Sold Out In 24hrs: Create A Frenzy Of Ticket Sales Using This Simple Trick
Made by Aidan O'Sullivan (@stageshowwizard)

One of the hardest things about selling tickets is getting your audience to buy from the moment that you put your tickets on sale.

I've launched countless shows over the years... only to see 0 tickets have shifted, even days after I hit publish. It sucked.

So, rather than accepting that this was "just how it is" like many other performers said, I got to work and found another way of doing it.

Which is when I came across a simple method that allowed me to sell out one of my shows in under 24 hours. The method? 🤔

📋 Build A Waitlist.

A simple collection of email addresses from people that want to find out more about your show when the tickets go live.

Rather than just appearing out of nowhere on social media with the link to buy tickets, hoping people would buy, I shifted my focus. Instead, I spent some time promoting the waitlist on social media. That way there was a lot less pressure, ZERO sales pitches and a great way to find out exactly who was most likely to get tickets.

Then, when launch day came, I was able to contact those people directly and the tickets sold out, FAST. Give this a shot for your next show! 💪
