Introduction

I am a very experienced bartender, and I am fully insured. I provide outstanding, friendly services in the Bay Area and beyond. I will provide you with references, a contract, and my proof of insurance. I mix a mean cocktail, and I have a gift for the gab, which comes from years of being a journalist. Strengths? Mixing great drinks for customers and charming them with my wit.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

To hire me, my requirements are: A minimum of $350 for 3 hours. $80 an hour for each additional hour. The price goes up for parties of 90+, when a second bartender is required. 25% deposit due when I am hired. *Gratuity appreciated. *Rates may change from January through March

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I determine if they need one bartender or two, what the menu will be, and what the venue is. I am more experienced than most bartenders, so I can advise on many topics. I explain what is in the Bartending Package: Bar Tools: Bottle openers, corkscrews, jiggers, muddlers, mixing glasses, pitchers, spill mats, towels, cleaning spray, and ice scoops. Equipment: Portable bar, coolers, tubs/buckets Materials: Cocktail napkins

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I worked in restaurants for 25 years. I am fully insured -- general liability and liquor liability. I have two certificates, a ServSafe Food Handler's Card and a TIPS Certification Card.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

25 years working at restaurants and catering companies.

What types of customers have you worked with?

Private parties, wedding coordinators, chefs, wedding venus, corporations, wineries, and more.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Hire me, if you want the best, most charming, professional bartender who will dazzle your guests. Plus I'm humble to boot.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

How many bartenders they want, what the drink menu will be, do they want my advice on some popular cocktails, and if a tip jar will be allowed.
