Due diligence

What to Look For

Practical guidance from hundreds of real acquisition conversations.

Repeat Client Rate

  • Ask what percentage of events come from organizations that have booked in prior years.
  • Annual galas, corporate retreats, and school fundraisers that rebook every year function close to recurring revenue even when they show up as project income.
  • Ask for a simple list of organizations that have come back two or more years running — that tells you more about revenue durability than any summary statistic.
  • Corporate and nonprofit clients who rebook annually without being chased are the clearest sign of a durable business.

Venue and Vendor Partnerships

  • Preferred vendor agreements with major venues generate a steady flow of referrals that no amount of advertising replicates.
  • Ask which venues send referrals, what the formal relationship looks like, and how long each has been in place.
  • These partnerships carry over with the business and took years to develop, so ask the seller which ones are personal versus account-based.

Production Team Depth

  • Find out who handles vendor coordination, crew scheduling, and day-of logistics.
  • If a production manager runs events independently without the owner present, you can step in without becoming the operational bottleneck.
  • Ask about the production team's tenure and which decisions they make on their own — that's what makes this a business rather than a job.

Revenue Across the Calendar

  • Ask for monthly revenue for the last two years and look at how the business performs outside its busiest months.
  • A business earning from corporate events in fall, holiday parties in winter, spring fundraisers, and summer festivals is less exposed to a single season slowdown.
  • Year-round revenue reflects strong client diversity and is often a sign that the team actively develops programming rather than just taking inbound calls.

Event Planning Business Acquisition

The two things that matter most are repeat client rate and team independence. Ask what percentage of events come from organizations that have booked in prior years, and ask who runs event logistics when the owner isn't involved. A business where 70%+ of clients come back annually and a production manager handles operations is a very different acquisition from one built around the owner's personal relationships. Browse event planning businesses for sale on Rejigg.
Most event planning businesses sell for 2 to 7 times annual profit. Owner-operated businesses with seasonal or project-based revenue typically fall in the 2 to 4x SDE range. Businesses with a production team in place, strong repeat revenue, and documented venue partnerships can reach 4 to 7x EBITDA. Use the SBA loan calculator to see how different deal sizes look month to month.
Start with two years of monthly revenue so you can see the seasonal pattern and how the business fills quieter months. Then pull the repeat client list and ask for event counts by organization over three years. Visit the venue partners and understand what the referral relationship actually looks like. Talk to the production manager directly to see how they handle logistics without the owner. Those conversations will tell you whether this is a business or a job.
Good starting questions: What percentage of events come from organizations that booked in prior years? Which venue relationships send referrals and what do those agreements look like? Who handles vendor coordination and day-of logistics if the owner isn't there? What are the seasonal revenue patterns month by month? What owned equipment and staging assets come with the business? Are any key staff on employment contracts or could they leave after the sale?
Rejigg lists event companies that have been individually sourced and vetted. You can browse event planning businesses for sale on Rejigg and connect directly with owners. Listings include financial details and client data so you can evaluate fit before the first conversation.
Buyers expect some seasonal variation in event companies. What matters is how the business fills slower months and whether revenue is spread across different client types. Ask for monthly financials for at least two years and look at how February or July compare to peak months. A business doing meaningful revenue through all four seasons, even if the volumes vary, is a much more comfortable acquisition than one entirely dependent on a single quarter.
In most successful event company acquisitions, the production team, key freelancers, and venue partnerships do carry over because the new owner's first priority is keeping existing relationships intact. The most reassuring thing a seller can show is that those relationships belong to the business rather than to the owner personally. Producers and coordinators who have managed client relationships for years, and venue managers who know your business by name, are the signals to look for.
