Budget estimate

$70,000 – $150,000

Based on typical hourly rates for temporary banquet staff ($18‑$30/hr) and an estimated average of 5 events per month with roughly 10 staff members each working 8 hours, monthly labor hours would be about 400 hrs. At an average blended rate of $20/hr, the monthly spend is ~ $8,000, yielding roughly $96,000 annually. Accounting for variability in event frequency, staffing levels, and higher rates for crew leaders or specialized bar staff, the contract could generate between $70,000 and $150,000 in total annual revenue.
