Events and rental: Enquiry form for AV rental companies
An enquiry form for AV rental companies that asks for venue, audience, running order and available power, so the rental planner can put together a suitable package straight away.
What makes an enquiry complete for AV rental companies.
An enquiry to AV rental companies often starts with we need sound for Friday. What is actually needed depends on questions the client does not answer unprompted: how big is the room or site, how many people are coming, are there speakers, a band or just background music, is there a running order and what power is available. Whether the client collects or wants delivery with setup and a technician makes a big difference to quote and schedule. Without those details the rental planner calls back, builds a package on assumptions, or finds out on the day that there is one radio microphone too few.

From form to assessed enquiry.
Describe the event step by step
The form starts with the type of event and the venue, then asks more: indoors or outdoors, size of the space, expected audience, what is on the programme and who speaks or plays. The client can upload a running order or floor plan. Each question has a short note explaining why it matters.
Flag gaps in the enquiry
The system flags what is missing for a sound package: no power details for an outdoor event, no setup and strike times, unclear whether a band brings its own backline. The enquiry is marked incomplete with the specific questions listed, so the planner can call back with focus or the client receives a link to fill in the gaps.
Pass the enquiry to the planner
A complete enquiry arrives with event details, times, venue, chosen service level and attachments. The planner sees at once whether the requested date is free for the major items and whether a technician is available. From the enquiry they build the package and the quote without retyping anything.
Enquiries in one place, not the inbox.
Enquiries now arrive by email, phone, the contact form and sometimes from event agencies with their own running order format. The form replaces the general contact form and passes enquiries to the rental system or the planner's inbox. Clients' running orders and floor plans remain theirs and are used only for this event. Agencies that book often can keep sending their own format; the form then asks only for what is missing.
One general form or per event type
One general form is easy to maintain but asks a private customer with a birthday the same questions as an agency with a conference. A form that branches after the first choice asks only relevant questions. It takes more setting up but brings in more complete enquiries and fewer drop-outs on simple requests.
Client picks equipment or describes the need
Professionals know exactly which items they want and only need a list. Other clients cannot, and end up choosing too little or too much. A form with two entry points, one for those who build their own and one for those describing their event, serves both without slowing the professional or overloading the novice.
Venue details from client or venue
Clients often do not know what power there is, how the load-in route runs or whether there is a lift. The venue does. The form can ask for the venue contact so the planner checks directly. For venues you visit often, you can store those details and reuse them.

Read the storyWhich questions the form asks.
The enquiry form is ready with branches per event type, upload of running order and floor plan, flagging of missing details and handover to the rental planner. We walk through two enquiries from your own practice together before it goes live: a corporate presentation of the kind you often get, and an outdoor party where the client has no idea what power is available. Stored details per familiar venue and a dedicated entry point for agencies can be switched on later.
View pricingHosting and careGood to know.
Explore pricing and optionsWhat if the client cannot estimate the audience well?
They choose a range, such as a small, medium or large group, or describe the room. For the package, the size of the space often matters more than the exact headcount. The planner can propose a suitable package on that basis and adjust it later.
Can agencies keep using their own running order?
Yes. The form accepts the running order as an attachment and asks only for what is not in it, such as power, load-in route and service level. Agencies that book often get a dedicated entry point with their contact details already filled in.
How do we know whether the client collects or wants delivery?
That is a fixed choice in the form: collect and return, delivery and pickup, or delivery with setup and a technician. With collection, the form asks about the vehicle and who is coming. That choice determines which questions follow.
Can the form spot enquiries for the same date?
On entry the form checks whether the major items are free on that date according to the rental system. If something is already booked, the planner sees it on the enquiry. The client does not get an immediate refusal; the planner decides whether alternatives or cross-hire are possible.
