We are in the middle of one of the busier weeks we have. Baseball season is winding down and the playoffs are about to heat up. We are receiving our playoff tickets right now. Many teams are traditionally slow about sending these out. It can get frustrating since we need receive them and immediately Fedex them out to buyers or to a consignment location.
Keep in mind, those of you who do baseball, most tickets do not sell until the opponent, date and venue are set. Once those are set, get ready!
October is always our most profitable month. Baseball playoff tickets sell fast and sell high. We are hoping for a New York Subway Series. This could do really well for us since we are heavy in both of those teams. We also have interest in the Angels, Indians, Brewers and Phillies. Either way, we have several teams going in which increases the probability that we are holding onto World Series tickets.

More Hannah Montana
The Hannah Montana tour has gone through great lengths to try and limit the number of tickets that go into the hand of brokers. I cannot fault them for this. I get the fact that there are a lot of kids out there who really want to go and also a lot of parents who promised them that they would get tickets. In some way I feel for those parents who are going into credit car debt to buy Hannah Montana tickets from the aftermarket. I feel less bad if they are buying my tickets though.
Regardless, it is a tough ticket to get. There are no reusable presale codes, but presales so exist. To get one, one needs to join the fan club for 29.95 a year. (www.MileyWorld.com) Once there you can get a unique presale code that is good for one use only. You can get codes for more than one events, just not on the same sale day. This is the best way to get tickets. Granted it is an extra $30, but you will be able to make that back.
Buying tickets on the general public sale requires a lot of luck. Most places are draining the inventory in less than 10 minutes. When we have tried to buy, the servers are so busy we often do not get a refreshed screen until everything is sold out.
There are several tour dates still coming and more are expected to come so pay attention.

Baseball Playoffs
For those of you who have baseball season tickets, you are probably hearing from the team about post season options. Grab everything you can. Get the full strips and if the team is offering any extra tickets, get as many as you can.
Not every team offers the extra post season tickets. The Yankees, for example, only offer the option to buy extra post season tickets to their very long term season ticket holders.
Most teams also give you a choice of either crediting the unused amount for next season or give you your money back. We always opt for the credit to next season. When we opt to get the money back, they usually do not send the check until late November or December. It is usually less than 30 days when we need to start making payments on the next season. It becomes a pain to make the payments on all the individual teams. It is easier for volume sellers to make the smaller payments later.

Jingle Bells
Last week we spoke of some key fall events. One of the most popular is the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. They have recently announced their tour dates (below). This year Thanksgiving is a little early (11/22). It is also one of those years where there are 5 weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas. This is a huge deal for retailers since weekends = more money spent. For us it means more show dates. Pick some good dates. There are plenty to choose from. You should also have seen presale-passwords starting to come out also.

Fall Preview
Fall tours are starting to make announcements. There are some high impact tours coming around. Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp and Van Halen (not Van Hagar) and some of the first big names to announce.
Fall is also a busy time for Broadway sales. Attendance really picks up in the fall peaking the last two weeks of December.
If you can get your hands on any Radio City Christmas or Trans-Siberian Orchestra on weekend nights, these should make you a nice profit.

Bigger than the Beatles?
There is at least one reporter and concert promoter is suggesting that Hannah Montana is bigger (or at least as big) as the Beatles.
http://cw2.trb.com/news/kwgn-hannah-montana-concert,0,5632814.story?coll=kwgn-home-2
We are not quite on board with the comparison yet. For starters she needs to put out her own “Sgt. Pepper” and then we can have the conversation.
Regardless, just because someone wants to have the conversation – there is a point to be made.
Hannah Montana is all the rage right now. Disney has created a string of successful shows, movies, merchandising products, family shows and concerts. He is one of the current hot products. Her fall concert tour has sold out as quickly as tickets can sell out. There are more dates coming available soon including
Oklahoma City
Glendale
San Diego
Nashville
Houston
Auburn Hills
Washington D.C.
Los Angeles
Anaheim
At the rate the sales have gone, expect even more dates to be added.

Tickemaster’s Crystal Ball
Any shrewd business who looks into the crystal ball on occasion will have to ask themselves “what else can we do?” Successful businesses have to consider ways to improve their product line, find new sources of revenue and even create new markets.
The best ever example of this was when George Lucas had the foresight to negotiate for the merchandising rights to Star Wars. He gambles that there was more money in that than the movies. He was right. The Star Wars series has made $6.5 Billion in ticket sales but has exceeded $9 Billion in merchandising fees. Come to my house some day and you will see why.
Ticketmaster is starting a new campaign called the “Ultimate Sports Fan Experiences”. Take some of the best games there are, throw in premium seats, hotel rooms, tailgate parties, VIP sections, maybe even premium traffic lanes from the stadium and put it all into a nice tidy package.
Want to see the classic rivalry of Michigan vs. Notre Dame? – you can make a weekend of it for $1,245 per person.
You have heard from us multiple that this is more than just tickets. It is experiences and memories tat motivates people to pay a premium for good seats. Having a package to extend the event is the natural evolution of ticket sales.

The best ever example of this was when George Lucas had the foresight to negotiate for the merchandising rights to Star Wars. He gambles that there was more money in that than the movies. He was right. The Star Wars series has made $6.5 Billion in ticket sales but has exceeded $9 Billion in merchandising fees. Come to my house some day and you will see why.
Ticketmaster is starting a new campaign called the “Ultimate Sports Fan Experiences”. Take some of the best games there are, throw in premium seats, hotel rooms, tailgate parties, VIP sections, maybe even premium traffic lanes from the stadium and put it all into a nice tidy package.
Want to see the classic rivalry of Michigan vs. Notre Dame? – you can make a weekend of it for $1,245 per person.
You have heard from us multiple that this is more than just tickets. It is experiences and memories tat motivates people to pay a premium for good seats. Having a package to extend the event is the natural evolution of ticket sales.
