"Selling" Special Events Online

Hi All - We would like to "sell" tickets for fundraisers online.  For the past three years, we have set fundraisers up like it is a ticketed concert, but this has not gone into the right place in the constituent record for development to see it as a donation/event attendance rather than a ticket sale.

Has anyone ever set up an "elevated event" and sold it online?

Or, I know you can set up a special event RSVP online, does anyone know if that has any option for you to take a credit card online of the event has a fee?

Anyone else come up with a creative way to sell special events, fundraisers and galas online through Tessitura?

 

Thanks

Jen

  • Hi Jennifer,

    Lynch2 helped us to develop a fundraising campaign via the web that would give both a location (seat) and create a contribution to our desired fund. Basically, they made they used a separate database for the location and then used Tessitura to submit the donation, using CSI's to send over the location data. We could have used a select your own seat if we wanted everything to be in Tessitura. The idea being that they would select a comp seat and then a donation would be sent through as well.

    Here is the URL so you can see what they did. This campaign is not live yet though.
