More Event Promoters Sell Tickets Direct

More Event Promoters Sell Tickets Direct

LONDON, April 16/PRNewswire/ -- More event promoters are now enjoying the benefits of selling tickets
direct to customers via their own websites using eTickets.to.

All the Rage, Dance Island, Perfect Day Festival & Garden Party, The
Magic Loungeabout and Zoo Thousand are among the latest events to sign up and
start selling tickets directly to their customers.

"eTickets.to lets us offer our customers a much better deal by buying
direct and we benefit greatly by getting our cash directly and knowing that
our marketing data is for our eyes only. The whole process has been stress
free and simple - we love it." Comments Zoo Thousand Director Matt Dice.

By removing the middleman eTickets.to improves cashflow for promoters -
as they receive their revenue direct from their customers - and gives back
control of the customer relationship to the promoter as they retain sole
rights to their data - so no danger of their customers being cross-sold
competing events.

eTickets.to's easy to use service puts event organisers in control of
everything, from pricing to allocations and gives them instant access to
their sales data. eTickets.to don't charge percentage booking fees, they
simply charge a small flat fee per ticket sold.

Scalable to any size of event and with no minimum charges, eTickets
delivers tickets to customers instantly and securely by email, letting events
sell right up until the last minute. It also has advanced security features
putting an end to fraud and unauthorised resales. For large events
eTickets.to also offers a completely managed entry service - including the
provision of on-site staff and ticket redemption equipment, providing a
complete solution for event promoters.

As eTickets.to founder Matt McNeill explains "By selling direct, event
promoters can offer customers a much better deal on ticket prices - meaning
happier customers and more ticket sales. Our new managed services have been
proving very popular with larger events, providing promoters with a complete
ticketing and entry solution for a fraction of the cost of a normal booking
fee. We're really excited to be working with so many great events this year."

eTickets.to's success has not gone unnoticed and the company was named
'Innovative Business of the Year' at the Natwest Startups Awards 2007 and was
also highly commended in the National Business Awards 2007 (South East
Region).
