Boston Ticketing Tools on the Go or at the Show
In a blink of an eye, we live in a new world, one where paper tickets are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Additionally, with COVID restrictions, it’s not even common to pass a credit card, pen, or other materials back and forth anymore. That means venues and event planners are looking for new ways to handle ticket sales and ticket taking.
Ticketing Portability
When we (our little OTL family team) decided to move forward with OTL City Guides Tickets Boston, we liked the mobile touchless, ticketless aspect. But, now we just realize that it’s a huge benefit as our world is so different now. Even venues with in-house ticketing systems might benefit from a portable box office in a virtual box. While it can stand alone, it can also supplement existing operations.
Customers Can Scan and You Can, Too!
- Customers can scan a QR code displayed on your sign or brochure (or you can use your URL)
- In a few clicks, they purchase tickets sent via email or text
- Then, when attendees are heading to your venue, ticket takers use the Evvnt app to scan the mobile tickets for admission
C’mon, could it be easier?!
Getting Started with Touchless Ticketing Tools in Boston
So, I’ve got more good news to share, as it’s quick and easy to request a username and build your own ticket sales page.
OTL City Guides Tickets Boston is user-friendly. However, you might feel better knowing that we’ve also got videos, an entire help section, and some tips to take your event to the next level. You’ll also have Evvnt’s ticketing gurus standing by to answer any support tickets you submit. You can do what you want with your ticket sales page, but you’re not on your own if you need some help.
You Need a Username to Get Started
To get started, all you need is a username. All you have to do is fill out this quick form with your name and organization. From there, someone (probably me) will put your organization in the system, and you’ll be ready to go.
Get creative! Put together images that will showcase your brand. Incorporate videos or clever ticket sales descriptions. Again, it’s easy to innovate, so have fun with it!
Why is OTL City Guides Tickets Different from Eventbrite or Brown Paper Tickets?
Aside from the long list of ticketing tools at your disposal, there are a few other things that set OTL City Guides Tickets apart from other event portals.
One City and One City Only
The number one distinction between OTL City Guides Tickets powered by Evvnt and other ticketing portals like Eventbrite or Brown Paper Tickets is that it’s city-specific.
There are 10 different OTL City Guides Tickets locations, and each is dedicated to one market. That means, instead of your customers scrolling through dozens (or hundreds) of cities, they’re going right to local opportunities.
For example, if you’re promoting an event in Boston or throughout New England, you’ll use OTL City Guides Tickets – Boston. That particular site features ticket opportunities in the greater New England area exclusively. You won’t find Chicago events tucked away on the same portal. For those, customers will access OTL City Guides Tickets – Chicago.
Your Event is YOUR Event
While the local focus is the primary difference, you’ll also find that you can customize your individual ticket sales page more through OTL City Guides Tickets.
You’ve got a lot of wide-open real estate to really do your event justice. And, from there, you can opt to take advantage of other ticketing tools like adding a donation button or sending secret access codes or reminders to your customers.
