In Return for all of the above Ryan Ashley will.....

Ryan will let her followers know that she will be attending the Richmond Tattoo and Arts Festival at least 8 times between the signing of this agreement and the day of the convention.

1) One telling everyone that she has just agreed to attend the convention (as soon as possible)

2) One reminding everyone to come see her this coming Oct (around Mayish)

3) One reminding everyone to come see her this coming Oct (around Augustish)

4) One reminding people that she will be attending and if they'd like to attend her "Meet and Greet" then they can do so by snagging up a VIP ticket using the link in bio (about a month before the con)

5) Another one similar to the one above (two weeks before the con)

6) Maybe one documenting her trip to Richmond (the day before the con)

7) A daily story telling everyone she is at the con (During the con)

8) a post about how awesome the con was (assuming she enjoys herself šŸ˜‰ after the con

Ryan will do 2x "Meet and Greets" at the Richmond Tattoo and Arts Festival (Dates and Times to be discussed at a later date). We will provide a room for her to do so. (If you need anything specific for this room please let us know as soon as you can)
Leading up to the convention we will have our publicist reaching out to local news stations, radio stations, magazines, etc. If Ryan wouldn't mind accommodating anyone who reaches out about our con that would be appreciated. We will also be lining up a bunch of radio and news interviews for the Thurs/Fri before the convention and would like for her to participate.
We will be producing a promo video to promote the event and would appreciate it if she would narrate it. We'd basically give here a short script to essentially talk about the show, the dates, meet and greet, etc. The video will only be about 1 minute long so it probably won't be more than 45 seconds of talking. (We could probably merge this with one of the social media posts above to make it easier on her)
This is the only tattoo convention that Ryan Ashley will be working in the U.S. for the entirety of 2023.
If for whatever reason Ryan Ashley cannot make it to the Richmond Tattoo and Arts Festival we ask that she gives us as much notice as possible. We would also need her to create a video communicating to her followers that she will no longer be attending and lastly, we would like a guarantee that she will attend the following year for 25% less than her original asking price.
