# Event Archetypes Archetypes are reusable staffing templates that pre-fill a sensible role mix and flags for a given event type. They define **counts and structure, never rates**, rates always come from [pricing](../pricing/rate-matrix.md). - [Trade Show / Booth Activation, Small](trade-show-booth-small.md) _(draft)_ More archetypes (festivals, conferences, sporting events, activations) are in development. Drafts are marked as such and are not yet authoritative for defaults.
