The difference between a vendor relationship and an advisor relationship is simple: one of them leaves you with answers, and one of them leaves you dependent on the next call. AVaStar clients walk away from every engagement understanding their AV program well enough to manage it, evaluate it, and defend it to whoever is asking.

We translate AV proposals and vendor agreements into plain language so you know exactly what you're signing and what you should be paying.

Every recommendation we make is based entirely on what's right for your program, because we have no equipment to sell, no crews to staff, and no vendor relationships to protect.

From equipment purchases to vendor selection to staffing, we give you the structure to evaluate AV decisions confidently instead of defaulting to whoever is in the room.

On event day, you have someone who knows AV standing next to you, helping you coordinate with crews and vendors and keeping the decisions where they belong, with you.
You're responsible for the AV at every event you run. But unless you came up through the technical side of the industry, you're making those decisions without a reliable way to evaluate what you're being told, what you're being charged, or whether the vendor sitting across the table is steering you right.
The proposals all look the same. The vendors all say the same things. And every conversation ends with someone asking you to sign something.
AVaStar works with meeting planners as an independent advisor, with no equipment to sell and no production arm to feed. We help you read proposals, evaluate vendors, and show up to every event knowing you made the right calls. That's the whole job.
You're responsible for an AV program you didn't build, running on equipment you didn't spec, managed by a vendor you didn't choose, or staffed by a team figuring it out as they go. And every time a client asks a technical question or ownership asks for a number, you're relying on whoever is handling your AV to give you a straight answer.
Your vendor or your team isn't wrong to have their own limitations. But those limitations and your clients' expectations are not always the same thing.
AVaStar works with hotels and conference centers as an independent advisor, with no vendor contracts to protect and no equipment to move. We help you understand what you have, what it's costing you, and what to do about it. That's the whole job.

We'll show you how AVaStar fits into your workflow.
