Gretchen / Alice replied to the discussion 'What is the going rate for performances and other events?'"this is incredibly variable depending on the city. i never go lower than $50 an hour, but in small cities, that's the best i will get. rate goes up to $150/hr for bigger cities...and up and up.
just never go too low, or other hoopers will get…"
Moonshadow replied to the discussion 'What is the going rate for performances and other events?'"Yes, if you know how many people are expected to be there, then charge $1-$2 per person. If you don't know how many people are going to be there, I'd suggest charging at least $100 for the hour. Most performers will tell you…"
Bearclaw Manufacturing - Tedward replied to the discussion 'What is the going rate for performances and other events?'"I think the real answer is that you need to charge enough that you feel good about what you're getting but no so much that you lose more than half your potential customers. Here in LA, hoop shows range from $100 to $250 per half hour per…"

Nikki*Buddha Belly Hoops replied to the discussion 'What is the going rate for performances and other events?'"For whatever strange reason, I actually get more people to come to classes the more I charge. I was doing classes for a "$2 Donation" and nobody came, probably because I really made it sound cheap by setting the bar that low. When I…"

Jeni Parreno replied to the discussion 'HeLp!! Gaffer tape leaving marks!'"You can keep using your gaff tape. I have hardwood floors at home. Forget the Mr. Clean.
Grab a can of WD-40 and scrub those marks with a tennis ball. It works like a dream."
Meagan Wigemyr replied to the discussion 'HeLp!! Gaffer tape leaving marks!'"Thanks for your advice, I will try the magic eraser, and no longer use gaffer tape!

Mew replied to the discussion 'HeLp!! Gaffer tape leaving marks!'"There are 2 things I would try. First would be the Mr. Clean Magic eraser. I swear to god that thing is made of magic and rainbows. Gets anything off walls, and would probably take off those marks with no problem. This is my first…"

Hey Hoopers!I am a hoop teacher, and I make my own hoops. A few of my new ones are made with gaffer tape, which is causing a major problem with my rental space because it is leaving marks on the floor that are difficult to get off. Does anyone know how to get this off of floors without damaging the floor? I was told if this does not get resolved that they will cancel my program :( Hope someone can give me some advice! Thanks!See More
