The Massachusetts Horticultural Society favors Eventbrite’s timed entry tool over its competitors for its simple and user-friendly functionality.
“Eventbrite’s timed entry tool makes setup and management for timed ticketing easier compared to other platforms we’ve used,” they explain. “Other platforms require development experience and are too complex for our team.”
Remove ticketing friction for your attendees
Our industry-leading checkout experience takes the stress out of events for both you and your attendees.
Allowing event-goers to choose when they want to arrive will eliminate long queues at the door. If they can no longer make the time they’ve booked, they can easily change their ticket date or time.
What’s more, you can check attendees in quickly (and painlessly) on our Organizer App, resulting in a seamless ticketing experience from start to finish. They’ll be itching to come back in no time.
For the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, Eventbrite’s timed entry solution has allowed them to plan efficiently and manage crowd control easily.
“Timed entry has enabled us to spread guest arrivals across a day and avoid rushes during peak hours,” explains a spokesperson, adding: “Timed entry helps us to ensure we have the right staffing and volunteer levels throughout the day, which allows us to keep everything running smoothly.”
Reach more event-goers
Offering greater ticket flexibility is a surefire way to appeal to a larger audience. With Eventbrite’s unparalleled reach of more than 93 million people looking for things to do on the platform, the world of live experiences really is your oyster.
Give your event or experience the Eventbrite edge with built-in marketing tools powered by our exclusive events data and a marketplace that connects locals with your events.
If you want to take your marketing to the next level, why not appeal to specific event-goers by promoting different slots with targeted messaging? Massachusetts Horticultural Society market time slots to tap into FOMO and appeal to those looking to avoid the crowds.
“Timed entry is also a big help for marketing time slots that sell out fast by encouraging guests to book before it’s too late,” explains a spokesperson. “And for those who prefer a quieter or less busy experience, they can choose off-peak times to visit.”
Two-for-one ticket option to increase sales
If that wasn’t reason enough to love Eventbrite, we have enabled BOGO (buy one, get one) as a promotional tool for timed entry events. If a creator sets up an event and adds a paid ticket, they can offer a 2-for-1 deal to increase sales.
This is great for timed entry events, as you can offer discounted tickets for early or late arrivals to encourage people to purchase tickets during less busy periods. To find out more please visit the help center.
