🚚
The Full-Time Operator

The Data-Driven Owner
You want to know: "Did last year's Oktoberfest make money after fuel, labor, and time?" Event Hunter closes the loop from discovery to real P&L.
Per-Event P&L Tracking
🌱
The New Operator
You don't have years of event data to know which festivals perform and which drain you. Event Hunter prices each event in dollars, which is the intel experienced operators took years to build.

“Add expected attendance to see what this pays.” No number invented to fill the gap.
02 — Take-Home Estimates
Which events are actually worth showing up for?
Every event carries an estimated take-home in dollars — after the vendor fee, the fuel, the food and the crew, priced against the trailer that would actually serve it. Not a rating out of 100. A number you can hold against your own floor.
→Take-home in dollars, not a score out of 100
