Online Ticket Sales

Mark and Mike have a plan to sell tickets through the website. This has several advantages:

• Ordering by credit card
• Central list of who's bought tickets - don't need to transcribe from loads of emails in the account
• Easy breakdown of ticket sales per night, ticket type, etc.
• Link to 'Buy Tickets Now' on the home page might encourage more people to come to the show, possibly from further afield.

Ideally, if tickets are sold for cash, they should be logged on the website to make sure we know how many we have sold.

Ticket Design

• Don't get the SU to print them. See Printing for more info.
• Tickets should have unique numbers
• Basically, the logo of the show and the society with the date and time of each performance should be enough in terms of design.
• It may also be convenient to have different colored tickets for each performance.

Tickets for Ruddigore 2008

Mike printed the tickets for Ruddigore 08.
Cost breakdown:

In terms of selling tickets, book Vanbrugh Stalls the week before the show and get people to sign up to sell them, probably in two hour slots (10-12, 12-2). It's also a good idea to give about fifty tickets for each night to YOUR:SHOP, but only if you speak to the manager beforehand and clear it with him. He'll usually be at the store in the mornings, so just ask someone. Be sure you also know the dates and times of all the shows, as he will ask you, and it may be a little embarrassing if you don't know.¹
