Firearms Training Hub is getting ready to roll out an event management option for participating instructors. This would be an alternative to Eventbrite that is run on the Firearms Training Hub platform.
History: I’ve had three instructors independently approach me since I started Firearms Training Hub. They have all stated that they are unsatisfied with Eventbrite and the other event management products. While I believe the long-term, cheapest option for most instructors is to run a marketplace on their own website, there are a few folks that prefer to outsource that end of the business. I’m offering a third way that includes customized service at a low price.
I expect to offer
- Simplified pricing structure that is cheaper than EventBrite. (standard credit card processor (PayPal, Stripe, etc) fees still apply.)
- No fees for free events.
- No fees for tickets paid in cash, check, etc.
- discount codes and sales (price reductions) for classes.
- seamless integration with our current events maps and instructor profiles.
- No initialization fees, annual fees or deposit required. No strings attached. You can use our service as much or little as you like.
- I do not hold your funds. Tuition funds are processed through the instructors credit card processor (Paypal, Stripe, etc) and go directly to your account.
- Optional cancellation and refund management. (higher admin fees, and I will hold funds until event is completed)
- Full Customized service and personal support. You communicate with me directly. With a simple email, text or phone call, I can personally set up your account, list or modify events, adjust inventory, set pricing and sales, and provide tech support.
- You will have access to an Instructor Portal where you can do all everything yourself.
There's some other cool options we are looking into and I expect to go live in the next couple weeks. Contact me if you are interested or have any suggestions.
Cheers,
