TIPS FROM YOUR TRUSTED AGENCY

1. What is their niche?

Not all staffing agencies are created equal—some excel at corporate events, others shine at weddings or nightlife. At Top Shelf Staffing we specialize in corporate events, galas, private dinners, gallery openings, theme parties, and more!

2. Do they have trained professionals?

Ask about their vetting process, certifications, and training. There are talented staff for all types of settings.

3. What’s their Communication?

Great agencies respond quickly, listen carefully, and offer guidance, not just they give you the right person for the right role.

4. What is their Backup Plan?

Life happens! A great agency always have a system in place for last-minute replacements or emergencies.

5. Are their Staff Insured?

A reliable agency protects their team and you with liability coverage and proper worker classification.

6. Request a Tailored Proposal

A good agency doesn’t give cookie cutter pricing. They align with your budget, needs, and guest count.

7. Check for Cultural Fit

Your event may have a specific vibe. Is your event professional, luxury, or festive? Make sure the agency matches your tone.
