EventBrite Is Simply Spectacular

If you host online or live events… do yourself a huge favor and check out EventBrite. EventBrite literally does it all… contact management, fee collection and promotion. While testing the service for some upcoming teleclasses I’m planning, I was blown away by the completeness and ease of use. I couldn’t think of a thing that I wanted to do with an event that it wouldn’t accommodate.
EventBrite even supports event affiliate revenue shares - not only for users to promo the EventBrite - but for user’s individual events! Simply put, you can create an event - then set it for others to promote, allowing you to set the revenue share.
EventBrite’s automated promotional and convenience features are one-click wonders - allowing you to automatically promote your event on other venues including Eventful, ZVents, Yahoo and Googlebase. In addition it provides the organizer with customizable event pages, RSS event update feeds, automated “add to calendar” links. The list goes on.
What does all this cost? Not much! If your event is free, it costs nothing. For fee events, you pay a fee of 2.5% of the ticket price, with a .99 minimum.

Along the same lines there’s been a lot of hype this week in San Diego about a new event ticketing service called TicketDerby.com. It seems pretty good. The best part is that the service is free for event organizers. I’d like to learn more about the event services out there.
Thanks for the tip, John - will check it out!
Thanks for the kind words, Mary! And thanks for picking up on our Attendee Referral capabilities. What this means is an event holder can use our platform to create their own affiliate program. Suppose you want to utilize your extensive network of contacts as a distribution channel for your event. In just a few keystrokes, you can create your very own affiliate program, offer your affiliates whatever share of your ticket revenues or fixed fee you choose, and instantly transform the people you know into something rather special — the personal affiliate program.
We think that’s really rather cool.
