CitySpark private label ticketing drives revenue for publishers

There are a number of reasons for a publisher to offer their own in-house ticketing option:

• Turn ticketing for your in-house events from a cost center to a profit center.
• Expand relationships (and share of wallet) with existing advertisers.
• Ability to pair it with your local marketing offerings and expertise to help drive ticket sales.
• Establish more direct relationships with consumers, and generate enhanced first party data.
• Increased brand awareness for the publisher, in more places and with a broader swath of consumers.

And of course…

• Generate a new revenue stream, with significant upside potential (from in-house events, large local and regional events, and small-to-mid-sized venues).

As a local publisher you already have the relationships.  Your sales team is already meeting with potential ticketing clients.  You are the experts in your market for getting the word out.  And, you are local — many would prefer to support a local option.

With the CitySpark local event platform and integrated ticketing options, you can take advantage of these market winds blowing in your favor — your audience will have access to the best local event content, your advertisers will have access to full-feature ticketing for no cost to them, and you will make money doing it.

CitySpark does not charge a monthly fee — but rather does a revenue share on ticket service fees paid by the ticket buyer (or optionally netted from the ticket price).   Our robust feature set is great for even the most complicated events, and our service fees are among the lowest in the market and will easily beat anyone with a comparable feature set.

CitySpark publishers have sold hundreds of thousands of dollars in tickets already this Spring and they are just getting started.
