I am still not happy with how hard it is to find local events and activities online. It is generally convenient to find and buy movie tickets online as well as sporting events and concerts. What is not convenient to find (and buy a ticket online) are local events and niche events such as seminars and enthusiasts-related events. Companies such as EventBrite are starting to fill that void by offering businesses and organizations, both big and small, a way to promote niche and local events.
Basically EventBrite helps businesses and organization sell tickets to events. This includes online software and services for businesses and organizations to manage, promote, and sell online tickets for their events. If your event is free, EventBrite offers it services for free. If you are charging an admission fee, then EventBrite will charge the business or organization a small percentage of the admission price.
Event Promotion services such as EventBrite are ideal for training seminars, events for all types of enthusiasts (cars, hunting, quilting, gaming, wrestling, and so on), and local events (fishing, bake offs, holidays, and so on). EventBrite allows event holders to post event descriptions, build web pages to sell tickets, offer discount schemes, collect registration information, tools to promote event, host affiliate programs (have other web sites to promote your event), and provide ready-made HTML snippets for web ads. Visit EventBrite for more information. Also, see Rob Pannoni’s Blog for a detailed review of EventBrite’s services.
