Subscription Ticket Income

Greetings from Orlando :)

I have a question about reports.  We are just starting our second season with Tessitura.  Up until now, I have been relying on manually keeping track of subscription income.  Of course, it would be such a time saver to be able to locate the same information in Tessitura.  Our issue is that we incorporate a facility fee (paid to the facility, which we rent) and a ticket processing fee (which we keep, but it is accounted for separately from the ticket price) into the ticket price.  I have yet to find a report in Tessitura which CLEARLY shows our actual subscription income (per package) without fees.  There are numbers on all of the reports which are not labeled so I don't know if they are fees that have been included or excluded in the final total.  

We offer a Full Season package, plus Classics Series, Evening Pops and Matinee Pops Series.  Most of our subscribers are seated in the same seat(s) for every concert in their package, but some get different seats for each concert (based either on availability or patron request).  Whether they are fixed or non-fixed, we count the income the same for each package.

My colleague and I went to the lab at Conference, but honestly, the person we spoke with was no help whatsover.

I would appreciate communicating with anyone who has experience with this or who can suggest anything that might be helpful in my quest.

  • Diane,
    A lot of organizations created custom reports for subscriptions and I think there are some that are available for download in the Shared Reports space in TASK. Do you have T-Stats? I use the package cube a lot for reporting subscription sales.
