A company stays booked through outreach, marketing and sales. A subcontractor stays booked exactly the same way, against companies who are looking for staff rather than clients who are looking for a service. The mechanics do not change. Only the names on the list do.
| Company | State | Rate | A day | Shifts | Earned |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Production company ⛔ The highest rate on the list and the quietest lane on the list. That is the whole problem in one row. Day of coordinator | 17 days past | $45 | $540 | 4 | $2,160 |
| Catering company ⚠ Past its own cadence by eleven days. Nothing went wrong. Somebody else was easier to reach on the day they were staffing. Floor lead | 11 days past | $28 | $252 | 14 | $3,528 |
| Staffing agency, large The volume lane. Books weekly, pays on time, and fills the calendar whether or not anything else does. Service supervisor | On rhythm | $32 | $320 | 31 | $9,920 |
| Venue, in house events Quarterly rhythm with filler shifts between. Low effort to keep. Captain | On rhythm | $30 | $240 | 9 | $2,160 |
| Own company ⭐ Own work. Four times the agency floor lead rate for the same night, and the only lane where the margin stays in the house. Event lead | On rhythm | $80 | $800 | 6 | $4,800 |
State is measured against each company’s own rhythm. One that books quarterly is not quiet at six weeks. One that books weekly is quiet at three.
