Ally's Air Extremely Rude & Unprofessional When Seeking Quote Dalton Pennsylvania
I contacted this company to receive a quote for a character appearance for a fundraiser for a large, nationally known non-profit organization fundraiser related to cancer research funding. I contacted someone from the company via Facebook as their website was not working. The response I got for 2 characters to appear at a 3 hour event was $700. I thanked the responder for the quote but let them know it was out of my budget and would not make financial sense from an ROI standpoint. The responder then proceeded to ask me about my budget to which I replied I would like to pay no more than $100 per character. The response I received was as follows:
"I see, so you want a princess to work in heat for three hours for $100, after make up, hair style, our candy we give or offer each child they pose for.. ? So like $30 an hour.. I'm sorry that's just not a realistic payment for time required. But ty for thinking of us.
And then taxes paid on that.. We'd end up with 0.. and with an hour away we'd actually end up in the negative...
I think you should ask a middle school child and rent the costume... oh no the costume is $65 rental... hmmm"
This is extremely rude and unprofessional. I would not recommend contacting this company as it is clearly run but a greedy idiot who can't type let alone donate time to a worthy cause. A simple, we cannot accomodate that budget would have sufficed. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.

I'm not sure whom you spoke with but you did not contact my company. I donate to churches, police departments, senior centers, special needs camps, good news camps, school programs, YMCA programs, cancer fundraisers, per fundraisers, so I'm thinking you may have contacted someone else. I'm very sorry for your issues. My princess rates are $175 per hour if you ever need my services.
