Ticket Buyer Constituency Code

Hello,

We are considering assigning a constituency code to ticket buyers.  We currently pull lists based on ticket purchase history but wondering if a ticket buyer constituency may make list pulling, reporting, etc. easier. Does anyone currently use a constituency code for ticket buyers?  I'd like to hear any feedback. 

Thanks,

Chris 

  • Hi Chris,

    We don't build lists using a Ticket Buyer constituency as there's not really enough detail as to the tickets involved - which, I guess, may or may not be important to what you're trying to achieve.  I guess it could be a very quick and simple way of adding the fact they're an active ticket buyer into a list - say of donors who are also ticket buyers.

    More often than not, we pull lists based on the first performance that constituent purchased tickets for.  I wrote a view to detail a constituents first ticket purchase upon which to base List Manager/Extraction criteria on.  Happy to share this if it's of any use - email me at martin.keen@nida.edu.au.

  • Hi Chris,

    Yes, I started doing this about 6 months ago. I applied a different constituency code for every year that someone has purchased tickets or attended any of our events.  

    For example, that means that you can see everyone who saw a performance in 2018 and 2016, but did not in 2017, or everyone who has codes for all of the last 5 years (if those sorts of things are important to you!).  

    So far I've found it really helpful!
