GigSalad Reviews

Don't purchase the upgrade packages. They promise you will be at the top of searches and you will get more leads but you're not at the top and your leads are the same as a free account. They do not give refunds (even if you ask within 24 hours of purchasing) and there is no free trial. It's just a waste of money and I feel scammed. The free version is fine.

I honestly didn't expect much when I signed on for GigSalad. But I have been blown away by not only the amount of gigs I have landed, but also the service I have received from GigSalad. They are always extremely helpful and friendly any time I run into an issue. I started out with the FREE account and within a week or two had already received multiple leads. In January I decided to go ahead and pay for the highest level of booking. Less than 6 months in and I have 19 bookings with venues I would not have had otherwise. Thanks GigSalad. An incredible service for performers!

Elvis Prince was the perfect Surprise for my dads 80th Birthday - everyone looked him and had a Great Time!

I am absolutely delighted with the bookings I have been getting through this site. I will continue using

I have really enjoyed using Gigsalad to book my gigs. I have gotten many more leads with it than I otherwise would have. It's simple to use, customizable, and the communication via text and email is super helpful. Highly recommend!

I didn't give it much thought and hope when I registered for a free account on GigSalad, thinking that it might be another platform like Thumbtack that will only get you leads (and fake leads) if you pay a lot of money. I was wrong, they actually much more user-friendly and vendor centric than Thumbtack! My experience with GigSalad has been good so far and I got booked four times within just two months. (Considering how busy I am with teaching).

Rick (Elvis) was outstanding at my sister's birthday surprise appearance. She couldn't stop laughing and crying at the same time. We'll all remember his performance forever and how happy it made her.
Thanks Rick!

If you're not using Gigsalad to get booked for events, I'd have to ask why? I've been working with them for over 10 years and can only say how glad I am that I do! There are many ways to try and get booked but in my opinion, nothing is as far-reaching. I've used many ways to advertise and this is the most effective way to get more leads. I'm also very happy with the fee structure. Very fair and worth the cost.

The website makes suggestions at times during the process to communicate and to touch base with potential customers as well as with already booked customers. As a solitary kind of guy, this really helps me to be proactive on my approach.

As a full-time musician gigsalad is Godsend for me.
I joined gigsalad in 2015 as full-membership.
Joining gigsalad is one of my best
Decision.
Thanks for awesome job.

As a professional Santa, this is the first year I have used any kind of booking service besides myself. GigSalad was highly recommended by many of my "Brothers in Red" It made it easier to reach beyond my local area without spending a lot of money on untested advertising.The online calendar made it much easier to stay organized and allows blocking out unavailable times as well as letting one add in self done bookings. GigSalad provides leads but doesn't commit to a booking. That is up to me entirely. I stay in control.

Tidewater Santa was our guest at the Parkside at Bennetts Creek HOA Breakfast with Santa. He was fun, attentive and worked well with the children. We could not have asked for a better booking or experience.

I was really disappointed with my last attempt to find a band for my event. The first person to respond to a quote request that gigsalad sent out tells me my budget is unrealistic and I should go ask to hire a high school band. This type of attitude or communication shouldn't be tolerated and is very discouraging. This was supposed to be just a quote.

I somehow stumbled across this platform. I'm a freelance entertainer and I've been trying different platforms to book local gigs. This website is awesome! It's really easy to use and gets a lot of traffic. I started off with the free site and got lots of hits and bookings. The beauty of it is they work with you to make sure you know when you have a lead And they even help you through the process of booking and closing out a gig. One of the great things I love about it as well is they ask your clients for reviews so you don't have to. The customer service is excellent as well. When I booked my first gig there was an issue with the payment getting processed to my bank account. They contacted me and worked with me to resolve the issue. I also like that they don't charge you for your leads but you pay after you get the booking. They take a cut of your booking which is fine with me. I would highly recommend this side to any performers out there seeking to book local gigs. It was a game changer for me. Very glad I found the site and can't wait to continue using it in the future.

Honest, Great app and very efficient! Use it to promote a business or to hire an act for your business or personal event..
