SimpleTix Helps Promoters Be More Green

Founder & CEO of SimpleTix.com, the World's most flexible e-Ticketing Platform. Entrepreneur and software developer by trade. My current role is SimpleTix is to seek out partnerships with other e-commerce platforms, payment gateways, and channel partnership opportunities.
Environmentalism is, well the new green. Promoters and event planners everywhere are moving away from printed tickets to e-Ticketing. Innovative e-ticketing solutions, like SimpleTix, are enabling these organizations to move forward with their green initiatives – making easier to reduce, improve operational efficiency, help the environment, build good will with customers and reduce or eliminate budgets related to paper tickets.
While some companies simply make emotive symbolic gestures, SimpleTix is not just making promises. The company has invested in offsetting 1.65 metric tons of CO2 emissions. The non-profit said,
“Thank you for your donation and thank you for being a leader in the fight to stop global warming. Your leadership protecting our environment is important today and for future generations. You are helping support the highest quality, third party validated carbon reduction and offset projects in the world that are fighting global warming now.”
In addition, SimpleTix’s platform offers features like:
- Mobile scannable tickets that eliminate paper ticketing entirely
- Email communications and electronic billing, which can entirely eliminate paper invoicing
- 15 templates that allow multiple tickets to be printed on a single sheet of
paper.
and SimpleTix is releasing new features each month that only add to the capabilities.
Although the environmental impact of reducing consumption is important, that’s not the only benefit. The other green it impacts is organizational cash flow. Using less paper and ink for printing tickers means operational costs are reduced. All expenses related to paper, ink, printing and other production cost can be substantially reduced, and in some cases eliminated with e-ticketing depending on how frequently your customer base requests a physical tickets. In addition to supply costs, not printing tickets or printing multiple tickets per page can also reduce costs related to shipping paper and ink or gas for picking it up.
In addition to internal benefits, customers no longer have to keep up with paper tickets to confirm bookings. E-ticketing substantially reduces the likelihood of ticket loss or theft and the associated customer dissatisfaction that is sure to accompany it. Nothing is more detrimental to an event than a negative attendee experience – especially in the age of social media. E-tickets are also much more difficult to scalp – something event promoters have long tried to combat due to the environment it creates at events.
Although most customers will embrace e-Ticketing, some may not because they want to purchase tickets as gifts. SimpleTick provides the flexibility to print paper tickets and satisfy your hard won customer base. SimpleTix recently introduced new ticketing templates that allow multiple tickets to be printed per page – a feature many of the SimpleTix’s competitors do not offer.

[vc_row][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1480416839073{padding-right: 20px !important;}"][vc_column_text]Pacesetter Claims Service is a trusted property claims service that offers coverage across the U.S. They provide daily insurance claim services, catastrophe services, water damage mitigation, and other insurance adjustment offerings. Pacesetter ultimately provides homeowners and renters with essential insurance services. When Pacesetter chose to launch their 2nd Claims Conference using SimpleTix, we were thrilled to handle the event registration process for them. SimpleTix offered Pacesetter custom features like surveys and auto-scheduling to ensure they would make the most of their property insurance event.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_single_image image="26758"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vcex_spacing][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] [caption id="attachment_26750" align="alignright" width="288"] Image: Hard Rock Hotel & Casino (Conference Location)[/caption]By integrating Pacesetter's event registration portal with a survey feature, Pacesetter can ask event attendees important questions. More specifically, Pacesetter can now request the workshop/break-out session schedules of attendees. This helps Pacesetter determine the specific tracks that people plan to attend at their event. It also makes it easier for Pacesetter to interact directly with the insurance industry professionals who attend their conference. Pacesetter's event attendees are also able to automatically schedule classes that are "grouped" together. For example, if a conference attendee chooses a "Part 1 class" to attend, that attendee would automatically be scheduled for the corresponding "Part 2" class as well. This auto-scheduling feature prevents people from signing up from too many "part 1" classes. It also prevents people from skipping the corresponding "part 2" classes when those classes are deemed necessary.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image image="26755" title="Attendee Workshop Selection"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In other words, auto-scheduling makes it easy for conference-goers to receive the full experience of events. Not to mention, it also helps companies like Pacesetter attract many more attendees at their events!
