Reduce your number of tabs: The Power of One Unified System

We explore, how you can reduce the number of tabs you have open when organising events.

In the world of live music event management, organisation is everything. Whether you’re a venue manager, artist, or event organiser, you’ve probably found yourself juggling multiple tools like Google Drive, Email, Messenger, and spreadsheets just to stay on top of your tasks. Sound familiar? It’s a chaotic process that wastes time, introduces errors, and leaves you constantly switching between platforms.

That’s where Stage Portal steps in—a solution designed to centralise and automate every part of live event management, saving you valuable time and reducing the chances of something slipping through the cracks. In this post, we’ll explore why Stage Portal is the smarter alternative to using multiple apps and how it can completely transform your workflow.

The Problem with Using Multiple Platforms

When organising events, you typically need to handle booking artists, communicating with crew, coordinating schedules, managing riders, and keeping track of technical requirements. For most people, this means a constant shuffle between:

Google Drive

for sharing documents and schedules.

Email

for booking confirmations and sending information.

Messenger apps

like WhatsApp for last-minute updates.

Spreadsheets

for tracking equipment and logistics.

While each of these tools works individually, using them together can be a logistical nightmare. Here’s why:

Scattered Information:

Information gets lost in long email chains, endless chat threads, or buried in shared drives.

Lack of Coordination:

Switching between platforms means you’re more likely to miss important updates or make mistakes due to outdated information.

Time-Consuming:

Constantly toggling between different apps wastes hours of valuable time that could be better spent on more important tasks.

Stage Portal: The All-in-One Solution

Stage Portal solves these problems by bringing everything you need into a single, easy-to-use platform. With Stage Portal, you no longer have to rely on multiple apps to get things done. Here’s how it works:

Centralised Information:

All event details—from artist riders and technical requirements to crew schedules—are stored in one place. No more hunting for files or sifting through emails.

Seamless Communication:

Instead of jumping between email and messaging apps, Stage Portal offers built-in communication tools that allow everyone—venue managers, artists, production crew—to stay on the same page.

Automated Processes:

Tasks like collating technical requirements, producing picking lists, and collating guest lists are automated. What used to take hours now takes minutes.

Key Benefits of Using One System

By consolidating all your tools into Stage Portal, you unlock significant advantages:

Time Savings:

Users report saving anywhere from 2 to 36 hours of work per event by reducing the need to manually manage details across multiple platforms.

Improved Accuracy:

With all your data in one place, you minimise the chances of errors or miscommunications. Everyone works with up-to-date, standardised information.

Streamlined Workflow:

Instead of juggling multiple apps, you get a smooth, uninterrupted workflow that allows you to focus on delivering exceptional live events rather than managing logistics.

Better Collaboration:

All stakeholders—whether artists, venues, or production teams—can access the same platform. This ensures everyone is aligned and reduces the chances of last-minute surprises.

Instant Updates

Any changes made on Stage Portal are reflected instantly for everyone involved. No need to worry about whether your team is working with the latest version of a rider or schedule.
