Bad experiences with staffing agencies?

Most exhibitors know at least one of these three stories:

Quantity over quality

You receive 20 anonymous profiles — no briefing, no context. You have to filter them yourself.

Opaque pricing

60% margins, underpaid hostesses, no clear billing. You never know what actually happens.

Unprepared staff

The talent doesn't know your brand, your audience or your expectations. You only notice at the booth.

It doesn't have to be this way.

More than placement. End-to-end support.

ÉLANCE is a placement platform for independent event and trade fair professionals in Germany and across Europe. We do not employ staff. The contract runs directly between you and the talent.

We believe great staff doesn't come from a pile of anonymous profiles — it comes from a real conversation, a proper briefing and the right match. That's why we guide the entire process: from the first briefing call to the final invoice. Personal. Transparent.

Five steps. No hassle.

    Talent Briefing
