FAQs for Planners

Absolutely! We want you to look at planning with Maryoku as an investment. Each event is a stepping stone towards building your company brand – whether internally, for your employees, or externally, with partners and customers. With that in mind, we've made sure you can revisit your previous event information to assess engagement and cost trends. It's all at your fingertips: your Maryoku dashboard will feature everything you need, including a page for setting and tracking event goals, as well as access to all previous event information.

Of course! We cater to every type of event planner. Maryoku is here to help each of you, whether you're an old hand at planning, or a complete newbie, we've got you covered. Maryoku allows you to create and adjust assets (tools, timeline, and budget) as needed, or simply use our templates. Whichever you prefer, you can always reconsider and choose the other option at any time. If you've begun the process flying solo and find you need a helping hand, we're happy to assist and take the lead. If you begin the process with us and see you're getting the hang of it, we're happy to let you spread your wings. You hold the magic wand – consider us your sorcerer's apprentice.

Your review, your choice. When you rank or review a vendor, you'll be given the option to mention your company's name, indicate your full details, or remain totally anonymous. Regardless, all reviews are published – we want to provide our customers with all the feedback, to make the best choices.

No problem. We're here to help you. Every asset and suggestion can be changed; you can request adjustments or a completely new version. We're totally flexible and our ideas are limitless – we'll keep working until you're fully satisfied. And the good news is, there's no extra charge for making changes. We just want you to be happy.

We understand that sometimes it takes a team to plan an event. So, we've incorporated tools within the Maryoku platform to let you invite anyone you'd like: get that "ok", ask for suggestions, or just run your ideas by a friend. And, if you need some extra help, you can also invite people to share the burden and divide the job – we're all for doing whatever you need to make planning your event as easy as possible. After all, we want to help you plan many more successful events.

Maryoku is here to assist and protect you. Every vendor is paid through us: you pay Maryoku and we hold on to the money until your event has been successfully completed. This way, the vendor is assured of being paid on time, and you're assured that, in the event anything goes wrong, we will act as your trustee, holding on to the money until the resolution process has been concluded. That being said, please note that Maryoku is not in any way liable for any wrongdoing, problem, damage, injury, or malfunction caused by a vendor.

If a vendor never showed up, or the services rendered were not what was agreed upon in the contract, you can open a reimbursement request with us via email or phone. At that time, payment to the vendor will be put on hold while we fully investigate your claim, and until the resolution process has concluded. Click here to read more about our refund policy.

Life is unpredictable. We get that. Even the best laid plans can be sidelined by unforeseen circumstances. If you have to cancel your event, we will make every effort to find another planner who would like to use the vendors you have booked on the same date as your event. If we are successful, your cancellation fee will be reduced, the vendors will not lose their bookings, and the planner taking over your date will benefit from reduced fees. A definite win-win situation. However, if we're not able to book a replacement event on that day, a cancellation fee will be deducted from the money you have paid, and you will be refunded the remainder. Click here to learn more about our cancellation policy.

Because we are committed to providing you with the best there is, we only feature top-notch vendors who have come highly recommended from professional event planners. We rely on the pros' first-hand experience: if they were happy, then we're confident you'll be happy too. On the other hand, if vendors receive mediocre reviews (3 stars or less) for more than two events, we remove them from our site and do not feature them again. Only the best for our planners!

Gone are the days when you needed a travel agent to book a vacation, a real estate agent to sell your home, and a decorator to help you remodel. In this do-it-yourself era, we can accomplish all these tasks without using a professional (unless we really want to). Maryoku has joined the trend and created a method that lets everyone plan events like pros at the click of a button. We're now providing you with the same opportunities, tools, market insights, and knowhow that were once the exclusive domain of elite planners. Our core mission is to empower you – to ensure that corporate event planning is completely stress-free, no matter how big or complex the event. With Maryoku, planning an event takes days, not weeks. So why not benefit from all the latest technologies available? Success is just a click away.

We encourage event planners to visit our pricing page for a detailed list of Maryoku planning packages. However, we also offer an innovative program where you pay nothing at all, simply by authorizing Maryoku to share your event as a template for others. This program achieves two goals: a) it allows all event planners to access our services, regardless of their budget, and b) it creates a community of planners who freely share their ideas, successes, and advice. Maryoku also collects a 10% fee from every vendor for each transaction. However, because vendors give us a 90% discount, you end up paying the same price you'd pay if you'd gone directly to the vendor. As a result, vendors receive a steady stream of business that makes this arrangement worth their while, Maryoku gets the revenue it needs to continue making event planning accessible and easy for all, and you get the same great vendor service without any additional cost. It's simply a win-win-win situation all round.

In this day and age, data is king. Using data to analyze behavior and trends is the key to so many of today's technological breakthroughs. At Maryoku, we take full advantage of the data available to us to make our collaboration with you as efficient as possible. We use data to a) familiarize ourselves with your company – your preferences and decision-making processes – so that we can tailor our proposal to you from the get-go, and not waste your valuable time; b) learn about each vendor's pricing model so that we can automatically generate quotes online without having to request them from the vendor each time; c) optimize vendor prices by analyzing market trends, benefiting vendor and planner alike.

Our inspiration wall features all the event successes that previous planners have approved for use as templates, as we mentioned above. Browse through the inspiration wall, select the template that best suits your event, and all the assets you need will be added to your account immediately, including a budget table, event timeline, creative concept, and vendor list featuring proposals (adapted to your event needs). You can also see guest reviews, helping you to customize your event based on feedback and your company's needs. Let us inspire you!
