Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted January 24, 2022 Paid Members Posted January 24, 2022 Having been involved in running shows in Braintree I wish you luck. Tough town to get people to see wrestling. Quote
CXwrestling Posted February 18, 2022 Author Posted February 18, 2022 Hi there . yes it’s tough so far, just over 100 sold with only 6 weeks to go!! big push on face 2 face promotion as we want to see 300 people!! hope you can make it? Be good to hear how you got on. Adam . Quote
DavidB6937 Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 Face to face is an odd approach considering so many people are still cautious because of the pandemic etc. Quote
CXwrestling Posted February 19, 2022 Author Posted February 19, 2022 I’m not getting off with them ? but no, been really positive so far. It helps I’m dressed up in macho man attire, we are hitting the families that wouldn’t normally see our stuff online. Quote

Paid Members Chris B Posted March 25, 2022 Paid Members Posted March 25, 2022 I'm actually genuinely curious how the face-to-face approach is working. Are you literally going door-to-door, or more like high streets, etc? Quote

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 25, 2022 Paid Members Posted March 25, 2022 If a guy knocked on my door dressed as the macho man offering to sell me wrestling tickets I'd be there in a heartbeat. Especially if his pitch was delivered in the style of a Macho Man promo. I bet you stick out like a sore thumb, people will come over to see what the spectacle is, and some of them will hopefully have fond recollections of having visited or seen "the graps" in their childhood. It's not the worst of sales ideas. Quote
Paid Members Chris B Posted March 25, 2022 Paid Members Posted March 25, 2022 Yeah - I'm finding it interesting hearing about local marketing like this which isn't limited to a poster in local chippies and a Facebook page. 100 tickets shifted with 6 weeks to go isn't sounding bad at all - and I'm willing to bet that it'll be a first time for a lot of them.

Don't be an idiot. Quote

This is what we used to do for FutureShock, at least in the first year. In the few weeks lead-up we'd go door to door with leaflets advertising the show, then on the day we'd have a crew go down to the nearby shopping centre and give out leaflets for the show/talk to people, try to convince them to come up on the day Quote

How many more now with one week to go though? Good luck, I went to the first show and yes it wasn't brilliant, but it certainly wasn't terrible. Edited March 25, 2022 by The Dart Quote
