Convention Budget Planner Spreadsheet, Artist Alley Break Even Calculator, Con Trip Hotel Split, Vendor Event Budget, Google Sheets Excel

An out-of-town con can cost $600 or more before you sell a thing. List each con you are thinking about: table and badge fees, your share of the hotel, driving or flights, parking, food and supplies. The planner adds it up, shows how many sales you need to break even, your expected profit and profit per hour, and gives each show a GO, MAYBE or SKIP so you apply to the right ones.

AI disclosure: made by LB3 Trackers with AI assistance. AI tools helped write the code that builds the files, plus the layouts and wording; every file was checked before listing.

What's included:
- Cons tab: selling days, hotel nights, table and badge fees, hotel rate split by roommates, round-trip miles and driving cost, flight/train, parking, food (default or your own), supplies, TOTAL COST (40 cons)
- Break-even: average sale and margin %, profit per sale, break-even sales, your expected sales, expected profit, profit per hour and a GO / MAYBE / SKIP verdict
- Dashboard: your cost per mile, default food per day and GO target, plus total cost, total expected profit, verdict counts, best con and lowest break-even
