Getting it right.

At Adlib, we pride ourselves on providing a seamless and stress-free rental experience. Our process ensures that every detail is taken care of, from the initial enquiry to event execution.

1.

Your Initial Enquiry

When you express interest in hosting an event, we're here to listen and assist. Our team values open communication and aims to provide a friendly and helpful response to every enquiry.

2.

Gathering Detailed Requirements

Our Account Manager will take the time to understand your specific event needs. We capture every detail accurately through email, phone calls or a meeting online or in person.

3.

Quoting and Iterations

We provide an initial quote and revise it based on your requested changes. Our transparent pricing respects your budget while delivering an exceptional event experience.

Logistics and Coordination

We liaise with the venue to ensure the event setup meets their specifications. Our attention to detail provides a flawless event environment.

Delivery

Prior to the event, we finalise agreements, assign technical resources, organise content and schedules, and conduct crew briefings to ensure the event runs smoothly. After the event, we’ll handle any necessary post-event activities.

“The MAC Ultra range is simply incredible. The light output is beyond anything I have used before in this size of moving head. The MAC Ultras allowed me to deliver a field-of-play lux level that was insanely bright and flat for both athlete and the camera. Using the MAC Ultra in the Sports Presentation sections, the Performances and Washes created looks that became the visual of the event worldwide.”
