Switching AV Supplier in Manchester
Been let down by your AV supplier? Switching mid-cycle is doable.
It happens more often than you would think. Late-stage missed details, sudden price changes, a quote that does not match the invoice. Here is how a clean switch usually runs.
The signs it is time to switch
- The quote keeps growing every email
- Different person answering each call
- Vague answers when you ask about specific kit, operator, recording
- No walkthrough offered before quoting
- The first event went badly and they will not own it
How a clean switch runs
- You call. Tell us the date, venue, format. Steven answers his own enquiries.
- We check the kit calendar in real time. Honest answer whether we can step in, that day.
- Walkthrough within 48 hours. Even tighter for events inside a fortnight.
- Written quote, scoped to your room and date.
- You sign, we lock the date. Same operator on every call from there.
What a clean switch looks like
When the previous AV supplier let you down
This page is here because switching supplier mid-cycle is not a small ask.
A short look at what onboarding to ST | AV looks like end to end: recce, kit spec, day-of run, and one operator across the day.
What we will NOT do
- Bad-mouth your previous supplier. We do not know their side of the story.
- Promise we can fix it if the event is in three days and the kit calendar is full.
- Price-gouge because you are stuck. Quote is the same as if you came to us first.
