Have you ever wanted to make money selling event tickets? This article will instruct anyone with a website how to make commissions on any event tickets sold?Let’s look at the facts? Concerts, sports, and theatre events happen all over the world, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Why is that, you ask? Well it’s just plain simple arithmetic…people need things to do…they need to be entertained. With that in mind, think of the thousands of tickets sold every day, and all of the money being generated off of those sales.

Currently, primary sources of ticket sellers such as Ticketmaster, Telecharge, and Tickets.com do not offer and probably will never offer affiliate program opportunities. However, secondary source ticket sellers such as TicketAmerica.com does offer such an affiliate program.

Though it’s a cinch to be an internet affiliate for any type of product , there is one thing you will have to do first, and that is to set up a website or blog. You can do this by going to one of the many blog creation sites such as blogger.com and blogspot.com Many of these sights are free of charge and are easy to use. No matter what theme you want to make your blog, everyone is a potential buyer of event tickets. As I said earlier, nobody likes to be bored.

Once you have a blog set up, you will want to get readers to your blog. You will have to be very creative in doing this, so I suggest to simply “google” it. The equation is simple in that the more people you have coming to your blog, the more chances you will have of making affiliate commissions.

Getting signed up to an affiliate program is a little easier and takes very little effort. First, you have to apply to sign up to be an affiliate. You will have to give simple information such as your name, email address, website or blog url that you want an affiliate link to be placed, payment preference, and so on. Usually an affiliate program representative will contact you to verify your info. Once your account has been confirmed, you will be able to login and select from a variety of creatives(affiliate links) to put on your blog. Each creative comes with an html code that you simply right click, copy, and then paste onto your blog. Now that you have an affiliate link on your blog, and again depending on how much traffic you have to your site, you will start to make money. Many affiliate programs will notify you via email, when you have made an affiliate commission. You then can log into your account and exactly see how much you have been awarded. Commission % can vary, and the norm for secondary ticket sellers is 5% to 7% of total sales.

As you can see, an affiliate program can be a very adventitious way of making extra money. So if you ever wanted to sell tickets, here is your chance.

Have you ever asked someone how they got their tickets?  This article reveals the different methods on finding out when events go on sale, how fans get tickets to sold out shows, and how fans get upfront tickets to their favorite shows.

As a ticket broker, I’ve had tons of people ask me, “How do you get your tickets?”, and a few years ago I would be reluctant to reveal my sources.  Since the evolution of the internet and the fierce competition that it has brought on, I find it better to inform people on some tricks on just how to get valuable, upfront seating.  First, I will start with ticket onsales.  You must know when a show is going onsale before you can even have a chance at obtaining good tickets.  Ticketmaster is probably the largest primary ticket seller to most events and you’ll want to get updates from this company. There are two methods to get these updates.  The first is that you can simply log on to their website and sign up to get upcoming events emailed to you.  The second is that since most onsales occur on Saturday mornings, you can check their homepage every Friday for any information pertaining.  Another recent source of onsale information, comes from Livenation.  Like ticketmaster, they have become a primary seller of tickets in which they also feature a newsletter that fans can sign up for as well.

Now that you know when tickets are going onsale, it’s time for the hard part, getting good tickets or getting any tickets for that matter.  The Neanderthal days of going to a ticketmaster outlet and getting tickets is almost all but over.  For example, in the city of my hometown, Chicago, ticketmaster outlets are located at places such as Carson Pirie Scott, and a few remaining record stores.  When you go there on Saturday morning to buy tickets they will always throw a lottery, usually by a security guard.  Whoever wins the lottery is the first person to buy tickets, and every number after the winning one lines up in order.  Now if you think your going to have a chance at winning the lottery, think again.  Please don’t be upset with me, I’m just trying to be informative.  Remember, our current President was re-elected this way as well.  Anyway,  due to all of the internet presales I no longer use this method in that good tickets rarely come up.

Internet presales and fan clubs are also able methods of obtaining tickets as well.  Usually with a presale, you have to join your favorite performer’s fan club.  You can do this by typing your band’s name followed by “fan club”, into google.  By now most performers have a fan club, so a successful search should come up, but expect to pay a fee to join.  Once you join their fan club, they will usually email concert updates along with passwords to buy tickets.   Limited tickets are released during these presales so make sure that your ready to buy at the onset of the presale.  Personally, I have been successful at some presales, but I have come up empty during most of them.  It has been suggested that fee based fan clubs are just another money making scheme in the ticket industry, and again from my experience, I would agree.

Another primary way of obtaining tickets, especially to your favorite sports team, is to get season tickets.  Depending on the sport this method can get pretty expensive.  For example, the Chicago Cubs offer different season ticket plans, and generally the larger the ticket plan, the better your seats will be. Again, this method can get pricey.

If you’ve tried all of the methods above but have come up short, than your next option would be the secondary market.  Ebay, Stubhub, and TicketAmerica are just to name a few.  I won’t go into Ebay that much, but I will simply say that tickets go to the highest bidder.  Stubhub on the other hand likes to portray itself as “Fans selling unused tickets to other fans”, which is only somewhat true.  Sure there are fans selling tickets that they cannot use, but there are a lot of ticket brokers and ticket resellers that list on Stubhub. I have been listing my tickets on Stubhub for almost three years.  Furthermore Stubhub marks up each ticket 30 percent, 15 charged to the seller and 15 charged to the buyer.  When brokers put there tickets on Stubhub, a common practice will be for the broker to price his tickets higher on Stubhub, than his own website to make up for the difference.   Going through a ticket broker such as TicketAmerica is another option.  As with most ticket brokers, this company is linked to various other ticket brokers.  This is why you will see their ticket inventory posted on several other ticket websites.  Going through ticket brokers can be pricey, but it saves a heck of a lot of time and aggravation.

The internet has really changed the ticket industry, and it can seem like an endless maze trying to obtain your favorite tickets.  Hopefully this article can shed some light and get you in the front row!
