Today we’d like to introduce you to Jordan Clements.
Jordan, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
When I was in Junior High and High School, my friends and I would go to local shows practically every weekend. We would hang out before, go to the show, then hang out some more after. It was something that I looked forward to every week. After going to shows for a while, I started handing out flyers and promoting local shows for my friends on social media. I became more and more fascinated with the whole process of putting shows together. That led me to start putting together my own local and smaller touring band shows, and with a little trial and error – It finally came together, and JRC Events was created. It has been around 7+ years since JRC Events was started, and the future looks fantastic.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
The road has never been smooth, and if it was – I don’t think it would keep me on my toes. I’m constantly evolving in everything that I do with JRC Events, and that’s what makes it so exciting. The biggest struggle in growing is failing – but you can’t fail unless you give up.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
I’m a talent buyer/event promoter based in Salt Lake City, UT – I specialize in concerts, drag shows, private parties, and miscellaneous queer events. I do everything from booking the acts at the venues to a day of show responsibilities.
If we knew you growing up, how would we have described you?
Growing up, I was always the class clown – always trying to make people laugh. I think that’s why I excelled in the entertainment industry because I love finding joy in others.
