From Hobby to Brick-and-Mortar: Building At City Events for Scale

At City Events is a full-service event company based in Killeen, Texas, rooted in family values and a strong commitment to serving the local community. We supported their transition from an at-home, hobby-based operation into a structured brick-and-mortar business by helping implement the systems, processes, and operational foundation needed to scale. Below, we’ve broken out key projects and deliverables that reflect that growth and the work completed along the way.

Below is a breakdown of the specific projects VDRIO Consulting delivered to build At City Events’ operational foundation, strengthen visibility, and support their brick-and-mortar growth

  • Project: Print & Production Operations Setup + Ongoing Management
    VDRIO Consulting installed and configured AtCity Events’ print and production equipment (plotter, DTF, UV DTF, laser) and established the operational workflow to run it consistently. We implemented maintenance routines and ongoing management practices to reduce downtime, protect equipment performance, and support reliable production delivery.

  • Project: SOPs + “How-To” Guides for Printer Management
    VDRIO Consulting developed step-by-step printer management guides to standardize daily operations, maintenance, and basic troubleshooting. This created repeatable processes, improved consistency, and reduced reliance on informal, ad-hoc knowledge.

  • Project: Equipment Rental + Business Contract Package
    VDRIO Consulting created equipment rental agreements and core business contracts to formalize services and protect the business. We clarified terms, responsibilities, and customer expectations to support smoother transactions and reduce operational risk.

  • Project: Pricing Structure + Foundational Pricing Guide
    VDRIO Consulting built a pricing structure and foundational pricing guide to improve quoting consistency and protect margins. We implemented a repeatable pricing approach that supports faster decision-making and more sustainable profitability.

  • Project: Brick-and-Mortar Transition + Business Management Buildout
    VDRIO Consulting supported AtCity Events’ transition from an at-home operation into a structured brick-and-mortar business. We coordinated key startup and move-in requirements (contracts, signage, administrative readiness, bookkeeping support, and mobilization) and strengthened their online presence through Google Business Profile setup, website presence, and social media visibility—making the business easy to locate, locally visible, and positioned for profitable operations.

VDRIO CONSULTING continues to support companies like At City Events with professional, tailored guidance that meets them where they are—whether they’re organizing operations, building systems, or preparing for their next stage of growth. Our goal is simple: deliver practical support, clear structure, and repeatable processes that help businesses run stronger, scale with confidence, and stay profitable.
