Master Multi-Vendor Coordination

Cape Cod events require juggling numerous local vendors - from beachfront caterers to seasonal florists. Vendor management systems track availability, payments, performance ratings, and communication history in one place. Event planners using these systems report 50% fewer vendor mishaps and save 10 hours per event on coordination.

Rate consistently: Use standardized metrics to evaluate vendor performance across events.
