Hospitality FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers for mobile bar founders, beverage directors, and traveling mixologists.

Yes, absolutely. Our assistants use established industry beverage formulas (factoring in the standard 1 drink per guest per hour rule, 70/30 or 60/40 liquor to wine/beer ratios, and 16 1.5-oz pours per standard 750ml bottle). They can translate client guest counts into an itemized shopping list for Total Wine, BevMo, or local distributors down to ice and citrus counts.
No, absolutely not. Your dedicated project manager’s supervision, task assignment, quality control, and consolidated weekly updates are 100% free of charge. You strictly pay for the VA's actual working hours ($7/hr for Part-Time or $6/hr for Full-Time).
Yes. Our specialists are experienced with leading event CRMs. They monitor inbound requests, check your Google Calendar for date conflicts, dispatch custom cocktail package proposals, attach e-signature agreements, and follow up with reminder emails to secure deposit checks.
Unlike hiring solo freelancers on Upwork who leave you stranded right before Saturday weddings, Sagedoer provides seamless backup coverage. Your Project Manager documents your standard operating procedures (SOPs), templates, and pricing rules so a cross-trained internal specialist can step in immediately with zero downtime.
All Sagedoer staff are bound by strict Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). We advocate sharing credentials using 1Password or LastPass with encrypted access controls so your proprietary cocktail recipes, vendor agreements, and financial dashboards remain completely protected.
No lock-ins. All Sagedoer partnerships operate on flexible, month-to-month terms. You can scale hours up during your busiest summer/holiday season and scale down during the winter lull as needed.
