When does it make sense for your business to rent audio visual equipment vs buying it?
Let’s explore five questions that can help you better evaluate this:
Does your staff have the time to research, purchase, get trained on, maintain and store your technology?
What is the total cost of ownership? On top of the purchase price, you need to account for accessories purchases, supplies and insurance. For example, the average cost of a replacement projector bulb is hundreds of dollars.
What about the cost of shipping to and from various locations.
What are the benefits of renting?
If you decide renting is for you, examine the things you need to look at when picking an audio visual partner.
There are countless advantages to renting AV equipment over buying it. The main ones are: it can save you money, storage space, it opens you to a vast selection of products and most importantly it takes the headache out of planning and organizing the AV portion of your event. In this post we’ll expand on those reasons and why renting AV equipment can be more cost effective than buying it.
Renting = Saving
AV products such as projectors, monitors, speakers, lighting and staging are extremely expensive to purchase and maintain. Investing in the latest AV technology is a serious business. That is why, if you are on a budget, you should consider renting instead. Why pay thousands for event monitors only to have them sit in storage, gathering dust, largely unused? If you have an event coming and don't envision using the technology on a monthly basis renting is your best bet. Hiring will save you money and it will also save space, especially if you are dealing with bulky equipment that takes up a lot of room, such as a sound system, video wall, or stage. We also offer tremendous cost savings on reoccurring rental packages.
