We are starting a program this year that offers 2-1 pricing for designated Tuesday shows and are wondering if any other organizations out there are doing this same type of offer and if so, what your logistics are around the program as well as do you offer this online?
Hi Jared,
That’s what we had thought to do as well, however we want it to be available without a promo code as it’s a season long offer and needs to be available with other offers. Plus we don’t want to allow odd numbers and want to make them purchase 2 tickets for same performance.

Hello,
Our organization has a preference for 50% off offers instead of buy one get one free. This allows patrons to buy tickets in odd numbers, prevents the tickets from being recorded as comps (yes this is just a perception thing), and it is easy to deploy on line with a promo code.

Hi,
We run a lot of BOGO offers at the museum, but they are low-tech. No online sales. Fulfillment is handled by the ticket rep entering lines for a full-price ticket, and a Comp for the second. .We’ve had a lot of success with a “kid free with paid adult” promos. We always require a full price ticket to qualify for the free one. (V12 will handle this via the pricing rules engine in development).

Hi Michele,
That doesn't sound like something we can do with basic Tessitura functionality. I think you would have to program some custom logic into your purchase path.
However, if the upcoming pricing engine rule sets are as magically delicious as they appear to be then some day we will be processing these types of sales with basic Tessitura functionality.
