Testimonials
As the owner of a fledgling artist management and booking agency, joining STEP has proved invaluable. I have begun to establish not only great friendships but also an incredible network of experts and professionals with experience in every aspect of talent buying, production and event management. Thanks to STEP, my business is growing and I’m one phone call away from the answer to any question I could ask.
Mark Grossman - AustinMusicWorks
I have been afforded the opportunity to Develop working relationships, Increase bookings since I joined and More importantly, I now value the friendships that I share with many members of STEP. I would encourage any professional in our industry to consider joining this association.
Dave Tapley – Talent Bookings USA
I have been a STEP member for about 5 or 6 years now. I joined STEP originally for the networking. Since being with STEP I’ve made a lot of good friends in the business and have been able to share a lot of stories (good and bad) with other agencies. I highly recommend STEP if you like to keep informed.

“STEP has proven to be a great resource for us in buying and selling entertainment. The best benefit though is being able to network with a group of our peers, sharing industry standards and even fighting for a common cause- like lower taxes!!! “
