PartySlate operates as a digital platform focused on the event planning industry, connecting individuals and corporate clients with a curated network of event professionals, venues, and vendors. The company was established in 2015 by co-founders Julie Roth Novack and John Haro. Prior to launching the platform, Novack had a 20-year career in communications and digital marketing, culminating in her role as President of one of the largest digital agencies in Chicago, which provided her with a deep understanding of digital branding and client engagement. This background informed the creation of a platform designed to streamline the event planning process.
The business model centers on generating inspiration and facilitating connections for a wide range of events, including corporate gatherings, weddings, and other milestone celebrations. For users planning events, PartySlate offers a photo-centric experience, allowing them to browse extensive portfolios of real events to discover ideas and identify suitable vendors. The platform's core value proposition is to provide a high-quality, visual alternative to traditional search methods, enabling users to see the work of top event professionals and directly connect with them.
Revenue is primarily generated through a tiered subscription model for event professionals and venues who wish to be featured on the platform. These paid memberships provide vendors with enhanced visibility, including a dedicated profile page to showcase their work, lead generation tools, and analytics to track their profile's performance. By paying for a premium listing, vendors increase their exposure to a targeted audience of individuals and companies actively planning events. This creates a marketplace where planners find inspiration and verified professionals, while vendors gain a channel for marketing and client acquisition. The company has successfully raised capital to support its growth, including a noted $3 million funding round.
