I get this email at least once a week and it goes something like this,
I got the Booking agent package and I'm always getting booked for small shows. Why is this?
Here is the answer: We ask you, what is your average draw is (Draw means how any people can you bring to a show.)
When you state your draw is 55, this means you can sell 55 tickets to a show. When you tell us this, we set you up for that, but when your sales are actually on 3 or maybe 5 tickets per show, why would we book you for a show at the Roxy?
All these seats need to be sold... You only sell 3 tickets, and all those seats are still left open and you're on that stage, how are you feeling knowing I now have to pay for all those unsold seats?
Be honest with us, and we'll be fair to you!! If you can only sell 55 tickets in your hometown, then say so. Don't ask to have show's set up in the other 50 states if you know you can't sell what you said you could.
We will only book you for what you can sell.
SKE artists do get first shots at any shows, then it gets sent out to everyone else.
Also remember as of 5-30-2022 we are servicing more than 200 other starving Indie Artists. Please keep that in mind. One of the main reasons why what allotment of tickets we get are sold out so quickly.
