You order tickets with your invitations, sell them, and everybody wants to buy them, right? Most students will be excited to buy Prom <a href=\"https:\/\/www.andersons.com\/invitations\/tickets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tickets<\/a> right away, but there are always a few stragglers. Follow these tips to sell as many tickets as you can during the time allotted.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Set Ticket Booths in High Traffic Areas<br \/>\n<\/i><\/b>Setting up a ticket booth in a random hallway or school space may not be the best approach. Make sure you set up Prom ticket booths in \u201chigh traffic\u201d areas of your school campus. Try some of these locations:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2022 Cafeteria<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u2022 Offices<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u2022 Auditorium<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u2022 Gymnasium<\/em><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Run A Sales Contest with Your Prom Committee<br \/>\n<\/i><\/b>There\u2019s something to be said for an incentive when selling things. This is also true for tickets. Divide your Prom tickets among your Invitation Subcommittee members, and then have a sales contest to see who can sell the most Prom tickets by a certain date. Be sure to budget a little extra money so the winner of the Prom ticket contest receives a small prize.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Make Announcements Via the P.A. System<br \/>\n<\/i><\/b>Make sure to remind students daily (or every other day) when and where they can purchase their Prom tickets. Make announcements via your P.A. system during homeroom, lunch hours, or during a random afternoon. This will give any procrastinators a push to buy their tickets sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Promote Prom Tickets on Social Channels<br \/>\n<\/i><\/b>Take Prom ticket selling to the next level, and sell and promote them via social channels. Set up a website where students can purchase tickets using a debit or credit card. Don\u2019t forget to <i>promote<\/i> the sale of Prom tickets on social channels! Use Twitter, Facebook, and other social media channels to urge students to buy their tickets by the deadline.<\/p>\n<p>Need tickets for this year&#8217;s Prom? We can help.
