“Sean was extremely helpful and was able to assist me on all topics that were addressed. He was a great teacher as he showed me the process of making a search widget, then let me go through the process myself. I left feeling confident in the subject. He also went over the 1/2 an hour time slot that we scheduled to help with additional questions.” – Yale University Athletics
AudienceView remains the only ticketing provider to have two consumer brands under its brand umbrella. TheaterMania in North America and WhatsOnStage in the United Kingdom both attract thousands of avid performing arts fans with their insightful articles and behind-the-scenes social media content. As such, clients who join the AudienceView family gain access to incomparable data insights.
The April consumer survey report, published by AudienceView and TheaterMania, has garnered significant traction within the industry, attracting engagement from thousands of live event organizations in Q2. The data dives into how audiences discover events, what factors they consider important when choosing to attend a production, and their preferred methods for purchasing and receiving tickets. Insights on how to improve ticketing processes, optimize marketing strategies, enhance patron relationships, and ultimately increase revenue, demonstrate AudienceView’s commitment to delivering meaningful insights to current and prospective clients, and the industry.
The first half of 2023 brought exciting technological advancements for AudienceView, showcasing the company’s commitment to innovation and staying ahead of the curve. Kelowna Actors Studio became AudienceView’s first client to adopt the Spotlight app, joining the ranks of The O2, Indianapolis Speedway, Lord’s Cricket Stadium, and more. They were closely followed by new Unlimited client Pietix, who are seeing up to 70% of their ticket holders adopting the app and loving it so much, the app has a 4.9*/5 rating on the app store from over 100 reviews. Pietix is already seeing app users buying tickets to future events through the app, with each user spending on average $5. In their own words, ‘We love it, and our customers love it!’
In June, AudienceView announced an exciting partnership with xCover, a leading provider of event cancellation and refund protection solutions, redesigning the user interface and improving conversion rates at the point of purchase.
