442. How much should you pay another balloon pro?
They said yes... now how much do you pay them? If you've ever DMed a balloon friend for help on a big job and then panicked in your group chat about what's fair, this episode is for you. I'm sharing real numbers and the one change I'm making to how I hire help from now on.
Hiring another balloon pro is one of the biggest mysteries in our industry. There's no standard day rate, no contract and usually just a handshake agreement. So in this free preview of the private feed On The Bright Side, I'm getting transparent about when I bring in subcontractors, how I find the right people and what I actually pay.
I share stories from bringing in an expert rigger, inflating a 16 foot organic wall on site and the job where I wish I'd leaned on my crew more. I hope these experiences help make the process feel less mysterious.
