Fra start til slutt

Open your ticket on-sale

Between the announcement and the on-sale there is time to read every ticket type again and buy a test ticket end to end. Promoters then schedule the event to go public at the minute they announced. Tickets sold, revenue and orders are what they watch through the first hour.

Check every ticket type and buy a test ticket yourself, put the event live at the time you announced, and follow tickets sold, revenue and orders through the first hour.

Putting an announced event on sale at a set time
Tar
10 minutter

Før du starter

  • The event is finished and in draft, with every ticket type, price, allocation and sale window set.
  • Your payment processing account is connected and taking money. Without it, a buyer who reaches the checkout cannot pay.
  • You know the exact minute you announced tickets open, and who is watching the first hour with you.
  1. Check the ticket types one last time

    Open the event and read every ticket type: price, how many, when it opens and when it closes.

    Merk: A ticket type with no allocation stays on sale until you stop it, and one whose sale window opens tomorrow does not appear today.

  2. Add a hidden ticket to test with

    Add one cheap ticket type that is on sale now and hidden behind an access code.

    Merk: Your real ticket types cannot be bought before their window opens, and putting one on sale early would let any buyer who finds the page buy it. Only a buyer with the access code can reach a hidden ticket, so the test stays yours.

  3. Buy the hidden ticket on the live event page

    Publish the event, enter your access code and buy that ticket yourself, end to end, on a phone.

    Merk: This is the only check that covers the whole path: the page, the checkout, the card charge and the confirmation email. Refund your own order afterwards.

  4. Close the test ticket type

    Take the hidden ticket type off sale once your own order is refunded.

    Merk: A ticket type that has taken an order cannot be deleted, and your test order counts. Off sale and hidden, it stays out of the way.

  5. Take the event back down

    Unpublish the event.

    Merk: You cannot schedule a live event: its publish button takes it down instead, and a scheduled publish works only on an event that is already down.

  6. Set the on-sale time

    Open the publish dialog and select Schedule Publish to open the event at the minute you announced.

    Merk: A scheduled publish opens the event whether or not your team is at a keyboard. Choose the timezone you announced in, not the one you are sitting in.

  7. Tell your audience it is open

    Send the announcement to your buyer list at the moment the event goes live, not before it.

    Merk: An email that arrives before the tickets are on sale sends buyers to a page they cannot buy from, and they rarely come back the same day.

  8. Watch the first hour

    Keep Performance open and check it every few minutes for the first hour.

    Merk: Watch for one ticket type far ahead of the rest, which tells you what to release next, and for no sales at all, which means something is broken.

Eller få det gjort for deg

Fai can read the event back to you before you open it, publish it once you approve, and report the sales as they come in. The CLI publishes and reads the same event without opening the dashboard.

Release more tickets when a tier sells out

  1. Open the next release

    Open the ticket type you held back and set its sale window to start now.

    Merk: Holding stock back is what gives you something to release. Decide the price of the next tier before the on-sale, not during it.

Fai can open the next release once you approve the price and the number.

Collect the people who missed out

  1. Turn on the waiting list

    Turn the waiting list on as soon as the last ticket goes, so the demand after a sell-out is captured rather than lost.

    Merk: A waiting list collected in the first hour is the audience for your next release, and for your next event.

Fai can open the event so you can turn the waiting list on. Switching it on and reading its members are dashboard jobs today.

Spørsmål du kanskje har

Should I publish by hand or schedule it?
Schedule it. The event opens at the minute you announced without your team at a keyboard, and you spend that minute watching the sales instead.
What if I have no sales in the first ten minutes?
Open the event page yourself as a buyer would. A ticket type whose sale window has not opened, a payment processing account that is not connected, and an unpublished event all look the same from the report.
Should I prepare for a rush?
If you expect more demand than tickets, read the guide on keeping a high-demand on-sale running smoothly before the day. You have to make those choices in advance.
