I am not in cabarete I am in Manhattan. Marketing, sales, production and everything involved is not an issue. We have thrown many events. Getting people out there will not be an issue either. The only issue is finding venues and resorts/hotels to participate.
We help host Winter Music Conference/Electric Zoo and many other major house music events such as cruises and so forth.
I need a team player in cabarete willing to find these venues and host.
Promoting The WMC and South Beach could not be more different than a Music Festival in Cabarete. As much as I'd like to see someone try something like this in Cabarete, my advise would be that Punta Cana is the only place it would be viable on a large scale... 30,000+ hotel rooms vs. less than 1000...and it would likely take several years to become "successful"...and that's with throwing a ton of money and U.S./European promotion at it.
Also..few forms of sales, marketing and promotion (and production for that matter) that you are used to will work here...it's a totally different market than anywhere in the US (except maybe Washington Heights! :bunny
All that being said...you, or someone from your company, should come to Cabarete and Punta Cana during Semana Santa (Easter Week) and observe things...these are the two events that are similar to what you're talking about...over the last few years, Cabarete has gotten smaller and PC has gotten bigger...
