Adults handle
the crowd.
Trained. Insured. W-2. The people standing between your venue and a 6am phone call about three no-shows.
10,000 people walking through a venue is a logistics problem, a safety problem, and a liability problem. Someone owns the risk. We make sure that someone is qualified.
We staff stadiums, festivals, and large activations with people trained on flow, barriers, escalation, and the kind of soft authority that prevents an incident from becoming a story.
They're employees, not contractors. We pay them, insure them, and stand behind them. That's the whole pitch.
Boring on purpose. Loud when it has to be.
Queue & Line Management
Holding the line, splitting the line, opening the line. Without the bottleneck.
linear_scaleFlow & Routing
Moving thousands through choke points without making them feel moved.
alt_routeBarrier & Barricade Ops
Setup, repositioning, tear-down. The barriers go where they need to.
fenceEntry & Exit Monitoring
Watching the doors that matter. Reporting what doesn't look right.
door_openEscalation
When it stops being crowd control and starts being a security call.
reportBoring, on purpose.
The fun part of staffing is the part you don't notice. Here's what every crowd control staff we deploy is already past.
Identity verified
Screened through our W-2 agency partners. Real people, real records.
Role-specific training
Trained on the actual job before the truck unloads. Not a tutorial on the way over.
Named lead on site
Every deployment has a supervisor with a name. You don't manage the crew. They do.
Insured & classified correctly
W-2 payroll. Workers' comp. General liability. The forms nobody likes filling out are filled out.
One vendor.
Every city.
Zero surprises.
We're not the cheapest option.
We're also not the option that calls you at 6am because three people no-showed.

Megan Hayward
Founder & CEO, TempGuru
We built TempGuru because someone had to. Turns out that someone was us. The staffing industry needed a reality check — and crowd control staff are exactly where that conversation starts.
The honest answers.
How fast can TempGuru deliver crowd control staff? expand_more
24 to 48 hours in most markets. If we can't hit that window we tell you upfront, not the night before load-in.
What makes TempGuru different from a gig staffing app? expand_more
W-2 employment, workers' comp, named supervisors, and a contract with real accountability. Not 1099 contractors marketed as flexibility. The gig app didn't show up to the audit. Funny how that works.
Can TempGuru scale crowd control staff for multi-day events and tours? expand_more
Yes. 25 to 500+ per event across multiple venues, across 300+ markets, on a single contract.
Are TempGuru crowd control staff really W-2 employees? expand_more
Yes. Every shift. Payroll taxes withheld, workers' comp coverage, and proper classification — not 1099 misclassification dressed up as gig work.
Is insurance included? expand_more
General liability and workers' compensation are included on every deployment. Certificates of insurance are available before the event.
One vendor. Every city.
Zero surprises.
Tell us what you need. We'll tell you honestly what we can do. Then we'll do it.
