Don't Advertise Subscriptions in Mass Media

​​When it comes to marketing your subscriptions, there's a better way than blanketing mass media channels.  

​Let's break down why. 

​Targeted Approach 

​The most likely people to subscribe are those who have already attended a performance or visited your gallery. 

​Remember that, in a subscription campaign, you are asking someone to buy multiple performances at one time. 

​The most likely group to subscribe for the first time is anyone who has attended at least once in the past. 

​Efficiency and Customization 

​Direct marketing allows you to customize your messaging to different segments of your audience.  

​You can tailor your pitch to lapsed subscribers, enticing them to return, or craft a compelling message for single ticket buyers to consider subscribing. 

​Customization means you can talk to the patron where they are in their relationship to your organization. 

​Strategic Budget Allocation 

​Here's the kicker: When you save your subscription mass media budget for when your single tickets go on sale, you're making your marketing dollars work smarter.  

​You'll reach a broader audience, attracting both new and returning patrons.

​So, remember this: When it comes to subscriptions, think targeted, efficient, and strategic.  

​Avoid mass media and embrace direct marketing for a more personalized and cost-effective approach.
