I use it for all my events!” *@YogaUncorked via Twitter” “We used TT to help us sell tickets online for a small community music festival on the Isle of Skye. Last year we tried (and succeeded, but at a cost of much hard work, loads of hours and reams of paper) to sell tickets manually – by phone, by email, etc… This year, we decided to risk taking the plunge to sell tickets online – The Ticket Tailor service was very simple to set up, to create events, to get dashboard reporting on and to integrate with payment services. Once events were designed, pasting the ‘widget’ into the web controls (I used squarespace) was also very simple. Customer Service was great (I asked a couple of questions by email about how to set up events and how I could stop my subscription once our event was over) and got replies very quickly with the information I needed.
