting all that data, it has been a tremendous asset, especially living in Rapid City, SD - it makes me feel connected to the business on a daily basis. Thanks for pulling this all together. I look forward to what you might do next! | | Jim Walczak - Rushmore Plaza Civic Center |

CelebrityAccess service has proved to be a great access for us and has helped us make connections in the music industry.
| I had been receiving emails from CelebrityAccess for about a year. I finally decided to really check into it and possibly sign up for the service. Scott Brill-Lehn was assigned to our firm's account, he was so helpful and showed me things that CelebrityAccess could do for us, that I might not have known otherwise. Scott has gone above and beyond for MLC PR, any time we have a question we can go right to him and get an answer and he always makes sure that we are happy with the results from CelebrityAccess. Thanks Scott for all your help, you are not only a great asset for MLC PR, but a great asset to the CelebrityAccess team.

CA pays for itself! As a subscriber and advertiser
| I have been a subscriber to CelebrityAccess since the very beginning of the service; finally, a wealth of very accurate information at your fingertips! Since also becoming an advertiser about a year ago we have found a whole new side of CelebrityAccess. Our results are simple to track and quite interesting: CA pays for itself!

I love it!
| I remember the old days, looking up agents and managers in the printed
guides which were invariably out of date. CA makes handling useless
requests much less of a time waster, and actual work easier and quicker. I
love it! | | Queenie Taylor - Queenie Taylor Events |
|
I find CelebrityAccess and Encore to be a valuable resource.
| I find it easy to access and maneuver through. My biggest problem is not
having enough time to go through all the updates and news items, but
listing headlines on the home page helps me hone in on those items I'm
immediately interested in knowing about. I save the Encore Newsletters to be able
to go back to past issues when I have time or need to refresh my memory.
| | Dana Stern, Golden Nugget |
|
The service has been extremely useful and a worthwhile investment.
| I was in the States recently and actually met with Scott Mantell in LA to
discuss opportunities for future tours that might include our properties
and I might not have made that contact without the info on your system.

|
I've enjoyed using the site
| I feel that the touring/booking companies that
have appropriate shows are contacting me via the site as well. So shows I
wouldn't necessarily think of come to my attention.
| | Kate Francis, President & Managing Director, The Orpheum Theatre |
|
Your site organization is quite user friendly.
| I find that the presentation, both in the Encore newsletter, as well as on site, is easy to navigate and visually interesting but not cluttered. So, in general, I am quite happy with the breadth, depth, and general quality of the information presented, as well as the graphical quality. | | Ken Lopez - USC Thornton School of Music |

It's been like a Bible to me and my company. Saves a lot of time and leg work.

CelebrityAccess can be as transformational for charities as it is for the entertainment industry.
| Following an email blast to select agents in NYC inviting them to participate as honorary judges in a middle school essay contest, a particularly senior executive was so taken by the experience that she arranged for a Broadway musical's national tour to benefit my charity. Celebrities give of their time and that comes with a cost. The executives that drive the industry have the passion, generosity, accessibility, connections, creativity, and capacity to envision and make big things happen for a worthy charity.
| | Jim Schaffer, Domus Foundation |
|
With the help of CelebrityAccess (CA) we signed over 90,000 artists and countless record labels.
| CA helped me find and secure booking contracts for various artists with major companies such as CAA and Monterey Peninsula. I also secured an incredible team for my sideshow in Europe, Primary Talent Agency, Noble PR and Craig Wylie of the Mamma's Group all through CA. Thanks to CA, we're
touring Europe this summer. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to tour the world and to succeed in the entertainment business but most importantly I wanted to do it independently. Even though I pay your membership fees I feel I still owe you and one day will figure a way to repay you...
