Caribbean Corporate Training Workshops - Executive Team Building

BOOKING CARIBBEAN IMPROV

THEY improv provides improv comedy, game shows, and murder mystery dinners for entertainment options for their clients throughout the Caribbean.

Because we often cross borders and are a US based company, this raises questions. We created this page to try to help explain the process.

You will be contracting with a US entity for the purpose of the event, and then we will be hiring local contractors to perform the actual event. That is a separate transaction from your hiring our group. There are some circumstances that we might use personnel that are not local. This may need some documentation and other procedures for the production. If your company has the means to assist in the process, it could reduce the cost to your company. Just let us know.

For US territories, Embassies and bases, we would most likely use an American cast for your event. While this makes travel more of an issue, documentation and security issues go away. We have worked with all branches of the military and are registered for the System for Award Management (SAMs) Database. This makes working with our group much easier.

We understand the cultural differences between the US and the countries that we may engage in for performing either a show or a team building event. We will consult with you, the client, on your concerns about content and work to make sure that your concerns are addressed and taken care of. We greatly respect all faiths and have every intention of operating within the bounds of propriety. If you are concerned, please simply ask.

Operating at 50-50

We operate as a 50/50 entity. Due to the international nature of the transaction, trying to collect after the fact is made very difficult, and is not a possibility. We have a sterling reputation. The damage to our reputation for not performing and then attempting to keep the money, would be far greater than our fee would be worth.

Deposit of 50% at Time of Contracting

The first half is due with the contract. We can accommodate your needs for most currencies though we will have to adjust to allow the conversion to one of our more standard currencies. This can include the US Dollar, Euro, Canadian Dollar or British Pound. We can handle most electronic transactions or others as you prefer.

Final Payment 15 Days Prior to Event

Similarly, the final payment is due 15 days prior to an event. If you cancel an event with less than 72 hours warning, the full payment is considered due, whether this payment has already been paid or not. Remember, there are very real expenses that we undertake to make your event happen that can not be recouped. We try to be as accommodating as we can and often will adjust these terms in favor of our clients, but that is through our largess.

The best way to find out about your Caribbean corporate event, banquet or private party is to simply reach out and talk to us. Every corporate event and private party is custom tailored to the group we are working for. Thus a quick conversation helps to get you set up and make your vision for your corporate event, banquet, or private party a reality. Whether a murder mystery dinner, a family or company game show, an improv comedy performance, team building, or other efforts, contact us using the information below. We'll be happy to answer any questions you might have.

PICK A LANGUAGE

We Can Literally Speak Your Language

ENGLISH

Most of THEY improv events are conducted in English. English tends to be the shared common language of our clients, though we may need to make some adjustments for varying cultures and backgrounds. Pop culture, for instance, might not be as shared. We will be happy to discuss your needs and adjust.

BILINGUAL

We can operate corporate events in a bilingual environment. Let us know your concerns and we will adapt our approach to address your needs in our program. We will go over rates and fees and determine the best approach.

ALTERNATIVE LANGUAGES

We do have facilitators from all over the world who can operate for your group remotely or in-person in a variety of languages. Simply reach out and ask and we can work on developing options for your needs.

When booking THEY improv for your event in the Caribbean, the following process is generally followed regardless of which country you are using for your event:

DISCUSSION - We discuss your event to understand the basics and to make suggestions to clarify. To begin, you should provide an idea of the date for the event, what country and city you will be holding the event, the venue, and the size of your group. We will then provide a rough assessment of technical concerns such as sound and lighting. We will also ask about your desired results and challenges you are facing.
AN ESTIMATE - A rough cost-assessment with options will be provided. This may be in the form of a simple email outlining options for a potential event along with the costs associated with each option. These will be estimates. They may change over time as the event date approaches. They may also change if you move the date or alter other details for your event.
PROPOSAL - Once we receive feedback and if you choose to move forward, a proposal will be supplied. This will include details in contract form allowing for the contracting of our services. The cover letter will include the time-frame allotted for client approval of the contract. A signed contract is to be returned with a 50% deposit for the event. An accommodation is made for our governmental clients according to appropriate appropriations policies. Depending on the form of event, a portion or all of the deposit may be refundable up to 30 days prior to the event date.
DOCUMENTATION - If you need additional documentation or other clarifications, we work with your staff or vendors to determine the needs and provide the required documentation.
CLARIFICATIONS - Upon receipt of contract and deposit, a conversation about event details will occur allowing clarification of any outstanding issues.
FINAL PAYMENT - The final payment is due two-weeks prior to the event. Again, for government agencies, universities, and other large organizations, we work within your AP policies as best as can be accommodated. All expenses for the event are required to be paid in advance when possible.
FINAL CONVERSATION - Before the event, a final conversation will occur making certain that all details are in place and that any last-minute needs are attended to. This will include a call-time, which is a set period of time prior to the beginning of the event for our staff to arrive. This allows for any emergency contingency issues to be resolved (vehicular difficulties, illness, etc.). This conversation will usually include the facilitators for your event to allow you to become familiar and exchange contact information.
FOLLOW-UP - We try not to overburden you with surveys, etc. after the fact. We are always open to discuss your event afterwards to make certain that you were happy. We work hard to make certain you were satisfied with the results while not wanting to harm the results making the follow-up burdensome.
