Why Should I List My Freshers Week Events On Skiddle?

You’ll get the chance to use our market-leading features

The Skiddle Promotion Centre is packed with tools to help your events.

Today, we’re going to look at two features particularly relevant to Freshers Week promoters – Discount Codes and Reps.

With Discount Codes, you can generate single, multi and unlimited-use codes within minutes, attracting students to your event with cut-price tickets, seasonal offers and special deals. Plus, there are marketing benefits. Head HERE to learn how to use Discount Codes to get students into your events.

Reps, on the other hand, let people who aren’t part of your team sell tickets to your event in exchange for cash or rewards.

Both features can benefit you. After all, who doesn’t love a discount? A cut-price ticket might be the difference between a student picking your event over another.

Come September, over a million students make the university towns and cities their home, and by using our Reps feature, you can sell tickets to this new market.

Tap into a high range of visibility

Research from our development team shows that our website receives over 6.5 million visitors a month. In addition, over 340,000 people use the Skiddle app. 

This gives your events visibility. With visibility, comes a higher chance of students seeing your event and with that comes a higher chance of ticket sales. 

We have tailored student and freshers pages, too. So, potential eventgoers can find their city and browse through the events on offer. The one they pick could be yours. 

You don’t have to wait to list your events

Look, we get it: waiting is boring.

Other ticketing companies make you wait for authorisation to list your events. We don’t. In the time it takes to wait for that authorisation, you could have your event up and running on the Skiddle website.

You could sign up in the morning and have your event ready to go by the afternoon. Plus, The Skiddle Promotion Centre lets you delegate tasks to different team members. 

If you have a listing whizz on your team, you could put them in charge of creating the events while you get to work on issues that need your attention. 

Analyse your events and make improvements

We’ve spoken a lot about listing events and students seeing your events, but what happens after is just as important. 

The Promotion Centre features analysis tools that help you measure the performance of your event. 

You can view ticket sales breakdowns with the ability to select from multiple date ranges. You can also view RapidScan entry data, which shows the time attendees came through the doors. 

Having this data is helpful. It will allow you to spot trends and patterns and gauge the popularity of your event. You can then begin to compare the data over the years, using it to help with improving your event in the future. 

You’re in control

We’ve designed The Promotion Centre to give you control over the listing process. 

When you’re putting your event together, you can use the Long Description feature to communicate what attendees can expect in your own words. If your event is doing well and you’ve got room to add more tickets, you can add them in The Promotion Centre. 

There are no hoops to jump through, no waiting for authorisation from us. Sign-up is completely free and you have the power over the listing of your events.
