SIMPLIFY EVENT STAFFING
Events are already hard. A million moving pieces must come together in perfect concert (see what we did there?) to produce the perfect event. When your event requires a large workforce to be successful, that’s yet another layer of complexity that distracts you from what really matters: making sure your event is a hit.
With one tool, you can maintain your roster of staff, track their time on site, communicate last-minute changes, pay them promptly and more. Your staff will thank you.
CUT THE CHAOS
Event production and logistics are complicated. The success of your event is threatened at every turn. Last-minute pressure leads to last-minute costs and compromises. Cut through the chaos with a comprehensive event staffing, scheduling and communication software that automates the busywork and frees you up to focus on the main event.
Send Schedule to Crew
The most stressful part of event planning is crew scheduling. You have to find the right people for the job, make sure they’re available, and then hope that everything works out on the day of the event. With LASSO, you can easily plan your entire event roster with just a few clicks.
Trying to stay in touch with your crew can be difficult and frustrating. Especially when you’re managing a crew the size of a football team. Quickly send important messages, notifications, and announcements—no matter what time it is or which device they happen to be using.

"LASSO has been a big win for us. We’re doing more and are able to fill shifts faster. We used to spend hours emailing staff, updating spreadsheets, and keying in data. With LASSO, this is automated. So not only does it save time, the data we have now is more thorough, useful, and timely."
Onboarding new hires can be a serious pain. You’ve got to track down paperwork, get it filled out, and make sure that you’re storing everything in a safe place. Then there’s the risk that something might fall through the cracks. We hate cracks, so we give your new staff the ability to fill out new hire docs quickly, easily, and digitally.
No more manual timesheets and cost surprises. Your crew can punch in/out or your crew supervisor can do so on their behalf, ensuring they are paid the hourly or daily rate you agreed on. Did we mention you can accommodate whatever complex pay rules you need to follow?
Knowing your total cost, including travel, before you hire your crew, is a powerful insight. Booking within the platform shows you costs, saves unused tickets, provides 24/7 concierge support for travelers, and gives you agency-negotiated rates on flights and hotels. Automatically share crew itineraries and manage expenses like per diems all within one central platform.
This isn’t just an easier and faster way to pay your live event staff. This tool is built specifically for the live events industry and all of our payroll quirks. We have seen it all when it comes to those complicated pay rules. Stop spending hours on payroll each week with LASSO’s event payroll.
Get access to a high-quality, nationwide freelancer pool that you can rely on when your business needs a hand. Our AV talent is vetted, compliant, and available in key markets nationwide, so you’re never caught short on crew.
We are a great fit for anyone managing the logistics of a large event workforce. That includes everyone from boutique production companies to security companies who need to staff a university venue for football season. With LASSO, you’re able to hire, communicate, clock in, and pay out en masse, leaving you time to focus on what really matters: making sure your people are set up for success.
The biggest difference is we were made specifically for the event industry. That means you can schedule around an event with a mobile temporary workforce. Let’s face it: Scheduling the same people to work in the same location, doing the same job, week after week, isn’t as fun as solving for all of the nuances within the event industry. This frees you up to focus on the real work.
