It’s a party all day in RVA! Join us on the east coast as we head to Richmond, Virginia to chat with Brittany Herndon, Director of Sales & Marketing for Altria Theater and Dominion Energy Center – both managed by ASM Global. Brittany, who also serves as Regional Marketing Director for ASM Global's theatrical venues, tells us about Richmond and what it’s like working at gorgeous, historic theaters. With multiple Pollstar Award nominations, learn what it is like working for the number one theater in Virginia, what a typical theater season looks like, and how marketing for a theater varies from marketing at larger venues. We dig into tips for working with and building trust with promoters - how to challenge and suggest alternatives to requests, fleshing out plans to make them more valuable, and knowing when the juice is worth the squeeze. Brittany walks us through her career adventure, from attending Sweet Briar College with an interest in being a film composer to various marketing jobs to finally landing in the live event industry, and various guidance she received along the way. From fun stories to career advice - enjoy this great episode that may inspire you to visit a historic theater, support your local parks department, and pursue your next great opportunity.
