Team & staffing
Run a roster, not a spreadsheet.
Set up every DJ, sax player and engineer on your books as a user, assign the right people to each event, and let Gig Nest handle the who's-free-when — from one-off subcontractors to a full agency roster.
Office staff are always free
You only pay for DJs. Bookers, assistants and accounts staff get their own logins at no cost, on every plan. Team includes three DJs, with extra DJs at £3.50 a month each; Agency is unlimited.
Their own calendar, synced both ways
Each person connects their own Google or Outlook calendar, so their gigs land in it and their busy times come back — before anyone books them.
Multiple users on one account
Add your whole team with their skills, rates and calendar colour. Anyone with a login gets their own portal — your business data stays yours, they see what they need.
Assign team members to events
Put one DJ or a whole crew on any event in two clicks. Gig Nest warns you before you assign if someone's already booked that day or has marked themselves unavailable — so clashes never make it out the door.
AI staffing suggestions
Tell it the gig; it ranks your roster by skills, availability and fit, and suggests who to send — with a one-click assign.
A portal for every team member
Send a one-click login invite and your staff set their own password. Inside, they see their gigs, confirm or decline, read venue notes and the running order, set the days they're unavailable, and even subscribe their gigs to their own phone calendar.
Alerts the moment they're booked
Assign someone and they're emailed and pushed the gig details straight away, then sent their full brief — venue, timings, set notes, load-in — the day before. Nobody turns up to the wrong door.
Time off, asked and answered
Your team ask for time off from their phone. You approve or decline in one tap, and approved days keep them off the rota.
Fees, expenses and profit per event
Record each person's fee against the event and see true profit — price minus team fees minus expenses — at a glance.
One-click gig-ready briefings
When everything's locked in, hit Mark gig ready and the whole assigned crew gets an instant summary email — date, time, venue, their role and the equipment to bring — plus a push to their phone.
Show the crew their kit list
Attach items from your equipment register to a gig and every assigned staff member sees exactly what to bring, by name and reference, in their portal.
