What’s the difference between Guest and Insider?

Guest is free — the Sunday tip, every public podcast, and 3 Ask the Industry questions a month. Insider unlocks unlimited Ask the Industry, full transcripts of every episode, the Insiders-only article library, and 5% off every live event.

How much does Insider cost?

$2.99/month, or $30/yr — that’s 2 months free. Same access either way. Cancel anytime, no questions asked.

How does Ask the Industry work?

Ask the Industry is our AI research tool. It reads everything on The EventTalk — tips, podcast transcripts, vendor profiles, and event recaps — and answers your planning questions with citations so you can dig deeper. You can even upload an inspiration photo and ask about it. Free Guests get 3 questions a month, Insiders get unlimited.

Can I submit a tip or story?

Yes — Guests and Insiders can both submit. We review every submission before it publishes, and credited stories may earn a future feature spot.

What do I get at live events?

Live EventTalks are in-person workshops, mixers, and panels for planners and vendors — ticketed openly to everyone, with Insiders getting 5% off. You’ll see them listed under Live Events when one’s on the calendar.

Are there ads or sponsored content?

No paid placements. Editorial only. If we mention a vendor by name, it’s because a planner brought them up — not because they paid to be there.

Can I cancel anytime?

Anytime, from your account page. You’ll keep Insider access through the end of the period you already paid for, then automatically roll back to Guest.

Do you offer team or group plans?

Not yet. If you’re an agency or vendor team interested in a group rate, drop us a note — we’re figuring it out.

Is my information private?

Yes. We never sell or share member data. The only thing in your account is what you put there — email, name, and what you’ve asked.

Will you raise prices?

Maybe, for new members down the road. Existing members stay locked in at the price they joined.
