Update: As of 2020, PromoTix is now free for free events, and for event organizers. Attendees pay a small fee. You can sell paid tickets without incurring any per-ticket fees on PromoTix for you or attendees, when you purchase a Professional Enterprise annual software license subscription. The biggest industry problem Did you know that the average ticketing service fee in the U.S. is 27%?1 For far too long, event organizers have been getting their profits squeezed from all angles: from high ticketing fees to increasing costs for production and performers, 68% of music festival organizers reported profitability as their biggest challenge.

What is a street team anyway...? A street team (or ambassador program) is a selected group of people that engage with your social media content, hand out promotional materials, and help generate additional revenue for you. Typically, street team members are rewarded with discounts, free tickets, and exclusive perks related to your products or events.

Recently I got to catch up with Chase Myska, a street team member who has achieved incredible success promoting for Backwoods at Mulberry Mountain through PromoTix. Here is what Chase had to say:
How can I sell more tickets for my upcoming events? This is the one question every promoter and event organizer asks themselves constantly. If you're in the industry of booking talent, producing, and marketing events, then ticket sales are most likely the lifeblood of your business. Even if you are a promoter that turns a profit only after attendees walk through the door (for example, alcohol sales), the statement still holds true. Think about it: in order to throw a successful party, you need to have people walk through that door - and in order for people to show up, you need to sell tickets!
We help event creators throw successful and profitable events.
