The World Really is an OpenStage™

The World Really is an OpenStage(TM)

LONDON, November 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --



A revolutionary new online platform is challenging the live events market by handing
control of where and when live events take place directly to performing artists and their
fans.



http://www.openstageit.com is a crowd source community to support and create live
events. By using the platform, fans can begin campaigns to bring their favourite
performers to their area and artists can trial the popularity of an event prior to any
commitment to perform.

OpenStage [http://www.openstageit.com ] is the missing link between a performer and
their fans, connecting demand with supply directly for the first time.



Traditional ticketing mechanisms for live events are plagued with problems from
secondary ticketing channels and discounts. By connecting performers and fans directly,
OpenStage [http://www.openstageit.com ] ensures the only people to obtain tickets are the
true fans - a benefit for performers and fans alike.



Using OpenStage [http://www.openstageit.com ], fans of all performers are able to show
the artists where they would like them to play and pledge how much they would pay for a
ticket. Once enough audience or participants have pledged to make the event viable, the
performer can decide to go ahead and the pledges become tickets. If an event does not go
ahead, no money has been exchanged and the fan base can devote their time to building a
larger following to entice the performer.



Unlike any other crowd source community, OpenStage [http://www.openstageit.com ] has a
dual function: it is also a platform for performers, promoters and event organisers to
sell tickets to an event, testing its popularity before any investment is made into its
creation.



OpenStage [http://www.openstageit.com ] can be used for all types of events, including
professional business speakers, circus acts and conferences as well as musicians, bands
and comedians. The platform can also be used by organisers of free events and each event
can be designated as being suitable for either the general public or as a private
"invitation-only" audience.



OpenStage [http://www.openstageit.com ] has been developed from ideas originating
directly from performers and by a team of like-minded people with one common goal - to
grow and change the live events industry for the better. Headed by Sam Barlow, CEO and
Founder, the team is a collaboration people in the industry - performers, promoters,
technical experts, and commercially-minded gig-goers.
