Still trying to pack the place? When you’re dreaming of an exclusive event, a queue of eager club-goers stretching out the door and around the block, waiting for the chance to walk past that plush velvet barrier, communicating your sense of excitement to potential partiers is of the utmost importance.

Sure, we talked about club promotions last week, but we’re not done talking about it!

You can issue boring, generic tickets, or you can print your own club tickets online. Personalise them with the name of your club, the name of the event, the names of musicians or DJs. Put your Event Tickets to work for you. Let them create publicity where you can’t go: into the kitchens, bedrooms, and wallets of your faithful fans.

Consider your options.

• Funky: With a matching Event Kit, the Purple Nightclub General Admission Ticket communicates a serious sense of fun!

• Fancy: If a sense of sophistication is what you’re after, the Gala General Admission Ticket turns an ordinary night into a soiree.

• Fun: Ready for a blast from the past? Summon up the 70s with the bold colours of the Disco General Admission Ticket.

When you’re promoting your club or musical event, the possibilities just go on and on! Find the right design to suit your tastes and keep your club hopping until the wee hours.

Bonfire Night is almost upon us! Toffee apples and jacket potatoes, bonfires and fireworks! Make your Guy Fawkes Night an unforgettable one and forgo the door-to-door begging. If you need to raise funds, take the modern route: print brilliant full-color Event Tickets and publicity on-line.

Pre-event publicity encompasses three tiers. For tightly-focused marketing to an existing mailing list, you can print Guy Fawkes Invitations, just the thing for drawing a proper crowd. Posters and Fliers allow you to advertise to a wider audience, reaching supporters you never knew about. Hang them in shop windows with the owner’s permission, and cover the city centre with your big announcement.

General Admission Tickets and VIP Passes allow you to control the crowd, and Drink Tickets are an ideal way to earn a little more money for your organisation. You can sell them in advance or at the event. They keep your queues short and orderly and your vendors at ease. Selling more than drinks? Customise your Event Kit by printing multiple tickets for several sale items!

When the weather gets cold, manufacture your own heat. Just start gathering wood and printing Event Tickets. Let your Guy Fawkes bonfire light up the night with traditional treats and festivities, and let your Event Kit design speak for itself.

What’s in your event? If you’re like me, it’s your heart and soul. Whatever the reason for your gathering–conviviality, charity, social issues–you care deeply about the group that is to gather. You want everyone to feel comfortable. You want everyone to have as much fun as they can, or to be as productive as possible. You want things to run smoothly. You know that your events reflect on you. You want them to reflect well.

I pay attention to detail. That’s why I choose to print my own professional, affordable Event Kits. My General Admission Tickets, Reserved Seating Tickets, and VIP Passes have to look great. They speak to the success of my event before I open the doors, and I care that they speak well. That’s what I love about matching Event Kits selected for their beauty and relevance to my affair. They create a lovely and enviable sense of anticipation well in advance of the party. I can even find posters, fliers, invitations, and more publicity materials in the same design.

My tickets set the stage for my events. Yours can too. It’s easy to do a search for relevant keywords. Christmas? Hip Hop? Classic Cars? You can find what you’re looking for, and if you can’t find it, you can use your own images to create the perfect ticket, either with our DIY tool or by choosing to have a talented designer put the ticket together for you. It’s almost too easy. You may find yourself planning galas well in advance when you see all your options. You can print the right ticket faster than you can blog about it!

Who said event planning had to be a burden? Put the fun back into fund raising (or conferences and conventions, or huge social gatherings, or small, intimate theatre) with fantastic tickets for every occasion.

Consider the staple: a lowly scrap of metal with two right angles built into it. Just a piece of stiff wire, waiting to be folded around a stack of paper. In the Middle Ages, the staple had slightly different shape–more like a U–and you had to pound it in by hand. The modern age brought us the stapler, which uses leverage and makes it all the easier to bend the staple’s legs, and then the electronic version, which requires almost no effort at all.

What has any of this to do with tickets? Well, it may not have occurred to you that staples can help organize anything, including your tickets. With just the click of a button, you can turn a stack of loose tickets into neat and orderly ticket booklets. Just pull a single ticket away from the stack as you sell individual seats, leaving the rest of the tickets clean and sharp.

If you’re selling general admission seating, there’s no need to keep your tickets separated. Why not save the hassle of spills and losses by having your tickets stapled into booklets?

It’s easier to split booklets among your sales team, keep track of sales, and mobilize event sales with stapled ticket booklets. You can tell at a glance how many tickets you’ve sold, how many remain. You can slip booklets into a pocket or bad without any fear that those tickets will get away from you or become crushed at the bottom. Booklet stapling when you print your own tickets is just a smart idea for the smart business owner. You choose booklet stapling and our machines will take care of the rest.

So let’s hear three cheers for the lowly staple: keeping human lives together for hundreds of years.

It’s never a rip-off!Most good event tickets come with a perforated ticket stub, which detaches easily to keep patrons moving through the door. Your ticket taker must stay sharp on her feet. There may be a crowd of eager folks queued up for entry at the door of the theatre or disco. They want to come inside and enjoy the show, and you want them to come inside, but you can’t afford any mistakes, either.

When you print distinctive tickets, your door person can take a quick glance to ascertain that the tickets he’s been handed are genuine. Then what does he do? He rips off the stub and hands it back to the patron. You keep the body of the ticket. You may use this for accounting purposes; it can ensure an accurate headcount for your event. The stub goes back into the patron’s hand.

Then what?

• If you’ve chosen reserved seating, that stub tells the usher where to seat each individual
• Resolved disputes with ease
• Ticket stubs allow patrons to exit and re-enter the venue without confusion or hand stamps
• Gate crashers without ticket stubs are easily identified
• A pretty ticket stub remains a nice souvenir of a lovely evening

Most ticket stubs are 2 inches long: small enough to slip into a pocket, and large enough to dig out later on. Most ticket stubs are printed with a unique and identifiable design. Most ticket stubs are perforated so a quick flip of the wrist is all it takes to admit one.

It’s the little things that make our lives easier. Let’s hear it for ticket stubs!

How about youth sport?If we want to encourage children to maintain active lifestyles whilst enjoying fresh air, healthy camaraderie, and friendly competition, what can we do to encourage them? Perhaps it’s only a small step, but printing tickets for children’s sport events in the UK may be a step in the right direction.

For athletic clubs and school activities, we can encourage young people to take their physical activity seriously by demonstrating that we take it seriously ourselves. Printing and selling tickets for these events is a wonderful way to help show we care and keep everyone looking forward to the future. Tickets are lovely little reminders of upcoming excitement!

What kinds of activities deserve tickets?

• football
• rugby
• gymnastics
• swimming
• cricket
• tennis
• squash

Any organized spectator sport can be the right occasion for ticket printing.

Whether you’re the director of a popular sport club or an administrator at a school with a strong athletic program, you can show your young athletes that their hard work deserves recognition. Printing your own tickets lets you add a professional feel to the games. Perhaps you are merely distributing them to parents and family friends, but imagine the joy and pride on a child’s face when she sees her team name on a lovely ticket, just like for a professional sporting event.

If you are selling tickets, what better way to get noticed than brightly-colored, customized tickets? Sending your young athletes into the community to sell seats to their own games helps them take ownership of their skills. Your team, school, or organization will stand out from a crowd. You’ll raise funds while encouraging healthy behaviors.

Who knew printing tickets could do so much good in the world?

We’re off! Have you plans for the biggest party of the year? We have! And we’ve got the tickets to speak to it. They’re quite elegant, with little star bursts and an image of a wide-bottomed bottle to summon up all the delicious, bubbly champers we’ll be drinking this evening, to put us in just the right frame of mind for welcoming in 2009.

My man is looking fit in his tuxedo. (Who doesn’t look fit in a tux? Although I really ought to go straighten his bow tie.) I love any excuse to don that slinky black gown, strap on the towering heels (ooo…now I can look at his chin!), and carry that little beaded bag my mum found in Gran’s things. A real vintage item!

The event tickets have been teasing me for weeks, just sitting there on the cork board reminding me of the fun to be had tonight. Even a limousine couldn’t transport me so quickly, in so much style. We can’t afford a limo anyway. And besides, the ride only lasts a few minutes. The tickets are forever. When we’re old and gray, we’ll look back on the stubs in my scrap album and remember they nights we stayed out dancing ’til dawn.

You don’t want just anyone at your private affairs, do you? That’s why you’re printing event tickets in the first place. “Admit One” means just that: admission is a privilege for the ticket holder. But what if you’re worried about everyone else?

Printing your own tickets gives you a basic sense of security. Even stock designs stand out, and heavy paper has a distinct feel, so counterfeiters have more trouble copying your tickets. Of course, there are free safety features on every ticket, like individual numbering, so you specify which numbers you want in your range. And unique bar codes on the back are standard, just like the colorful watermark that’s hard to copy. You’re never in doubt as to whether or not a ticket is real when you print your own.

And for a little more money, there are thermal tickets. They’re pressure-sensitive, changing color when you rub them with a coin. They change color under ultraviolet lights, too. That’s just a smashing combo, especially if you’re in a disco and you already have a black light to start! A little black light really adds a lovely air to any event, even if it’s just at the door! Thermal tickets even have magnetic striping, in addition to everything else, and extra security numbers on the front and back.

You really can rest assured that nobody’s getting in who doesn’t belong. You just need to find the right ticket for the event.
