As the CEO of a Nashville-based event production company, our founder Clay Sifford saw his team struggle to manage the manual processes of crew scheduling and event staff management. Manual processes left way too much room for error. Last-minute scrambling to fill positions cost unnecessary money. Spreadsheets and phone calls took up valuable time. It all boiled down to efficiency. The event industry had been underserved with good software solutions, and it was time to change that.
ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH
It was time for a change
AN INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC SOLUTION
Made for the industry, by the industry
Efficient workforce management solutions existed in other industries, but nothing that was tailored specifically for live events. Let’s face it, managing event-based schedules and freelance labor is complex. And it required a unique solution.
Clay knew the best way to build a solution would be to lean on other event industry leaders and together, create something for the entire events community. A large part of that creation was having honest and meaningful conversations. Clay built a team and set out to hear from the industry about what stood in their way and what they needed in a solution. We interviewed over 350 industry professionals before a single line of code was written, and with that foundation in place, we began to build LASSO.
EVERY DETAIL MATTERS
Visibility, confidence, and connection
As a result of Clay’s mission to build an inclusive workforce management tool for everyone in the live events industry, LASSO was born.
Today, LASSO simplifies crew scheduling using easy to use software – putting control back in the hands of industry leaders. Every aspect of production labor management is streamlined in one platform.
