Everyone – including the artists and board

Posted by Shoshana 
· Monday, June 27th, 2016 

As you may already know, selling an event is becoming more challenging, especially when people rely on the marketing staff alone to get the work done.

It has been proven for many events that when there is a team mentality, events sell out more often and houses become more frequently full.

In order to create the buzz for an event, it does take many people talking about the event to create that tipping point. When the artists and the board add to the mix, this makes a big difference! People take notice when they are hearing directly from this level of people.

So, if you want more buzz to create full houses and sold out events, do everything possible to get everyone promoting the event – including the artists and board!

Cheers to happy and loyal audiences,
Shoshana

Testimonials

Arizona Women’s Theatre Company (AZWTC)

“I loved the sessions and as I was taking them for my newly elected position, I felt I needed some close mentoring and strict goal setting..She absolutely did listen to our needs and tailored her sessions to fit our little situation. I have bragged about the sessions to other admins in our areas. Some of the instructions were familiar as I had followed her ideas for some time. Most are obtainable over time and will be implemented this coming year as we finish our season. My time with Shoshana at ADS, I would rate it First Class!” —Joy Bingham Strimple, Board President
