How Fanfaire Gives You Both: A Front Office for Your Clients and a Back Office That Runs It All
Most event pros don’t realize it, but your business has two sides:
the front office, where clients interact with you, and the back office, where you create and manage everything behind the scenes.
Most software in our industry only focuses on one side.
Fanfaire is the only visual booking platform that gives you both.
What’s the Difference Between Front Office and Back Office Tools?
In simple terms:
Back office tools are the systems you use to design, organize, and manage your business operations.
Front office tools are what your customers use to shop, interact, and book with you.
Here’s the problem: most event pros have back office tools — like Canva, spreadsheets, and invoicing apps — but no front office. That’s why clients can’t browse, customize, and book your designs online.
Fanfaire bridges that gap by connecting both sides into one seamless experience.
Your Back Office: The Engine Behind Your Business
The back office is where your creativity meets your business systems.
It’s what keeps your operations efficient, consistent, and scalable.
Design Studio
The Design Studio is your creative powerhouse — a purpose-built design environment for event professionals.
Think Canva, but specifically for balloon stylists and décor artists.
Here’s what makes it different:
Drag-and-drop visual design built for balloon décor
Instant publishing to your storefront
Real pricing control, no guessing games
A design workflow that saves hours of back-and-forth
While your clients never enter the Design Studio, they do see what you create there — through your published designs on your storefront.
Command Center
The Command Center is your business control hub.
It connects your bookings, payments, orders, and calendar — all in one place.
No more juggling multiple tools to manage inquiries, invoices, and communication.
Your Command Center handles it all, automatically syncing with your storefront.
Together, the Design Studio and Command Center make up your Fanfaire Back Office — the behind-the-scenes system that keeps your business running smoothly.
Fanfaire is the only platform that provides this visual booking process.
Your Front Office: Where Clients Shop and Book
The front office is what your customers experience.
It’s your virtual storefront — where they can see your work, design their own event setup, and book in real time.
Digital Storefront
Your Digital Storefront is a visual, shoppable gallery that brings your business to life.
Clients can browse your designs, customize them, view pricing, and book directly online.
Key benefits:
Zero-touch booking (no back-and-forth messages)
Real-time pricing for transparency
A professional, branded storefront that sells for you
It’s not just a website — it’s a fully interactive sales experience.
Collaboration Mode
For clients who prefer a personal touch, Collaboration Mode lets you co-create together in real time.
You can adjust designs, tweak pricing, and communicate visually — all inside one shared LIVE cart.
This is how event pros turn conversations into bookings.
Fast, visual, and frustration-free.
Together, the Digital Storefront and Collaboration Mode create your Fanfaire Front Office — the customer-facing tools that let you sell visually and book faster than ever.
How It All Connects
When you use Fanfaire, your front office and back office finally work together.
You design in the Design Studio
You manage everything in the Command Center
You publish your work to the Digital Storefront
You collaborate with clients in Collaboration Mode
It’s a complete, connected platform — from design to booking to management.
“Front office tools are where clients shop and book;
back office tools are where businesses create and run everything behind the scenes.”
That’s the Fanfaire difference.
Where to Start
If you’re just beginning with Fanfaire, start small — with the Design Studio. You won’t need to change your processes over night.
Once you’ve created a few design sets, you’ll quickly see how everything connects across the full platform.
