Getting Started Step 4: Working with Your Program Manager

Once your passengers start registering, your tour is a “go!” You’ll be assigned your very own Encore Program Manager who will be there with you every step of the way during your tour planning process.

About Our Program Managers 

In conjunction with our Operations team, your Program Manager’s job is to work on every aspect of your tour so you can focus on the music! They’ll touch base with you when your hotels, sightseeing activities, venues, and flights are confirmed. Their top priority is to make sure your performances are planned to perfection. They’ll work with you and with your venues to ensure your ensemble has the appropriate repertoire, stage layout, instrument rentals and transportation, publicity materials, piano/keyboard type, scheduled rehearsal times, concert attire, and more. They will also be there to help guide you through Encore’s product and answer any Encore-specific questions you might have.

Phew – that’s a lot for one person! That’s why you have two team members dedicated to your tour at all times. While your Program Manager is off working on the logistical details, your Encore Tour Consultant will be there to help you craft any revisions to your itinerary or tour prices and will help make sure you are on track with your recruiting goals!

Getting Started

As soon as your Program Manager is assigned, they will contact you to get started. They’ll review your tour itinerary with you and provide a general timeline of the planning process. You’ll be equipped with their contact information for any questions you may have and then they’ll get to work!

Comprehensive Tour Planning

Your Encore Program Manager, in collaboration with your Tour Consultant, takes on the monumental task of meticulously planning every aspect of your tour. This includes not just booking hotels, flights, sightseeing activities, and venues but also delving into the specifics that make a performance tour special. They ensure that each venue is matched perfectly with your ensemble’s repertoire and performance needs.

In essence, Encore Program Managers embody the company’s commitment to delivering exceptional musical tour experiences. Their role is instrumental in ensuring that every logistical detail is polished to perfection, allowing you to concentrate on the music and the transformative experiences that lie ahead. With a dedicated Program Manager and Tour Consultant by your side, you’re assured of a journey that is as seamless as it is spectacular.
