Why does your agency use "Band Code Numbers" instead of "Band Names"?
Unfortunately we found that our potential clients were using our directory as a free ride to find "Band Names" that they liked and approached the band directly to book them. Our bands are honest and were referring the client back to us where they could but sometimes the band did not always know where the referral came from. So to keep it fair for everyone, we decided to use “Band Code Numbers” instead of “Band Names”
Its been working fantastic since the change!
When do I find out the bands name?
Once you have made the booking and have paid the deposit to secure the band, we then send you the relevant paperwork which includes the bands name and contact details.
