Question for the group...
The Music School where I am currently the Marketing Manager (it's a
non-profit and organized much like a museum...) is considering making
all of its events free to the public next year.
Ticket prices for our concerts are typically no more than $10 each
currently. Classical music isn't the easiest thing to market, so our
revenue stream from tickets tends to be about $5K per year over the
course of 20 some shows.
Have any of you worked for a non-profit that went from charging little
money for its programs to charging none at all? Were there any pit-falls
that we should avoid?
Advice and ideas are welcome!
